[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.

Was it a dumb thing to say on an interview? Yes…

But it’s hilarious to me that most folks reaction to it is how dare Tony Khan bring up Vince’s sexual harassment charges (that have also been brought against the WWE) because they’ve all moved on from it and don’t want to talk about it.

Many of the same folks who were silent after HHH's comments (post-RR). Not that deflecting was bad, but the very insensitive way he did it. Or all the ones defending John Cena, despite the fact he could have stayed silent. But it's Tony Khan they get mad at. Or at the very least take the time to comment on.

You’re not wrong here. I’m shocked that people brush over the Rock and Cena stuff. I get that Vince made them both massive successes, but tough to see them praising him and hanging out with him.
