Tony Khan: We Have Some Of The Best Women In Wrestling In ROH, I Love Working With These Great Stars
Tony Khan enjoys working with some of the best women’s wrestlers in the world in Ring of Honor.
Ring of Honor in its present form shines a very big spotlight on women’s wrestling. Athena and Billie Starkz recently headlined ROH Final Battle 2023 and Athena continues to be the main star of the Ring of Honor brand that doesn’t have any major crossover onto AEW programming.
When asked to speak on the focus given to women’s wrestling in the current ROH during a media call ahead of ROH Supercard of Honor 2024, Tony Khan tells Fightful’s Kate Hensler that he enjoys working with the women stars in Ring of Honor and considers them to be some of the best women’s wrestlers in the world today.
“I love working with these great stars and we have some of the best women in pro wrestling in ROH today,” Tony began. “We have these huge matches on the card and, in addition to the presence from STARDOM that we’ve talked about, which is making the card even stronger, we’ve got great Championship matches, including the first-ever ROH Women’s World Television Championship match, crowning a new champion. Who will be the inaugural champion? Will it be Queen Aminata or will it be Billie Starkz?
“We’ve seen both of them rise and improve and change so much, they both had some great matches on the road to this championship bout, and I think it’s going to be tremendous,” he said. “Then, you’ve got this great World Championship match with [Hikaru] Shida and Athena. I’ve talked about it a bit on this call, but I think it’s really important to focus on, Shida has beaten Athena before, frankly, and we’ve never seen Athena this shaken. We’ve never seen Athena this shook. I really love what’s happening and I just think that right now in ROH, we’ve built it into some of the best wrestling around and in particular, some of the best women’s wrestling, and it’s a lot of fun, and I think people are going to enjoy the show in Philadelphia tomorrow.”
