An AEW star just picked up a major win at a recent show. He shared an emotional moment with Tony Khan backstage.
Komander first made his AEW debut in 2023. Since then, he has been impressive in the ring and is known for his high-flying antics. Despite being an entertaining in-ring performer, Komander was still not able to pick up a big win that would catapult him to the next level. In the last few weeks, he has been on a losing streak in the Continental Classic tournament with three losses to his name.
Despite this, he had a massive opportunity in the ROH World TV Title Survival of the Fittest Six-Way Elimination match at Final Battle. He competed against AR Fox, Blake Christian, Brian Cage, Mark Davis, and Willie Mack. The high-flying luchador managed to turn his fortunes around with a surprise win.
Following the win, Sonjay Dutt and Tony Khan greeted an emotional Komander backstage. The AEW boss hugged him for a long time, and the two men shared a heartwarming moment.

AEW star Komander made a shocking confession after title win at ROH Final Battle
Komander is known for his fighting spirit which is what resonates with the audience. Despite being the small participant in most of his matches, he always walks in with the belief he can win even when the odds are stacked against him. But there is a reason behind his fighting spirit.
Following his win at ROH Final Battle, Komander revealed that he was born premature and nearly died twice, which is the reason for his fighting spirit since he hasn't forgotten about those days. He also said that he would never give up fighting.
Komander's words will serve as inspiration for a lot of aspiring wrestlers who are always looked down upon for their small stature.
