AEW President Tony Khan recently spoke to PWInsider and discussed, among other topics, why he decided to introduce the TBS Championship.
“I do want to mostly focus on our own roster because the AEW women’s roster has gotten so much better” Khan began, discussing the Forbidden Door and some of the outside talent that have performed in the AEW Women’s Division.
“Much as we had a lot of improvement in the first year of AEW and that’s when I launched the TNT title because I thought our roster on the men’s side had gotten so much better we could sustain a second title and really it would flourish and it would help.Â
“I think that’s where we’re at now. We built in year two the women’s roster up so much that it’s time, and it’s going to enhance the division and really, I expect everyone to flourish and we built some great stars in that time” Khan added.
