Claudio Castagnoli is finally in AEW and fans are clamoring to see Claudio take on several different AEW Stars.
At the Post-Show Media Scrum for Forbidden Door, Claudio was asked who he’d want to step into the ring with, and after throwing out a few names, he says there’s no one he doesn’t want to face. Claudio also mentions how happy he is in AEW. His full comments are below.
I mean, I was so excited to share the ring tonight with Zack Sabre Jr, you know, I mean, I wrestled him last time in 2009. There’s so many guys that I’ve just know for years. Like, I just, you know, like Orange Cassidy for example is one of them, you know, we’re not talking about the one that yells and screams all the time like a little kid [laughs] you know, it’s just, to me. what is most important is that the fans are excited, right? Who do you want to see me wrestle next? That to me was always the important thing, it’s like, who’s my dream opponent? I don’t care. Who do you guys want to see me wrestle, right? And here in AEW, all that stuff can happen, you know? People are hurt, like I know, last time I wrestled Kenny Omega was in Ring Of Honor, probably 2008. I think we’ve grown a lot since then, so, you know, that’s just worth a mention, you know what I mean, but then like, I can just name literally I just run into in the locker rooms and you know, backstage and it’s just like, it’s, again, I can probably give you a short list of who I don’t want to step in the ring with, and that is nobody. So, like you know what I mean? Like it’s, like I said I’m a kid in a candy store and you know when you go shopping and they tell you “pick whatever” and you’re just standing there like “uhhh, uhhh, I don’t know what to pick” that’s me. I just come in here and I don’t know if you can tell, I’m very happy and it just fits. This is my first night, and I’ve told this to a bunch of people, this is my first night here and I feel like I’ve been here for years. It’s Just like, it just fits. It’s awesome.
