AEW has recently faced numerous claims of backstage drama, which was heightened by CM Punk's Dynamite promo. In light of all the issues, an AEW Executive has responded, slamming the accusations against the promotion. All Elite Wrestling has always been praised for its unscripted promos and creative freedom. Numerous WWE Superstars jumped to the promotion after the praise circulated. Unfortunately, things might not be as perfect as they seem, with rumors spreading about backstage drama. During his recent appearance on the What Happened When podcast, Tony Schiavone detailed his experience working in AEW. "[I] enjoy my job, enjoy my new responsibilities with the company. They are challenging, but those are challenges that I readily accepted when I took the job. I'm seeing a whole new part of wrestling and wrestlers that I didn't see before," Schiavone said.

According to WCW veteran Konnan numerous AEW stars have approached him to complain about their booking While Tony Khan has only been running All Elite Wrestling for three years, he's received quite a lot of backlash for his booking decisions since late 2021. Khan is currently the sole booker of the promotion, having the final say on angles despite creative freedom. During the most recent episode of Keepin' It 100, Konnan recounted a conversation he had with Tony Khan. “He asked me ‘is this what WCW was like?’ I go ‘this is exactly how WCW started to get’ and he was like ‘oh f**k. The last time I was there, bro you have no idea how many people came up to me and they were p***ed with the booking! They weren’t happy with how they were being used and they were very, very vocal about it,” Konnan said. [3:22 onward].
