AEW President Tony Khan recently opened up on what his actions would be if he saw Eric Bischoff again.
Khan and Bischoff have been exchanging heated barbs with one another starting last year. Their most recent spat came when the AEW President lashed out at the latter's "financial flop" comments towards CM Punk during the Double or Nothing media scrum.
The former WCW President then fired back through his podcast, 83 Weeks, by saying there would be a proper time and place for his response to Khan.
Speaking on The Corner podcast, Khan stated that he would still approach Bischoff properly if he saw him today.

"I haven’t spoken a bad word to him [Eric Bischoff] because we haven’t talked in a while, but I liked Eric when we talked and I’ve said this before, if I saw him right now, I think we’d probably shake hands and talk," Khan said.
He also added that the former RAW General Manager started saying negative things about Punk and the promotion's financials without knowing much.
"He just started saying some pretty negative stuff around the time CM Punk came in and I didn’t think it was really fair and he’s talked about investments and financial stuff, but he doesn’t really understand our financials." [H/T Wrestling Inc]
Bischoff appeared in All Elite Wrestling programming four times from 2020 to 2021, mainly as a moderator in segments involving Chris Jericho.
Matt Hardy reacted to Tony Khan's defense of CM Punk
On the latest edition of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, Hardy impersonated Tony Khan's expletives towards Eric Bischoff. He then shared his thoughts on the Khan-Bischoff verbal jousting.
"That was tremendous. It was said very well. You have Eric Bischoff and his opinion on one side, and then Tony Khan and his opinion. The thing that was so interesting is he went into the facts, and the records, and the physical evidence of why things have been so good."
As of right now, Bischoff hasn't responded to Khan's latest statements. It will be interesting to see how the WWE Hall of Famer approaches the kind words from the latter.
