Former WWE star Shane McMahon is heavily rumored to make his All Elite debut at All In 2024. He reportedly met Tony Khan a few weeks ago and a photo of their meeting leaked and went viral online.

Shane McMahon's presence in AEW will help them immensely. He has years of experience in the professional wrestling business. Furthermore, he is Vince McMahon's son. The 54-year-old has wrestled countless matches in the Stamford-based company and been part of some iconic factions. He has also held titles such as the European Championship, the Hardcore Championship, and the SmackDown Tag Team Titles.

If Tony Khan decides to introduce AEW to a McMahon, All In would be the perfect stage. The event is speculated to attract more than 70,000 fans and they could certainly give a thunderous reaction to Shane's debut. If Khan wants to book the former WWE star strongly, his first impression will be trivial.

Here are three ways Shane McMahon can make his AEW debut in All In.

#3. Shane McMahon can lead a "Authority" like stable with Khan

Following the meeting with McMahon, Tony Khan opened up about it on the Sedano & Kap Show. He revealed that he hadn't met the 54-year-old before, however, he was aware that he wasn't doing anything with the WWE.

"As I understand, he's not doing anything with WWE, and I had a really nice visit with him. I had heard from a lot of people that he was interested in talking, and it had become, frankly, a big media story to the point where I was getting asked on the record questions about it ... I had never met him in advance of my first conversation with him. There was a lot of buzz about this so I thought it would certainly be worth talking," said Khan. [H/T Wrestling Inc.]

It looks like McMahon and Khan have started on the right foot and their partnership could transition into a dominating stable. They could draw similarities to the WWE faction, The Authority. With McMahon and Khan at their helm, this hypothetical group could recruit several members such as Satnam Singh, Daniel Garcia, Sammy Guevara, Tay Mello, Samoa Joe, and more.


#2. Helping Bryan Danielson win and turn heel on him

Shane McMahon and Bryan Danielson have a history. A few years ago they were portraying management figures on SmackDown and eventually joined forces to battle Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn at WrestleMania. The two men know each other well and they will certainly cross paths if Shane joins AEW.

McMahon could probably make his AEW debut during Danielson's bout against Strickland at All In. He could help the 43-year-old become the new AEW World Champion, but then attack him and turn heel in the process. He could then demand a title shot and have an intense feud with The American Dragon.


#1. Confronting MJF

Fans believe that MJF is the face of AEW. He is scheduled to face Will Osprey for the AEW American Championship at All In. Friedman is having an extraordinary title run and it makes more sense if Khan decides to continue it.

At All In, MJF could retain his American Championship and Shane McMahon can interrupt him during his celebration. This could hurt the 28-year-old's ego and thus kick off a legendary rivalry.
