On a recent edition of the “AEW Unrestricted” podcast, AEW International Champion Roderick Strong discussed his title pursuits, noting that he wanted to win the International Title even before he signed with AEW.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On what winning the title meant to him: “I want to say it’s an honor, but obviously, that seems strange to say, but it honestly is. This is the title that, immediately when it came about, that was something I’ve had my eye on, even when I wasn’t with the company. So to have the opportunity to face someone like Orange Cassidy, as talented as he is, kind of surreal at the moment. People were talking to me about that, just how amazing that pay-per-view was overall and just the fact that it was a spotlight opportunity, and I took advantage of it, so it was awesome.”
On being a champion in AEW: “It’s meant the world to me, and something that was important to me after I won it, or before I won it, when I knew I was gonna win it, was the fact that I was gonna make people earn their opportunities to face me. I appreciate what Orange did for a lot of people, but like everything in my career, I had to take the long path. So I’m gonna make people take the long path. You see how often people quit, and they’re not willing to really sacrifice. They say they will, but when they’re in that situation, they won’t. So to me, this means. next to my wife and my son, it means everything.”
In a recent appearance on the “Gabby AF” podcast, Lady Frost disclosed her goals for the remainder of the year, which include obtaining the All Elite graphic and participating in AEW All In 2024.
While Frost has made appearances on AEW and ROH TV, she has not been formally announced as a member of the roster. She said,
“I’m going to go big because I usually never do these and I’m super timid and I’m just trucking along. I want to go to Wembley. I want the All Elite graphic. I want to be in title contention or a women’s champion by the end of the year. I’m going big.”
Frost last competed on the May 11th episode of AEW Rampage, losing to Deonna Purrazzo.
