Konnan spoke about some of the issues he had with Tony Khan in a recent episode of his Keepin it 100 Podcast.
He told his cohosts that a rift formed between him and Khan after the AEW President pulled Sammy Guevara from AAA Nocho de Campeones late in 2022. Konnan said that Khan removed the pair after another wrestler from the AEW roster received COVID, and Khan wanted Melo to replace him.
Konnan said, “Tony was really, really angry about this. I can’t believe he was mad.”
Konnan claims he couldn’t understand the need to replace Melo with a woman when there were so many on the AEW roster. Khan was upset with Konnan later after he called the wrestler from COVID “some chick.”
“I was thinking, you have so many girls and you’re going use her. Okay. Then I said, “some chick got COVID” on the podcast because I was pretty sure that he didn’t like me to mention the name. When he saw me he said, “What do you mean some girl?’ Like, give me a break dude. Would you have preferred that I say the name instead?
“It’s not being disrespectful. If you say “chick”, I think people know what you’re talking about. Is it disrespectful to say, “Hey, she’s a hot girl”? He continued.
Konnan said that AAA does not need to work with AEW and called them difficult to deal with.
“We’ve sold out everywhere. We don’t need AEW. They’re expensive, and it’s difficult to deal with them since they pull ’em at the last moment. I see that they haven’t experienced this problem with Arena Mexico. “I have no idea whether he is trying to stick it to me… because I don’t like his thing, or he has a good relationship with them and it’s easier to work together.
Konnan stated that AEW has pulled wrestlers out of AAA shows “minimum six times.”
“It was (was) before I even started criticizing him. He continued, “This is from the very beginning.”
What goes around comes around. When it happens, you will say, “Okay, I now understand what you are talking about.” So, enjoy your little fun.
