In a recent session with “Levack and Goz,” AEW star Darby Allin shared his insights about the cooperative environment of AEW. He talked about how his innovative proposals were sometimes turned down.
Darby voiced, “Not really. I’ve had ideas that people have turned away. There are a few things I’ve wanted to do in matches where people are like, ‘Absolutely not. We’re not doing that.’ I’m always down to push the limits and see how far I can take things.“
In another recent podcast engagement on “Battleground”, Orange Cassidy opened up regarding his views on this year’s AEW Continental Classic, expressing his interest in joining.
Mark Briscoe had previously noted that this year’s event would begin on Thanksgiving eve.
Cassidy stated, “That is a tournament that will have to live up to what happened last year. It was one of the greatest wrestling tournaments that I think I’ve seen. The talent that was in there, those matches were incredible. I definitely would like to be a part of that. I would definitely like to try and see if I could go undefeated [laughs]. No, no, I definitely would love to be a part of that tournament. I’m just nervous about who’s gonna be in it because the roster got even better after last year.”
Lastly, during his recent address on the “Talk is Jericho” podcast, Big Bill revealed his road to recovery from alcohol dependency, crediting Shannon Moore for his unwavering support.
Bill faced multiple hurdles, including numerous visits to rehab centers till he went absent in late 2019 or early 2020. When officials found him, he was taken to a detox center, where he achieved sobriety successfully.
Bill shared, “January 2020, I went to rehab for the final time. Shannon Moore, works with WWE recovery, he is a Godsend […] I finally gave in to the program, which I thought was stupid prior to that and I hated going to meetings. […] Finally, I started listening to people, got a sponsor, did everything I was told, and I guess that was the beginning of my next journey, which was coming back to wrestling. Getting sober was the hardest thing I’ve done in my life, but it was the best thing I’ve done. It’s like I have a new lease on life now. I’m not killing myself with alcohol, and I have a second chance.”
