Various News – Konnan Praises Rey Mysterio, Miro On AEW Collision, Ray/Cardona

During a recent edition of his Keepin’ It 100 podcast, Konnan lavished praise on Rey Mysterio for having such a great physique and mobility at 48 years old. He said,

“The reason Rey’s in such great shape [is] because he’s like all the high-caliber athletes, like LeBron James. They invest money into their body. You know, he’s getting stem cells, and the [cryotherapy] chamber, and all that stuff.”

In a recent appearance on the “Good Karma Wrestling” podcast ahead of his AEW return on Collision this past Saturday, Miro declared that he doesn’t have any preference for who he works with on the show. Miro defeated Tony Nese on the premiere episode of Collision. He said,

“I really don’t care. I don’t have that pull. I just show up, I beat people, whatever they tell me. I write my promos, I deliver my promos, everything else is up to him, to the man who sits on top of that chair. I’m not that guy, ‘Oh, I want to work with this guy or that guy.’ No, give me your best, I’ll take them all. It’s all about the story and how you get these. Let’s get there in a way where people are going to be intrigued and have a good match after.“

Bully Ray will face Matt Cardona at Battleground Championship Wrestling’s ‘Legends Never Die’ event on July 1st. The loser will be banned from Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena, where the event is being held.

Earlier today, Ray took to Twitter to comment on the matchup, He wrote,

“We are under 2wks away from the BBQ’ing of Cardona.”

Cardona later replied,

“You have a small hot dog!!!”
