AEW Chief Brand Officer Brandi Rhodes posted a stunned emjoji reaction on Twitter to WWE releasing Braun Strowman, Lana, Aleister Black, Murphy, and Ruby Riott. Could AEW sign any of these wrestlers? We’ll have to wait and see. You can view the tweet below.
The AEW Double Or Nothing pay-per-view featured several memorable matches and segments that were received well by fans and professional wrestlers alike. This included the Casino Battle Royal match, which saw a shocking debut from former WWE Superstar and current NJPW star Lio Rush. The pay-per-view also saw Jungle Boy winning the Casino Battle Royal match and earning the right to challenge Kenny Omega for the AEW World Championship.
During the post-show scrum, Jungle Boy talked about his amazing win in the Casino Battle Royal match. He also mentioned that David Arquette would be fun to see in AEW and credited him for giving his all in wrestling despite not needing to.
He also talked about his current theme song and how it elevated him.
“I feel very terrible before I wrestle. Every single time. Sometimes I’ll be walking to the curtain and I’ll pull a trash can and throw right up in it and then walk out. I get super, super nervous. Then, now, as I was saying, the second that music comes on I can hear the whole thing and immediately it goes away. I feel I’m ready to go, I’m ready to do it. Which, it always went away at a certain point, but to hear that big of a reaction so immediately, and to see those people having such a good time, it’s great. I think it’s going to help me a lot.”
