Ric Fair says AEW President Tony Khan “is fantastic and he is just a total gentleman”
WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair did an interview with casinobeats.com and here are a few highlights…
Casino Beats: “How are you feeling a couple of weeks on from being pulled from AEW TV after your Rotator Cuff injury?”
Ric Flair: “I’m better, I’m doing fine. I’ll probably have to have something done with it, but I have a long weekend ahead of me with two appearances. One in California and one in Chicago. And then next week, I’ll figure out when I have time to go down there and get it looked at. Tony Khan is a really great guy. The guys over in AEW are great. Wrestling is in a good place right now.”
Casino Beats: “You mentioned Tony Khan there. What’s it like working with Tony?”
Ric Flair: “I can’t say enough good things about him. He is fantastic, and he is just a total gentleman, and I think he legitimately cares about everybody. They’re not just a number to him. I think he legitimately cares about everybody that works for him.”
Casino Beats: “How does it compare to working under Vince McMahon?”
Ric Flair: “The difference between the two products at the minute is not just the technology, but it’s time as well. WWE/WWF has been around forever, and it’d be very difficult to overtake them. They have so much momentum, and now they have this new deal with ESPN. But I think it’s great for the business and for the guys that have an opportunity to work in other places as well.”
