Tony Khan comments on the importance of Twitter in wrestling

AEW President Tony Khan recently shared his thoughts on the power of Twitter in professional wrestling. He noted that we should all fully embrace it.

The co-owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars is a very active participant in the microblogging website. He has even used the platform to take fans' suggestions to improve the presentation of AEW's weekly television shows.

Khan made an appearance on Shane Strickland's Swerve City podcast. He spoke about the strength of wrestling fans on social media. The 39-year-old noted that the platform has been able to unite a diverse set of wrestling audiences.

“All kinds of people unite and bond every week over wrestling on Twitter, every day. Honestly, the fact is Twitter is a place with a lot of engagement, and I think we should embrace, for us, that for wrestling there are a lot of people who care about wrestling on there, wrestlers and fans. They have found a really special connection, and it holds up every single week where wrestling is the top trending thing on the platform on a Wednesday night and a Friday night.” (H/T Wrestling Inc)

It will be interesting to see if incorporating suggestions from fans leads to an overall better program for All Elite Wrestling.
