Tony Khan thinks highly of the All In: Texas pay-per-view but now hes claimed that his longtime friend felt the event had the best payoff to long-term stories since WrestleMania 3.
While speaking to Q101, Tony Khan talked about AEW All In: Texas and shared how his friend Todd reacted to the event. Khan called it their big success story and said it was also simply the best wrestling show they could have delivered. Khan says Todd was actually the first person to introduce Tony to the idea of running weekly shows back in the Aragon Brawl Room days and gave him the highest praise.
Todd told Tony Khan it was the best wrestling show hed ever seen when it came to building up stories for a big event. He wasnt just comparing it to AEWs competition now, but even looking back to 1987.
At that time, Tony Khan was only four years old and hadnt even become a wrestling fan yet. Meanwhile Todd, who is about five years older, was already watching wrestling and that period was a huge part of his childhood. Khan believes thats likely why he holds shows from back then in such high regard.
Khan says his friend Todd felt that every match on the All In Texas card delivered a great payoff. Even if the wrestling style was different compared to the old days, he thought it was the best culmination of stories since WrestleMania 3 in 1987.
Khan was blown away by that, especially knowing how much wrestling Todd has watched over the years. He took it as the ultimate compliment from someone who has followed the business closely for decades. In the end, Tony just summed it up by saying All In: Texas was truly a great show.
Its clear Tony Khan views All In: Texas as one of AEWs proudest moments, and hearing it compared to WrestleMania 3 is the ultimate compliment, since thats all that really matters to Khan in the end.
