Ricky Starks Talks Tony Khan’s Reaction To His Promo On 12/7 AEW Dynamite

Ricky Starks reveals Tony Khan’s reaction to his promo from the December 7 edition of Dynamite.

Although he did end up on the losing side of his AEW World Championship match against MJF on this past Wednesday’s Dynamite, Ricky Starks was able to gain a ton of fanfare as a result of the passionate promos that he cut in the weeks leading up to the match. 

One of those promos came on the December 7 episode of Dynamite, where Starks had parts of the crowd on their feet for the entire promo segment between himself and MJF. In a new interview with Inside The Ropes, Starks talked about Tony Khan’s reaction to that promo.

“Yeah, he was very happy with it of course. Honestly, I walked [backstage] and I was like ‘Yeah, that was cool.’ Tony was like ‘Thank you so much, thank you so much Ricky that was great, that was a home run.’ It’s cool that he enjoyed it and approved of it.” 

In a previous interview, Starks revealed that he wrote and memorized the entire promo beforehand. To learn more, click here.
