Noooo my identity
Tony says there are a lot of great people in wrestling media and if he was hooked to a lie detector it would've exploded. He wishes us a happy Full Gear and says he will see us at World's End

Tony says he's seen wrestling companies where they pay for the songs the night of but not for replays. Tony says not him, he's happy to pay in perpetuity so that decades from now those songs will stay in the shows in archives.

Tony asked about Hangman's licensed music tonight. Tony shouts out his team for getting it done, it was a race against time. Tony Khan, America's Hottest DJ.

Tony says the first ROH shows he bought were Joe/Kobashi and Danielson/KENTA. Those are good choices!
November 23, 2025 at 7:35 AM
Tony asked if Joe's old work will be featured on Youtube. Tony excitedly notes they already have! Plugs Honor Club. Man, what kind of loser watches old ROH, or starts a podcast about it. Not me.

Tony says he eats and breathes and sleeps wrestling. He loves it and is obsessed with it. DO YOU SHIT IT? IF YOU EAT IT, THAT IS LOGICAL
November 23, 2025 at 7:34 AM
Tony says he was working hard a year ago and again states he thinks that they're in a better place this year. Tony says it takes a special fan to be into wrestling, a sport with no off season, mentioning how when he was young he even missed some shows at different periods
November 23, 2025 at 7:34 AM
Tony asked about burn out. Tony says no, he's never missed a show, hasn't taken a break from wrestling in a long long time, he loves it. Tony says every day he is so grateful to be in the chair, and for the most part, fans seem to want him in the chair.
November 23, 2025 at 7:34 AM
Tony asked about some of WBD's suitors being tied to WWE and is he worried? Big Tony grin. "I am not worried at all", says he is very very very very optimistic about AEW's future, and I may have missed one very

Tony asked if he still scouts wrestling. Tony says yes, sometimes he still goes to indies.
November 23, 2025 at 7:33 AM
(Tony also dropped a nice Chi-Town Rumble reference. Tony in full 80s reference mode tonight.)
November 23, 2025 at 7:33 AM
Tony talks a bit about how doing afternoon PPVs opened up interesting possibilities. Says they were contracted to do PPVs that go 3:45, so at least that long.
November 23, 2025 at 7:33 AM
Tony views Saturdays and Sundays as different. Says on Saturdays he goes to MMA and boxing shows where the main starts at 1am and the shows are hours longer with much longer gaps between bouts.

Tony gives Mercedes tons of credit for all the business that she's brought to indies.
November 23, 2025 at 7:32 AM
Tony says CMLL and New Japan are interested in National Title defenses. Notes that when it's defended at Final Battle, that'll be the first AEW title defense ever in ROH. Says you couldn't ask for a better first champ than Ricochet.
November 23, 2025 at 7:32 AM
Tony also throws in that hearing Paul Wight and Tony tonight made him miss Elevation. (He wasn't saying they're bringing back Elevation.)
November 23, 2025 at 7:31 AM
Tony asked if Mercedes' indie run inspired the creation of the National Title. Tony seems to indicate that's part of it in addition to international wrestling, ROH's success on Youtube, the waxing and waning of the moon, so many factors.
November 23, 2025 at 7:31 AM
Action figure guy asks Tony about the AMBIGUITY of AEW's relationship with Jazwares. Tony thinks it's a great question but he'll have to spend more time to give you a thoughtful answer. They've had a great relationship, hopes it continues, but is unsure at this time.
November 23, 2025 at 7:31 AM
Tony throws in Mike Bailey as a 2026 breakout in addition to Kevin Knight. Tony then mentions Willow, which gets actual applause. YES. PUSH HER. PUSH HER NOW. Tony says he could name 27-28 other names though.
November 23, 2025 at 7:31 AM
Tony asked to name 3 wrestlers who could break out in 2026. Renee says she has a good one: Kevin Knight. "That's my guy." Tony thinks that's a great answer.
November 23, 2025 at 7:30 AM
Tony asked about returning to GALAXY CON. Tony says this year they have a bigger space there to run. Wanted to do it bigger this year.
November 23, 2025 at 7:30 AM
Tony doesn't have all the data yet but from advance buys thinks this'll be their biggest PPV yet in the HBO Max era. (I think that's what he meant, a little Trev interpretation of comments here. He says it did well, that's as much as I can say for sure.)
November 23, 2025 at 7:30 AM
Tony thinks this has been their most consistent year, they're batting a thousand. Thinks the PPVs were just as good last year, but the TV has been more consistent this year.
November 23, 2025 at 7:30 AM
Tony last year felt embattled during this period and this year he feels the opposite. He felt like Full Gear last year was the beginning of a big turn around for them. Always interesting to hear Tony admit to lulls once he's at a safe distance from them
