Australian Suicide Recalls Meeting Chris Jericho Backstage In AEW

In a recent appearance on the Juice Pro Wrestling Podcast, indie wrestler Australian Suicide recalled talking his friend Angelico into getting him a match in AEW. He said,

“I lived with Angelico for two years. We shared an apartment and Jack (Evans) would come over every single day to just play some video games and whatnot. So, I just sent him a message saying, ‘Hey dude, what the f*ck? Get me a match,’ and he’s like, ‘Okay’ and then literally like the very next day, he’s like, ‘Oh, there you go’ and it’s like the next week. F*ck yeah.”

Speaking about his match with Sammy Guevara on AEW Dark, Australian Suicide said,

“This is a very funny story, and I don’t know if I can tell but I don’t give a f*ck so I’ll tell it anyway. We had Sammy Guevara versus me and they said, ‘You’ve got six minutes. Show me what you’ve got’ and because I’m a great friend with Sammy, I love him to death and I told him, ‘Let’s do a Teddy Hart match.’ He’s like, ‘What does that mean?’ And I’m like, ‘Let’s just, doof, doof, doof. No story, no nothing. Let’s just go bam, bam, bam.’ So, we did that, and they told me, ‘Let’s see everything you got, everything that you have’ and so I’ve got six minutes in this match. I’m just gonna do everything I got. It was cool for Sammy. He’s like, ‘Oh f*ck it. It’s just a dark match. You just do whatever you want and let’s do this.’ So, we did that.”

Recalling heading backstage and meeting Chris Jericho, Australian Suicide further added,

“Then we get backstage and Tony Khan, he came up to me and was like, ‘Dude, I loved it. That was really good.’ But, in my peripheral, (Chris) Jericho was talking to Sammy… and he was like, ‘You gave him too much. You did this, you didn’t do this. It’s like, you gave him the entire match.’ It’s like, that’s what they told us to do. No, but Jericho, he was so cool.”

‘Don’t go up to Jericho. He’s gonna be sort of weird.’ The first thing I did — because Lance Storm trained me. He was my trainer. The first thing I f*cking did was go up to Jericho and shake his hand and just wanted to meet him.”
