2022 is about to be a big year for AEW as the promotion has made some big signings and has some really big matchups set. Currently, there are some new contenders and President Tony Khan has big plans.
The AEW President recently sat down with Shakiel Mahjouri of CBS Sports to discuss the big plans for 2022. Tony Khan also revealed who the promotion plans to push next year.
“I think for a variety of reasons, there’s a number of people I’m excited to feature in the coming year,” the AEW President said. “For example, it was completely out of everyone’s control, but Darius Martin has been out injured and I think he’s tremendous. I would love to get him back soon and teaming with his brother, Dante. Dante has become a big star and I think they were tremendous as a tag team. When the injury happened, Darius was 21 and Dante was 19. Now Dante is 20 and has been featured so much on Dynamite and Rampage and has now been a main eventer on Dynamite. When Darius comes back, I think he’s somebody that could come in and be great for us. So I’m really excited about him in particular. That’s an important name to keep an eye on.”
Tony Khan obviously sees big things for AEW in 2022 and he doesn't plan to slow down in the new year. The promotion continues to rival WWE and is putting on great matches for the fans. AEW will be hoping to avoid injuries and continue to push the young stars.
