AEW PresidentTony Khan is certainly very passionateabout pro wrestling and no one really doubts that. However, Khanhas gained a lot of notoriety over the past couple of years. Even then, Khan will always defend his fans against critics and it appears thats what he did as he clapped back at a wrestling podcaster who called an AEW fan stupid.
Controversial wrestling podcaster JD from NY took to Twitter and commented on a backstage segment with Daniel Garcia and Orange Cassidy during the October 19th edition of AEW Collision this week and criticized everyone in the segment. He stated that Orange Cassidy has been overexposed, Daniel Garcia isnt someone anyone believes in and Tony Khan booked Private Party into obscurity.
This led to a fan stating that they believe in Daniel Garcia as well as others. In response, JD from NY called the fan stupid and stated that the only reason they believe in Garcia is due to the fact that they dont know whats really going on.
This led to AEW President Tony Khan responding to JD from NY, as he clapped back at the podcaster and questioned why he would call a fan stupid for just expressing their opinion, defending the fan in a big way.
After JD from NY claimed that he called the fan stupid simply because he could, Tony Khan stated that opinions are all subjective and Khan pointed out that he never once called the podcaster stupid in five years, despite the fact that he doesnt agree with a lot of NYs opinions.
Even Dax Harwood recently got into a heated Twitter spat with JD from NY over Jimmy Jacobs AEW exit. Nonetheless, Tony Khan will always make sure to defend his fans from unwarranted criticism, especially targeting their intelligence and many fans will always respect Khan for such actions no matter what.
