AEW recently hired Michael Mansbury, who was the Vice President of Global Television Production in WWE. Since the news broke, fans started speculating that AEW may be making some changes to their production. Now, Tony Khan has also confirmed the rumors.
Tony Khan recently appeared on Fightful’s Grapsody podcast where he confirmed that AEW Dynamite will be undergoing some changes, not from the production standpoint. He also confirmed that there will be a new look to the show, including a different set and visual changes.
“The wrestling is going to be the same great wrestlers and the same great fans, but it’s in a new city, Seattle, and the look, the changes to the set, and the presentation are going to be changes that we’re going to keep. I’m really looking forward to the new look for the show. I find, in wrestling, when you overpromise, you can disappoint people. It’s a set and a presentation. At the end of the day, the most important thing is what the fans bring, what the wrestlers and the staff of AEW and the crew bring every week, but the look of the show is important too and it’s going to look really cool,” said Tony Khan
AEW Dynamite is long overdue for some visual changes, and it will be interesting to see how the show’s production quality improves next year. Stay tuned to Ringside News for live coverage of AEW Dynamite.
