Mason Madden Says Tony Khan Told Him That They Met Back In 2012 For A NFL Draft Interview

Mason Madden recalls meeting Tony Khan… for the second time.

MxM Collection (Mason Madden & Mansoor) made their debut for Ring Of Honor at the Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view in July. The duo have went on to have success in AEW, facing teams like Private Party, Top Flight, and House Of Black.

As it turns out, this is Madden’s second time working for Tony Khan. While appearing on the latest edition of the AEW Unrestricted podcast, Madden recalled Khan telling him about their first meeting back in 2012.

“Two-time, two-time, two-time Khan family employee. We’re meeting Tony before our Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view and Tony walks up to me and is like, ‘Hey, do you remember when I came and interviewed you in 2012 at the University Of North Carolina at Chapel Hill? You were 315 pounds and we were looking to draft you and we didn’t end up getting you but we would love to get you, which is why we got you.’ I had no memory that Tony Khan interviewed me in college because it was so long ago. I knew I worked for them when I was with the Jags, but to my shock and surprise, he had come and met me when I was just a wee lad at the University Of North Carolina.”
