TL DR (editting as im reading it)

- Has known Tony since prior to AEW, has a good business relationship with him, as well as a friendly one.
- Is currently happy with the current partnership, names NWA womens title and THUNDER ROSA as 2 examples of things being ebenficial to both companies
- has an odd tangent about other promotions world champions being 5'9 (no idea who the hell that would be) that he uses to say why he likes big guys.
- He circles back and clarifies that he prefers good storytelling and in ring dynamics between two different sized people (that makes more sense). pumps up thunder rosa and kamille as an example of good storytelling/dynamics
- says he's always open to working more with AEW, but that they are currently in a bit a of a rebuild due to the pandemic.
- talks some shit about impact, clearly is not happy with them stealing talent from them and names Dixie by name, lol
- Brings up that the challenge is always to convince fan that they are on equal grounds, and says that , for example, Impact looks inferior to AEW , because they are, and it doesnt always translate well.
- doesnt think he needs any sort of invasion angle, as AEW doesnt need their talent. loves what they are doing with rosa and deeb
- now that im thinking about it, the 5'9 comment is probably a shot at impact and SWANN lol
