In a recent interview with Esquire Middle East, reigning AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy addressed his evolution in All Elite Wrestling and how he has changed as a person since joining the company back in 2019.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On Jeff Jarrett: “Jeff Jarrett is maybe my least favorite person on Earth right now. The reason why I’m sitting right now with my leg up on another chair is because my knee is killing me right now. You know, Jeff Jarrett’s a guy who plays a guitar and he struts like a country music guy and he took his guitar and he smashed me over the knee with it… it’s just a pain.”
On the AEW All-Atlantic Championship becoming the AEW International Championship: “I don’t know if just reigning over one ocean was good enough for me. Like, why not just do them all.”
On how he’s changed since he joined AEW: “I’ve got more friends than I had before. I hang around with the demon man a lot now, Danhausen. I used to not do that. I get stopped a lot at the airport now, because of my belt in my backpack, it always sets off the metal detector. So that’s kind of annoying.”
