Sajak was also a speaker at the event on Thursday (October 8). He called the opportunity to speak at the event "especially exciting." Noting that he and his longtime partner, Lesly brown have had such a good relationship with Russell and Hitchcock over the years.
"I do know a little bit about longevity," Sajak said (via PEOPLE). "As was pointed out, I did my little show for over 40 years. And I understand the challenge of trying not to wear out your welcome. But Graham and Russell have been at this for over 50 years, and they continue to entertain their fans and be welcomed by sold-out crowds all around the world."
Sajak also paid homage to the duo for never cheating the grind. And always doing things at a "very high level" throughout their decorated careers.
And it's because they still do it at such a very high level," he continued. "They never phone in their performance. They never try to live off their reputation. They go all out each and every time they step on the stage, and they never disappoint."
Air Supply are the musical geniuses behind hit records such as Making Love Out of Nothing at All, The One That You Love, and Two Less Lonely People in the World. In December 2013, they were inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in Australia.
Despite leaving Wheel of Fortune in June 2024, Sajak continues to serve as a consultant for the game show.
