Have you heard anything from AEW Tony khan reaction to WWE buying AAA?
I can't speak to Tony Khan's reaction personally, but a number of people I spoke to were surprised that WWE bought AAA. One person familiar with the scene believe that WWE could have just started NXT Mexico separately.
Is there ever any times where the commentary team aren’t aware something is going to happen like a return or debut or even a massive spot in a match?
Not as much in WWE, but sometimes with big spots. Most commentary teams are briefed of talking points in huge spots, but aren't always privy to everything that will happen. There are tons of moments like that. Don West used to go in blind on a lot of that as well, which resulted in some incredible calls.
WrestleMania and how long Jey Usos's title win has me thinking, are there any recent title changes that were decided on fairly late?
I was always told that Saraya winning the AEW Women's World Title ended up being something that came together pretty late. They wanted a "hometown" moment and ended up going with it.
