ECW legend honored following AEW Dynamite
ECW legend and AEW announcer Taz was honored following Wednesday night’s Dynamite at the former ECW Arena in Philadelphia.
Taz’s wife, his son Hook, AEW owner Tony Khan, and members of the AEW staff and roster were part of a ceremony at the 2300 Arena on Wednesday night honoring the former ECW World, Television, Tag Team, and FTW Champion.
Additionally, a special segment honoring Taz and raising a banner in his honor into the 2300 Arena rafters will be held on this Saturday’s AEW Collision episode.
From our Jim Valley:
After Dynamite, “War Machine” by KISS played. Tony Khan and probably 30 wrestlers, refs and staff (Hook, Mrs. Taz, and more) came out wearing orange Team Taz Dojo t-shirts.
In the ring, Tony Khan said the best way to end the show was to “pay tribute to the greatest legend in the history of this building.”
Taz thanked his son and his wife for “kayfabing” him. He said he had mostly great memories in this building. He’s very blessed for his career, his family and to be with this company.
Tony Khan said this Saturday on Collision they will officially honor Taz by hanging his name in the rafters of the 2300 Arena.
