-- AEW CEO Tony Khan, who received significant media coverage during the NFL draft for showing up on camera wearing a neck brace as a result of "injuries" suffered on Dynamite, has donated $100,000 to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital.
-- Khan appeared on the Rich Eisen Show and initially gave up the neck brace to auction off for charity as he had earlier promised. However, Khan then bid $100,000 for it and said Eisen can keep it on the set of his show essentially making his bid a donation.
.@AEW owner/CEO @TonyKhan stopped by ahead of #AEWDynamite here in Los Angeles to talk about getting a TK Driver, wearing the neck brace in the @Jaguars #NFLDraft war room and why it'll be forever in our studios!
