All Elite Wrestling chief executive Tony Khan said he remains the sole arbiter of the company’s creative direction, dismissing as “ridiculous” persistent rumors that recent signee Mercedes Moné had negotiated the right to dictate her own storylines. “I am the only person with creative control over the show. I’ve had the final say since day one,” Khan told reporters on a media call promoting the 31 August ‘All In: Texas’ stadium event. Khan also outlined plans for the men’s singles titles, stressing that the AEW International and Continental Championships are not being retired. Instead, their lineages will continue under a newly established AEW Unified Championship, preserving historical records while streamlining the title picture ahead of the pay-per-view. Asked about roster turnover, Khan said he has never discussed an exit from the promotion with former women’s champion Britt Baker, indicating the longtime talent remains part of AEW’s plans.
