Tony Khan Discusses Asking Urban Meyer To Make A Cameo During AEW Double Or Nothing

Urban Meyer is set to embark on his first season as the Jacksonville Jaguars head coach and he’s quickly learned that late nights in the office means sometimes a wrestling match breaks out.

Meyer and assistant coach Charlie Strong made cameo appearances during Stadium Stampede at AEW Double or Nothing, helping out Chris Jericho as he fought with MJF in the coach’s office.

Appearing on Pardon My Take, Tony Khan explained how Meyer’s cameo came together.

“He’s my friend. We were at work and sometimes the crossing over. I was in his office and we were looking at the roster and he was packing up. I said, ‘Would you do me a favor tomorrow?’ ‘Sure, what is it?’ I told him what it was, to appear in Stadium Stampede. ‘It’ll be like, you and Charlie are working in your office late on Sunday night. Charlie is a huge wrestling fan, so he’ll get a huge kick out of it. Chris Jericho and MJF are going to brawl through your office while you’re working. We’ll improve a great scene.’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, sure.’ Urban is the best. Urban and Charlie were happy to do it. It was a fun crossing over of the two things,” said Khan.
