Wrestling fans on Twitter have once again criticized Tony Khan for reaching out to Jeff Hardy and Keith Lee while they were under contract with WWE.
A recent report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has suggested that when Triple H first took over creative from Vince, he contacted several former Superstars.
According to the report, The Game was seemingly interested in a few names that were fired by Vince McMahon or left on their own.
In response to the same, fans recalled AEW president Tony Khan reaching out to former WWE stars similarly and criticized him for the same. Some even mentioned that Jon Moxley had verbally agreed to join the Jacksonville-based promotion while under contract with WWE.

Multiple AEW Superstars reportedly want to jump ship to WWE from Tony Khans' AEW
According to a recent report, multiple AEW stars are reportedly open to jumping ship to WWE under Triple H.
The Game recently took over as the Head of Creative for the company following Vince McMahon's retirement. In recent weeks, numerous former WWE stars have returned to the company, including Braun Strowman, Karrion Kross, and Hit Row.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has reported that a number of stars have asked for their release from AEW. Malakai Black was one of the stars who reportedly wanted to depart Tony Khan's promotion but it looks he wasn't the only star looking to leave:
"When Paul Levesque [Triple H] took over from Vince McMahon, WWE contacted a number of former WWE talents that were working there that either had left on their own or that Vince McMahon had fired. [Malakai] Black was not the only person to ask for his release at the time," said Meltzer.
One star who did leave AEW and return to WWE was Cody Rhodes. The American Nightmare made his re-debut at WrestleMania 38 earlier this year.
