In a statement that was issued to Bully Ray on an episode of Busted Open After Dark, Shane McMahon addressed his recent meeting with All Elite Wrestling President Tony Khan and the photo of the two that was shared online.

“Tony and I were connected through a mutual friend and we had a great meeting, we talked about many things, but mostly about our shared love for the business, and the rewards and challenges of working with family.

I congratulated him on the five-year anniversary of AEW, and look forward to see how he evolves the business moving forward.”
