Tony Khan has signed several wrestlers to AEW in recent months. The AEW President recently secured the services of notable names, including The Rascalz (Dezmond Xavier, Zachary Wentz, & Myron Reed), Andrade, Jake Doyle, and Tommaso Ciampa.

The free agency market is constantly changing in wrestling, and Khan always keeps his eye on the who is available.

“I am constantly evaluating the market and scouting for fantastic wrestlers if they are available to join AEW,” Khan said.

“And AEW is where the best wrestle, and it will be for a very long time.”

AEW has been aggressive about pursuing top talent ever since they formed in 2019.

Khan has managed several coups during that time including CM Punk, Bryan Danielson and Adam Cole.

Bryan Danielson shocked the world by showing up in AEW back in 2021

Can he persuade AJ Styles to come on over? The Phenomenal One has reportedly rejected the idea for now, but who knows how the 48-year-old will feel down the road.

Ciampa is the latest big name to jump from WWE to AEW and Khan was thrilled to get him.

“He’s a fantastic wrestler,” Khan said. “And to have somebody of his quality come in, instantly he’s additive in AEW.

“We’ve got somebody that’s joined us that can have fantastic matches, whether it’s people he’s lined up against in past wrestling matches, whether it’s an old rival or somebody fresh and new that he’s never been matched up against, there’s so many exciting possibilities for Tommaso Ciampa in AEW.”
