AEW star Luther was interviewed by Fightful Select where he spoke about main eventing Dynamite with Chris Jericho. He teamed with Serpentico to battle Jericho and Jake Hager for Jericho’s 30th anniversary in pro wrestling. You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On finding out about main-eventing Dynamite: “I was told about it a week or two before. They brought it up to me and I was like, ‘Woah.’ Serpentico was pretty jazzed. Who would have thought that we would get that chance? It’s a memory that will be with me forever. I think for [Serpentico] too. I was so happy for Serpentico. I was almost more happy for him than me. I was happy for Chris’ celebration, but Serpentico came on as a daily guy for the COVID matches, we got put together as a random thing, which really worked. We gelled really well together and next thing you know we got to (main event Dynamite).”
On how hard he worked in the match: “I tried my best. I don’t want to make any excuses or anything, I did everything I had to do. I got a little something on my shoes that made my shoes super slippery. I got new shoes now. So, it was odd, and then I got into my head a little bit. I still tried. One of the best bat catches in wrestling history, I think. I did a good bat catch. Baseball is my thing.”
