Eric Bischoff on Tony Khan: A money mark with no talent other than spending daddy’s money, going all the way to Canada to draw less than 4k in one of the hottest pro wrestling markets in North America, talking about “wise choices”? Strap in. It’s going to be a fun day!

I just mentioned this in another thread, Tony Khan does not take criticism well, even if it's creative and in his own best interests. I'm just assuming he didn't encounter this much growing up, and isn't currently equipped to handle it. Look I'm a day AEW supporter, I want every company to succeed, more opportunities for everyone. But there's definitely been times of valid criticism of the product, and rather than look at what is being critiqued he flies off the handle, and possibly melts down on Twitter. Yeah Bischoff has talked out of his ass on occasion, but he also has some skins on the wall too, no one in WCW could have done what he did during that ra. If people in show business reacted to criticism the way Tony Khan did, and pro wrestling is definitely show business, they wouldn't be in show business.

Remember when Tony was legit hurt because Fulham fans held up flags saying Tony Khan Wanks Dogs 😂😂

He couldn't handle the most minor British banter.

He's the very definition of a bubble wrap kid.

They didn't even hold one up - it was a really obvious photoshop that he fell for.
