Tony Khan is not only the President of All Elite Wrestling but also its main booker. He recently revealed that top names like Chris Jericho and Jon Moxley have all assisted him in various decision-making processes in the company.

Fans have not always been happy with the way certain wrestlers are portrayed in the Jacksonville-based promotion. At the same time, AEW has made some really well-received decisions that fans have been thrilled about on social media.

During his interview with Forbes, Tony Khan praised his company's personnel for their contributions.

"I work with a lot of really smart people. And what I think I do a good job of is being organized and dealing with a lot of different people and going for ideas."

The 39-year-old then noted that the biggest names in the organization, namely Jericho, Moxley, and even CM Punk, all assisted him in making AEW's creative decisions.

"I have a lot of great creative minds that are in the company that I can have full time access to like Chris Jericho and Christian Cage and Jon Moxley has great ideas. And now CM Punk and Bryan Danielson, Adam Cole have come in with great ideas," Khan revealed. - (H/T: Rajah.com)

Khan is seemingly still learning, but with the help of veteran wrestlers, he'll likely create a more robust product in the form of All Elite Wrestling moving forward.
