AEW’s Tony Khan couldn’t help from poking fun at Vince McMahon and his retirement.
On Friday afternoon, the 77-year-old McMahon announced that he was retiring from the WWE effective immediately.
At 77, time for me to retire.
Thank you, WWE Universe.
Then. Now. Forever. Together. #WWE #thankful— Vince McMahon (@VinceMcMahon) July 22, 2022

It didn’t take Khan long to capitalize on Vince’s retirement to promote himself and AEW.
Thanks to you wrestling fans and your great support of @AEW, I’m grateful to now be the longest-tenured CEO in pro wrestling.
Thank you very much to every single person who watches @AEWonTV!
See you for Friday Night #AEWRampage on @TNTdrama
@ 10pm ET/9pm CT/10pm PT

I'm not sure if he was trying to be funny or if he was serious, but this was pretty childish and stupid. https://t.co/jWtFVActya
