AEW Full Gear 2026 Media Scrum: Tony Khan on Private Planes, MJF and More

AEW President and CEO Tony Khan spoke to wrestling media after a fantastic AEW Full Gear 2026 PPV on Saturday night at the Mortgage Matchup Center in Phoenix, AZ. The full scrum is above.

Travel was the story of the day. Flight problems hit the roster before the show thanks to the nationwide grounding of departing flights.

Khan said a lot of the talent booked for Full Gear wouldn’t have made it if he hadn’t sent private planes to get them there. He also gave an update on Persephone’s contract, stating she’ll be with AEW for years to come.

On the PPV, MJF came back and laid out Will Ospreay. He’s set to be on AEW Dynamite this Wednesday presumably to challenge Ospreay at next month’s World’s End PPV.

Ilja Dragunov won the AEW National Championship, Swerve Strickland and The New Level took back the trios titles in a brutally awesome Texas Deathmatch, Wrathlander won the women’s tag titles and the Creed Brothers showed up as the Kasper Brothers.
