Tony Khan expressed strong admiration for Harley Cameron’s role within AEW, emphasizing her impact both inside and outside the ring. Speaking on the Battleground Podcast, Khan praised Cameron for her versatility and the value she adds as a performer, a locker room presence, and a representative of the company.
Khan Describes Cameron’s Growth and Respect in AEW
Khan commended Cameron’s rapid development as a wrestler, noting her dedication and diverse skill set. Despite not having a long tenure in wrestling, she has earned considerable respect from her peers. Khan stressed,
“She’s a great, great talent, absolutely. We’re really lucky to have Harley Cameron in AEW,”
highlighting her multifaceted abilities. He added,
“She’s one of the most respected people. She’s worked so hard. She hasn’t been wrestling that long. And it’s amazing. She’s gotten very, very good in the ring, but she has so many talents outside the ring too. And it’s like Harley can do almost anything.”
Valued Perspective Beyond Wrestling
Khan also pointed out Cameron’s strong connection with fans and her ability to represent AEW in a unique way. He remarked,
“So I’m a big, big fan of Harley Cameron, and I think she brings a really, really valuable perspective to AEW and also somebody that represents AEW really well outside and can give fans an interesting perspective on AEW. Somebody that might be very different than what they imagined a pro wrestler would be like.”
Fan Favorite with Diverse Talents
Harley Cameron became widely recognized among AEW fans during her feud with Mercedes Mone earlier this year, where she showcased not only her wrestling skills but also her talents as a musician and ventriloquist. Even after undergoing nose surgery in June, Cameron resumed competing without a lengthy absence, underscoring her commitment to the sport.

In the same podcast interview, Khan expressed enthusiasm about the current state of AEW’s women’s division, calling it the strongest in the company’s history. Reflecting on the level of competition, he stated,
“The wrestling is outstanding top to bottom,”
demonstrating his confidence in the division’s future.
