AEW star Max Caster found himself in the center of controversy last week, making jokes about Simone Biles, the infamous Duke lacrosse rape case and the validity of COVD-19 rapid testing during The Acclaimed’s entrance for an episode of AEW Dark. Tony Khan appeared on Busted Open Radio the following day, saying, “Last night on Dark, Max Caster’s rap was terrible. I was not out there when he did it, it was not during Dynamite. I was out back when Max had said this rap. I had not heard it until last night, truthfully. In the editing process it should have been caught. We deleted the episode and reposted it with that edited out, but it shouldn’t have aired. I put such tight controls on Dynamite and this never would’ve happened there. Max, his raps, I’ve always gone over them with him and frankly every segment on Dynamite I don’t script or write wrestlers’ promos, but the bullet points I give. In this case, it shouldn’t have happened and going forward I will be taking over the editing of Dark and Dark: Elevation myself…. it’s unfortunate that it came to that.”
