JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — All Elite Wrestling (AEW) CEO Tony Khan announced in a press release Tuesday that Kosha Irby has officially joined the company as Chief Operating Officer.

Irby will oversee all strategic planning and execution of live events, marketing, finance, Human Resources, licensing, consumer products, and other major lines of business for the company.

He joins AEW from Clemson University, where he served as Chief Marketing Officer within the athletic department. He has previously held positions as Chief Marketing Officer for the now-defunct Alliance of American Football’s Memphis Express, President of Professional Bull Riders, and Regional Director of Live Events for WWE.

“Kosha brings decades of experience within the sports, entertainment, and wrestling industries alongside an incredible work ethic and passion for our brand,” said Khan. “As Chief Operating Officer, he will be a phenomenal asset to AEW as we enter the next phase of the company’s ongoing business development and expansion.”

Irby was not immediately available for comment at the time of publication.
