>>13523413>using the legacy of a man Tony has never met,People do tributes to people they haven't personally met all the time.
>that would hate everything AEW stands forIf Inoki would've hated the idea of the tribute or being associated with AEW so much, then it's strange that Shibata and Rocky, two men who were trained by Inoki and his grandsons are all there, implicitly giving their approval to the tribute.
> to try and sell ticketsThis was a 3 minute segment on the pre-show. I think the thing Khan was doing to try and sell tickets and pay per views was the wrestling show that came after. If anybody bought tickets or watched the pre-show specifically for the tribute to Inoki, their numbers were so small that it was probably canceled out by the cost of flying in his grandsons.
