During an appearance on Q93<\/em>, Khan was asked to call essentially the most underrated talent in AEW and immediately pointed to Maya World. He said,<\/p>\n

\u201cMaya World has definitely taken everybody by surprise. She reached the finals of the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, where she got here in as an alternate and picked up two huge wins. She\u2019s one victory away from reaching the largest stage in wrestling, getting a World Championship match at AEW All In at Wembley Stadium.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cShe has taken so many individuals by surprise, but I\u2019m not surprised. She\u2019s an incredible star and has been doing great things. She has had some great upset victories, and it will be the largest win of her profession if she will be able to beat her idol, Mercedes Mone.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
