Tony Khan Confirms Changes To AEW Shows For Next Year – Changes are coming to AEW next month following the hiring of WWE’s former Vice President of Global Television Production, Mike Mansury, who now serves as AEW’s Senior Vice President and Co-Executive Producer.
As previously reported, part of the deal of hiring Mansury is that Warner Bros. Discovery and AEW President Tony Khan decided to change the look of the show with it going into effect in January at some point. The extent of these changes is currently unknown. It could be simple changes like graphics or more extreme changes such as a new stage set up or increased production value.
While speaking with TV Insider, Khan confirmed that they will have a new look.
“I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag necessarily, especially so close to the big day. But at the start of 2023, we’re going to open the year on Wednesday, January 4 with the first Dynamite in Seattle, marking a full year of Dynamite on TBS. We’ll definitely have a new look, to say the least. I’m excited about it. I think it’s a nice thing to present to the fans, but frankly, I’ve found more so than ever, the more you talk about these things. When you build them up, you don’t want to create expectations that are impossible. I will say the set will be beautiful though. The look of Rampage will also be different. This will affect the way people view AEW on Wednesdays and Fridays in terms of presentation with the set and the show with the same great action.”
Khan also praised Mansury for what he brings to the table by helping the promotion further grow with his TV production knowledge and elevating the presentation.
