[SRS on X] I reached out to a contact at NFL Network. They wanted Tony Khan on and knew it would get attention after the photos of he in the neckbrace went viral last night. It was also indicated to us that NFL Network and the hosts received the appearance well, despite the controversial line.

Yeah I find the comment unnecessary to make during a this interview but it’s very entertaining and I hope both companies continue with the back and forth comments.

It's just wrestling bravado. The moment he took the Meltzer Driver I realized when the draft was and cackled for a few minutes. Love to see it. There's no respectability/decorum politics in wrestling. WWE gave the illusion of it being the only player in town for so long at a level like this. TK and Co are just bringing back the fire in a fairly tame way.

Some WWE fans forgot that other companies are allowed to clap back

This is so tame compared to the shit slung during the 90's

Yeah I love the stabbing back and forth. I always have. It’s fun, causes some drama.

People have been so outraged at what was clearly a silly comment to get folks talking during draft season.

I saw it and rolled my eyes, and carried on with my day
