Jericho on social media argued with CM Punk’s Lawyer Stephen P. New, where Jericho claimed that he didn’t sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) like Punk did after the All Out 2022 Brawl with The Elite.

These things were brought to AEW World’s End by the fans as there was a huge chant of NDA and Kyle Rae during his match. Following this AEW CEO Tony Khan was asked about the issue, and he responded to it.

Tony Khan on Chris Jericho Allegations

Tony Khan was asked about the allegations against Jericho at the AEW Worlds End Post Media Scrum, where the AEW boss claims that AEW is the safest promotion in the world. He stated that he can’t speak to unsourced rumors and if anything is brought to his concern, he has a disciplinary committee to take care of the issues.

“I think it applies to everyone in the company, women and men, and it’s something we’re very serious about and we’ve had a policy in place and certainly, anytime there is anything like that, we would make sure we do everything we can to prevent it.

“AEW has the best safety record, I believe, of any pro wrestling company in the world. I believe we have the most safe environment. I believe we have the best safety record of any pro wrestling company, and I would hold the record of AEW on safety against any wrestling company in the world and I think AEW is the safest place for pro wrestling.”

“If any of our wrestlers ever have a concern, they always have an open line to talk to me and I believe anybody would sit here and tell you, they always can talk to me anytime they are concerned about anything.”

“If there was anything that came to light to me, I would take it to the disciplinary committee and that’s how we’ve been doing it. Our disciplinary committee has been doing a great job and everybody knows they have an open line to me or anybody on that committee.”

“I can’t speak to internet and unsourced rumors. I spoke earlier to Kevin and mentioned the policy we have in place and the disciplinary process.”

“We’ve always followed that and I believe is the safest wrestling company in the world and we have the best track record for safety, and I would hold it up to anybody and anytime anybody has any kind of a complaint, they have an open door to say it to me or anyone in the office and we would look into it, anytime.”

Kylie Rae wouldn’t have signed an NDA with Chris JerichoShe would’ve signed it with her employer (AEW/Tony Khan) in exchange for her immediate release. Tony has known about Jericho all along, and yet he still poked fun at Vince’s allegations. pic.twitter.com/aQrGiLePvc
