Tony Schiavone took to social media on to comment on the rare television appearance made by AEW President Tony Khan during the inaugural episode of AEW Dark: Elevation.
Late Monday evening, the AEW commentator took to his official Twitter page to comment on Khan confronting AEW World Champion Kenny Omega during the debut edition of the new weekly AEW program.
"I know Tony Khan very well," wrote Schiavone following the series premiere of AEW Dark: Elevation this week. "He never wants to take up TV time with an appearance, but needed to deliver a message tonight on Elevation to an out-of-control Kenny Omega."
Schiavone added, "He's never done that on Dynamite and never intends to, but tonight he was the only one that could do it."
As noted here at Rajah.com earlier today, Khan announced during his AEW Dark: Elevation appearance that Matt Sydal will be squaring off against Kenny Omega in a title eliminator match on the March 24th episode of AEW Dynamite, and if Sydal wins, he will earn a future title opportunity against the AEW World Champion.
Check out the tweet posted by Tony Schiavone regarding Tony Khan's appearance on the first-ever episode of AEW Dark: Elevation below. Also embedded below is footage of Tony Khan's appearance on the show, as well as the official announcement regarding the aforementioned Sydal-Omega title eliminator bout on 3/24.
I know @TonyKhan very well. He never wants to take up TV time with an appearance, but needed to deliver a message tonight on #Elevation to an out-of-control Kenny Omega. He’s never done that on Dynamite and never intends to, but tonight he was the only one that could do it. @AEW
