Tony Khan to Reportedly Buy New Wrestling Promotion’s Rights to Boost Ratings After Triple H & WWE Pull Out

WWE has been dominating the pro wrestling industry for a long time, although Tony Khan hopes to put a dent in its success by establishing himself as one competitor, standing in its way. Despite how well Triple H‘s promotion is doing among fans, AEW refuses to bow down to the competition. This has resulted in him making some decisions that often divide fans over the internet.

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful recently talked about how Khan could be looking forward to buying a new wrestling promotion that could give him an edge over WWE’s dominance for certain reasons.

Tony Khan might explore avenues to acquire Lucha Underground

Lucha Underground is a promotion that consists of wrestlers who are already widely known by wrestling fans. According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, if Khan can bag the entire promotion and its roster, then he may entice fans into going ‘All Elite’. The reporter said“Tony seems like the kind of guy that would just buy the Lucha Underground Library because WWE is no longer in library acquisition mode. He should.” The pro wrestling insider added, “Just like for wrestling history, the fact that you can go back and watch so much of those things and see people that you recognize who are major dudes now, that is a really cool thing.”

Since Triple H may not be interested in acquiring the entire Lucha Underground roster, Khan could end up buying the promotion with little difficulty and competition. According to Sean Ross, it can prove to be an efficient way of making fans get on board with the promotion.

More reports online are suggesting that 2024 might be the year that AEW makes a comeback compared to the issues that it faced last year. Apart from the Lucha Underground report, we have one more good news for you if you are a fan of the Florida-based promotion.

Khan is drawing insane revenue

AEW had experienced a decline in its ratings, revenues, and attendance. However, the promotion had a comeback from that place as the first quarter of 2024 is coming to a close. According to reports from Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, AEW is in a much better place than it was in the last few months of 2023.

He reported on Twitter, replying to a fan argument that there has been a grand addition to the revenue that Tony Khan is drawing this year starting in Q1. The President of AEW could be turning the tide around. Do you think he can compete toe-to-toe with WWE in the future? What do you make of Khan’s potential decision to acquire the wrestling promotion?
