“Yeah, behind the scenes. Scotty’s been with us for, gosh, over six months or so, yeah. I think it’s great that Tony and the company gave him a job, let him work for us,” 

In the original report, it was noted Riggs helps with driving talent to venues among other logistical work for AEW. Schiavone did not provide any additional information about Riggs or his role in the company.
