AEW President Tony Khan has a lot of respect for WWE Superstar Becky Lynch but isn\'t ready to discuss bringing her to the All-Elite promotion just yet.
Lynch\'s contract with WWE is set to expire within a matter of days and while talks are ongoing, a deal is not expected to be reached. On this week\'s Raw, Lynch unsuccessfully challenged WWE Women\'s World Champion Liv Morgan in the show\'s main event. Lynch was visibly emotional after the show as she waved to the fans, which some have taken as a sign that \'The Man\' is leaving WWE.

Tony Khan on Becky Lynch
With Lynch\'s time with WWE coming to an end, many fans are naturally hopeful that she will join AEW and its blossoming women\'s division. The All-Elite promotion is already home to notable ex-Superstars including \'Timeless\' Toni Storm, Saraya, and Mercedes Mone. Appearing on The Rich Eisen Show, Tony Khan was asked about possibly bringing WWE talent on board.
\"I don\'t want to try to tamper and do those things. I try to keep it classy and I really have a reputation for honesty and I really want to be a fair businessman. The wrestling business is a really cutthroat business.\
When Lynch\'s name was brought up, Khan again brought up tampering and isn\'t going to discuss signing somebody who for now remains under a WWE contract. With that said, the AEW President agreed with Eisen\'s co-host TJ that Lynch is a \"great star.\"
Becky Lynch\'s Future
Lynch has been telling those in WWE that she does not plan on joining AEW imminently. The former Women\'s Champion is expected to take a break from wrestling for the time being. Despite this, WWE sources are confident a new deal will be reached when the time is right. Whatever comes next, fans will remain intrigued to see what the highly popular WWE Superstar does next.
