-- Tony Khan is back at it on Twitter/X, this time taking a shot at Jinder Mahal in a tweet aimed at the USA Network. It all started when someone pointed out that Mahal and Seth Rollins had previously wrestled in NXT to which the USA Network asked what the Cagematch rating was for that bout. For those that don't know, Tony Khan regularly cites Cagematch's fan ratings to further support the strength of his shows and it something of a joke in inner circles as less than 200 people vote on the shows/matches.
-- Khan first tweeted his disapproval at how the public criticized his creative of having Hook challenge champion Samoa Joe despite his strong win-loss record, yet there is no outrage when Mahal wrestled Rollins, despite not having won a match in a year. In response to USA's jab, Khan took another shot at Jinder's winless record, prompting the Modern Day Maharaja to come out of the woodworks to ask who Hook is. You can see the exchange below.
A double standard:@730hook 28-1 career record, on winning streak calls out the Champ, a logical challenge sparks online outrage
Jinder has literally lost every single match he's in for the past year, immediately gets title shot, where is the rage#AEWDynamite TOMORROW on TBS— Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) January 9, 2024
A moral victory for USA is one win more than their World Title challenger Jinder Mahal has in the past 364 days... because it's been literally a full year since he won a match.
You really put AEW in our place getting Jinder Mahal in a big match on your tv show. Do it more often https://t.co/0kpuUsvkm1— Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) January 9, 2024
