Schiavone hired
By Scott Keith on August 20, 2019
Scott- It was announced today that Tony Schiavone signed with AEW. Not a big surprise but it's believed that WWE had been working to sign him as well.
Didn't Schiavone try to go back and got rebuffed by WWE for years? Now all of a sudden they want him back because AEW is interested.
Is everyone not committed one way or another in play if they have even the smallest value?
Welcome to the Wednesday Night Wars, bro! Pretty soon they're gonna be putting out press releases about signing the guy who caters backstage if it means one more eyeball on the product.
But yeah, Tony had been trying to come back for years as a producer but they kept saying "they didn't want any more announcers", which is too bad. I really wish he had gone to WWE because he lends a unique bit of credibility to their talking head stuff and he's just a really cool guy. Best of luck to him in AEW, though.
