Tony Khan has received his fair share of criticism in recent years for his booking decisions in both AEW and Ring of Honor. While it could be argued that some of that criticism is valid, Khan recently lashed out at a fan on social media who he felt unfairly criticized an episode of ROH on HonorClub.
X (formerly known as Twitter) user Noah Gilbert posted a card from the July 31st episode of ROH to HonorClub, stating, “This is just one example of the disaster that happens these days.” He went on to say that he would like ROH to go back to its roots and run singles shows again. This post was spotted by Khan who responded with this post.
“These days”. It is October. This TV was in July. Since then the awesome ROH Death Before Dishonor ppv took place in August. It was highly praised. There was some free ROH TV on YouTube last night with a ton of action. You picked up a TV months ago and called it ‘these days’.

“These days”. It’s October. This TV was in July. Since then there was a great ROH Death Before Dishonor ppv in August. It was widely praised. There was free ROH TV on YouTube last night with a ton of action. You picked up a TV months ago and called it “these days”. – Gilbert went on to answer “Issues” by saying “Issues.” This is weekly programming that has become a largely missed opportunity, and if ROH’s idea is to develop young talent, it just isn’t working.
Khan was once very active on social media, taking shots at people criticizing his work. He regularly shot the likes of Paul “Triple H” Levesque, Eric Bischoff and even the US network itself for mocking him or his booking decisions, but has since calmed down when it comes to firing back at people and has even publicly stated that he enjoys using social media to keep AEW’s true fans well-opinionated about the product, whether positive or negative.
