The Khan Job

In this episode of Kliq This, titled "The Khan Job," Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver discuss the ramifications of Tony Khan's decision to feature himself in a controversial on-camera segment in AEW, as well as the earlier decision to air footage of the CM Punk altercation. They critique the choice to broadcast these incidents, debating its potential damage to the promotion’s reputation and its impact on fan perceptions and trust.

The hosts express concern about the blurring lines between reality and kayfabe, and how such decisions could alienate viewers by undermining the narrative coherence and authenticity expected in professional wrestling. Their conversation explores the long-term consequences these choices might have on AEW’s ability to maintain viewer engagement and loyalty.

Listen to Nash and Oliver as they bring their straightforward and engaging style to this discussion, offering insights into the complexities of wrestling promotion management and the importance of maintaining a credible and respectful relationship with the audience.
