I love how they're just like "Maybe if we ask it a fifth time, Tony will give a different answer"
Like... what are they expecting? Lol

I mean, he gave the PR answer the first two times, I don't know why you thought he'd magically give a different answer the third time.

Dude legit sounded like a kid who got caught stealing cookies trying to word that question to Tony, like embarrassed to be asking it because he already answered it twice but didn't want to change his notes...

But he didn't answer it a single time, he just floated around it so they should constantly ask about it. And nobody has brought up the fact that the crowd was openly pushing it at Jericho and they seem petrified of actually making Tony uncomfortable, which makes them pretty cowardly.

Tony speaking so passionately about TWO separate women's divisions is insane considering that answer he gave just at All In a few months ago. Something changed lol

What else is he going to say though? Just generally he gave the most direct answer he can, he called the stuff unfounded rumors which is pretty much denial and said they follow the same protocol they always have, and nothing else has come out news wise for him to say anything different to it yet. Basically sounds like he'll be ready to lawyer up if this is pushed further and handle it that way if there's nothing else Hausman has or wants to push it further.

I'm gonna be honest about 60% of Andrade's appeal to me was his banger WWE theme I like Andrade, but you're not wrong, that theme is f***ing fantastic. EL IDOLO! guy got two really great themes

TBH I prefer these redundant questions to "When are u coming to city" or "Would u like to wrestle this wrestler". What a waste of time those are.

No he didn't, he just said they're unsourced internet rumors and that's it. It was repeatedly a yes or no question and he never said yes or no.

I would have point blank asked βhas Jericho ever been involved in any sexual harassment conduct in the company: yes or no?β But im not a journalist where the jobs the bread and butter and you obviously donβt want to burn connections. But yea somebody should have asked his opinion on the reaction to Jericho. Though he probably would have said βthe crowd can react however theyβd likeβ. Either the fan consensus gets worse or this becomes old news. Weβve seen stories go either which way.

From my experiences (which are limited) you really don't acknowledge something until an actual allegation comes out.

He never does, he gives PR responses so nothing can be used against him if something happens which is what all these guys are gonna do He's not gonna say anything different, after the second time that should have been obvious. I don't really think pressing him is gonna change anything.

He's a billionaire CEO of a wrestling company with a whole lot of drama and shit happening the past year, he shouldn't be so comfortable in front of journalists.

At the same time is it really a good idea to wave this around when the sources and overall information about it is so scattershot and not conclusive? Like this just sounds like you want Khan to be pressed in general and that's fair, but constantly bringing this up when there's only one response to give with what's been given from the alleged source isn't gonna magically get Chris Jericho fired tbh, unless more comes out this is just what it is from Hausman so... I don't really know what else he could have said but that's just me.

I'm gonna ask some things here, and I would like a truthful answer:
If Tony Khan answered the question, and he said "Yes, Jericho was investigated, and we found no wrongdoing", or "No, no official investigation was made against Chris Jericho", would you take him at his word? Or would you just assume that those answers meant that Khan was covering up for Jericho?
