- 6:40 PMCageside Seats — Tony Schiavone claims AEW wardrobe told him to auction jacket with Thekla’s spit on it
"This past weekend on AEW Collision’s Summer Blockbuster, Women’s World Champion Thekla cut a promo on Stardom, remarking she did them a favor by spitting on their logo because it was free advertisement for their promotion. Then she spit in her own hand and claimed her saliva is worth more than anyone in Stardom’s locker room. IT DOESN’T GET AS TOXIC AS WIPING YOUR SALIVA ON TONY SCHIAVONE’S SUIT JACKET!!! ☣️@toxic_thekla @tonyschiavone24 #AEWCollision pic.twitter.com/cgcNw6YjlZ — D1H (@Danny_1_Hanny) June 14, 2026 Now, Tony Schiavone, who was wearing the jacket she wiped that valuable spit onto, is claiming the AEW wardrobe folks told him not to clean it but to prepare it for auction. From his What Happened When show: “Yeah. Well, she spit, and she rubbed it on the jacket, and I immediately took the jacket after the show back to wardrobe and I said, ‘Should I get this thing dry cleaned?’ And he said, ‘No, don’t get it dry cleaned. Take it, autograph it, auction the thing off. It’s got her spit on it.’ So I brought it home with me, and I’ve been wanting to retire that red jacket anyway, and I think that’s what I’m going to do eventually. How about that?” Well, if you truly are an AEW sicko, there may be one way you can show that with your hard earned dollars soon enough. Don’t be shy — which one of you is bidding for it?
