Tony Khan is no stranger to taking shots online. After all, Gabe Kidd just called him a butthurt rat, but that didnt land Kidd in much trouble. The same is not true for one NJPW commentator who dared to take a shot at TK.
Chris Charlton has been a topic of discussion in wrestling after calling Tony Khan a money mark during commentary at AEW x NJPW Wrestle Dynasty. That comment was heart by a lot of people, and many have commented on it.
Tony Schiavone addressed the situation on social media in a now-deleted tweet. He told Charlton to go f*ck himself, as he used the popular GFY acronym. He also added a comment suggesting Charlton doesnt have the best hygiene practices.
Chris Charlton has been put on a hiatus following his off-color comment about Tony Khan. Obviously, this was a statement that blew up in a way that he may not have expected.
Tony Khan comes from a lot of money, and he was also a massive fan of pro wrestling before starting AEW. This money mark accusation has been floated around before, but its obvious that he isnt okay with the idea gaining steam.
We will have to see if he makes a return to NJPW commentary any time soon. At this point, it doesnt seem that hes won any favors with his comment about Tony Khan. This reaction from Tony Schiavone certainly proves that he wont let someone make that kind of comment without some fire coming his way.
