Fightful has an update on that and what the communication process is like in AEW.
>Gresham met with Tony before the show and was very heated about his booking and character direction
>People that Gresham were said to have spoken to within the company are QT Marshall and Sonjay Dutt
>Gresham’s main gripe was with his character direction/creative and when communicating this to AEW officials they said these types of conversations had to go through Tony as he has final say on creative.
>Gresham was unable to secure any meetings with Tony up until before the PPV
>Process of communication is to relay things to a coach like Pat Buck, Sonjay or QT who then pass things onto Tony if talent can’t get to him directly. It’s said Tony and coaches are frequently in communication.
>Tony tries to make it a point to get to talent directly but things have obviously became a bit more tedious with them being back on the road as opposed to Daily’s Place.
>Gresham met Khan and staff early in the afternoon. They then had a private meeting alone where staff could overhear the conversation in another room.
>TLDR: Gresham didn’t like the way his character was headed and it reached a boiling point with everything compiling into that snowball.
