On a recent edition of the “Wrestle Purists” podcast, Lance Archer was asked if he feels frustrated with the inconsistent AEW TV time he’s had to deal with. He said,
“I think it’s frustrating for anyone that has a passion for anything, and then in this business, because we feel like… sometimes we feel like it’s an out of sight, out of mind scenario. But it’s more, just because we’re passionate. We want to be out there, we want to be performing for the people, we want to be … whether it’s in AEW or New Japan or one of the independents that I get to go and work in, which is why I do enjoy working independent shows and still going out to Japan and things like that because there are different outlets for the passion for the business of professional wrestling.”
Archer also pointed out that he is available to watch outside of AEW. He said,
“I can still be the Murderhawk Monster, whether it’s at AEW or New Japan or around the independents. And that’s one of the luxuries of working with AEW is that we’re still allowed to do that. So while there’s times when I’m not one of the mainstays in AEW, I’m still working, I’m still out there, I’m still visible, I’m still a part of it.”
Archer added that while he’s not the most regular star on AEW programming, he is always a threat whenever he is used in the ring but he would like to be booked more regularly.
