Tony Khan On Why Orange Cassidy Didn’t Get New Theme Music At Forbidden Door

Orange Cassidy was defeated by Will Ospreay in a stellar IWGP US Championship Match, but before the bell, he still walked out to “Where Is My Mind?”

It was reported this past weekend that Orange Cassidy was getting new theme music, and well, that didn’t happen. Tony Khan was asked about this in the AEW Forbidden Door Post-Show Mesia Scrum, and he didn’t seem to happy about the information being leaked. He had this to say.

I’ve learned that like, around like a lot of stuff, a lot of stuff is leaked that like, it’s like, really shameful. And like, people shouldn’t be doing it. And, that’s one of those ones where it like screwed up what would’ve been maybe a pop, but also it should still be a huge pop. I mean, these things are organic, so, you can’t make that, it’s gonna be a huge pop if it happens. But, like, the fact that like it even came up is dumb. And like, like I said to Sean, which is like, I was like okay, if you’re gonna report it, I was surprised to read it, cause I was like, “I wonder why somebody leaked that?” Cause all it does is screw up a fun surprise for the fans. But, it’s like I told Sean, I was like, “we don’t even have 100, we have, I have, as I understand it, 97.5% of the rights, but in this case, that’s zero. I mean, like, I might as well have zero. Like, I, We’re real close, I’ve been told by the two and a half percent right holder that they’re gonna get back to us, and it seems like it’s gonna, it seems like it’ll probably happen, but like, the fact that I’m even having to explain this, I think is ridiculous and it’s cause somebody in the back like, shouldn’t have said what they said and then I was surprised, I like Sean, but I was surprised to see that, and I told him. Cause I was like “it’s not true” and I never even got a chance to refute it and like, I know Orange said he was gonna have something new, but technically that’s not even something new, I think he meant the belt […] So, if it does happen, if we do get that 100%, I’ll be really happy cause that’s something he brought to the table before he was here.
