AEW President Tony Khan has revealed that AEW is looking to further expand its already stacked roster as part of its "huge expansion" plans.

Tony Khan revealed that the crowd's presence would provide a "boost" to the card and that fans can expect some great surprises on the show. The AEW head-honcho also stated that the company is looking to add more talent to the roster, with some of them possibly even appearing at the May 30th pay-per-view.

“There’s gonna be a huge expansion of the company and I think that’s where Double Or Nothing comes in. Our huge signature pay-per-view, we take our quarterly events seriously. I want Double Or Nothing to be one of the great pay-per-views we’ve done and I think the return of crowds is gonna help boost this great card. But I also think that we have to start expanding the roster in AEW and there’s gonna be great moments and great surprises on the show.” said Tony Khan (H/T - Inside The Ropes)
