AEW talent aren’t happy with Tony Khan’s booking of William Regal.
In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer revealed that a “lot of talent” in AEW has questioned Tony Khan’s booking decision. It seems strange that Regal was put front and center of a story involving the AEW World Championship title change, only to be written off the television a few weeks later.
But all that is fine, but I can’t understand putting so much heel steam to the point of being the point man in stealing the title on Regal, when it was known by the key people by this point he was gone in a few weeks. I mean, story or not, the guy was leaving. A lot of talent has questioned that in the same way now that everyone knows he’s leaving.

Previously, it was believed that Regal was tied in for three years, making a WWE return seem unlikely. However, it has been revealed since that Regal had an out in his contract which he appears to have taken.
