Tony Khan Reacts To final 30 Minutes Of SmackDown Being Commercial Free
This Friday AEW Rampage and WWE SmackDown will be going head to head for the first time and AEW president Tony Khan has not held back on talking about the situation, Recently in an interview saying that the past Monday Night RAW show “sucked”.
In an Interview today Khan commented about An ad aired on October 10th for SmackDown which promoted the last 30 minutes of the show as commercial-free. While on that topic, Khan said he can go that route as well because he has more money.
It’s a little bit different than the Wednesday Night Wars because that was from the very beginning of Dynamite and we put our head down and it was an every-week thing. This seemed like pretty predatory, which is fine if that’s how you want to play it. It’s not outwardly how they’ve (WWE) shown they wanted to play it.
I’ve coined a phrase which is WYW, watch your wrestling. Whatever people [want] to watch, I want them to watch it. Unfortunately, if we are on at the same time it’s harder for people to watch their wrestling, at least live. We can take the commercials out of it. If you want to take the commercials out of it, I can do that too. It doesn’t seem very civil but I have more money than they do so I can afford to do that longer than they can. But that’s how we make money at the end of the day, so I was surprised when they took those out.
It will be interesting to see how ratings turn out over the weekend.
