Fansided held a recent interview with AEW CEO Tony Khan. One of the topics discussed included Khan’s thoughts about the recent Vince McMahon sex trafficking lawsuit allegations in WWE and trying to create a safe workplace environment in AEW.

“I can’t comment on the terrible allegations against WWE right now. That’s something people are paying a lot of attention to right now, with good reason. For us, first and foremost, trying to create a safe locker room environment for everybody, women and men, and we have a really good bond.
