Eric Bischoff Says Tony Khan Could Have Avoided AEW Backstage Problems

The AEW All Out media scrum ended in complete and utter disaster after CM Punk went on a scathing rant on Colt Cabana, Hangman Page, and The Young Bucks, verbally ruining everyone mentioned and then some.

Punk was involved in a backstage brawl where he fought with The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega. As previously reported, AEW has suspended everyone involved in the brawl.

Things have not been going well for AEW for the past couple of months. Andrade El Idolo was also involved in a backstage altercation with Sammy Guevara. He was actually sent home before AEW Dynamite two weeks ago. Sammy Guevara was still on the show.

While speaking on “83 Weeks, WWE Hall Of Famer Eric Bischoff addressed AzeW’s backstage issues and explained how Tony Khan could have avoided them.

“Tony has really dug himself in as the end all, be all, and he’s the CEO, he’s the head of creative, whatever six titles he has. I don’t think he’s delegated well. I think it would’ve served Tony much better, very early on, to set the stage and to create the culture, which is, I think, necessary … I think if Tony, would have not only surrounded himself, but delegated and trusted more of the more senior people around him early on, I think he would’ve quite possibly avoided a lot of this drama, because it is culture-related, and the impression I get … is that it’s just kind of a frat house backstage.”

Andrade El Idolo even made his way to AEW Dynamite to fight with Sammy Guevara. As it was previously reported, Andrade is trying to get fired from AEW. It remains to be seen whether he will remain a part of the AEW family or not.
