Tony Khan thought it “made a lot of sense” to air the All In footage.

Speaking to Chris Russell, Khan said airing the Jack Perry/CM Punk altercation from last year's All In plays into the FTR/Young Bucks match that will take place at AEW Dynasty this coming weekend.

Well, I think it made a lot of sense. First of all, FTR/Young Bucks ladder match coming up at AEW Dynasty for the World Tag Team Championships. This is the fourth chapter in FTR vs. The Young Bucks...the last time they wrestled, Young Bucks/FTR III, was at Wembley Stadium, AEW All In. And a lot happened that day. They were the third match on the pay-per-view and at one point it looked like we were going to have to call them up and they were going to have to wrestle the first match. And then they ended up going on in the spot they were in, but the Young Bucks said, the whole day, everything that happened, it really affected their mental preparation, they weren’t able to pray before the match, they were very stressed out. They slipped on the banana peel and lost the match but they blame FTR, they blame what happened at Wembley Stadium, and that’s why, in hindsight, thats why they refused to shake FTR’s hand.

Khan also pointed out the reaction Jack Perry received this past Friday at NJPW Windy City Riot, losing to Shota Umino.

It was fascinating to see after that tape played, the reaction that Jack Perry got at New Japan Pro Wrestling this week, he got the reaction of a superstar. That is not altogether unexpected and it’s something very interesting, perhaps a side effect of this. Jack Perry [is] already a big star in wrestling, really the way the crowd connected with him in Chicago, that was interesting to see.

The Young Bucks have made references to Perry in recent weeks, including Matthew Jackson wearing a scapegoat t-shirt on last week's Dynamite. Perry remains under suspension following the altercation with Punk, who was fired.
