The Problem with Leaks
Bischoff emphasised the gravity of the situation by pointing out that someone within the organisation is communicating with external news sites.
He believes that such internal matters should remain confidential and be dealt with internally.
Bischoff stated, “This is, in my opinion, confidential, proprietary information that should not be talked about with anybody.”
He further added that if there aren’t any clauses in the talent agreements that outline what they can and cannot disclose about AEW’s business, then there should be. If such clauses exist but aren’t enforced, then it’s a significant internal issue that needs addressing.
