Jay Lethal Will Stay With AEW Until They Fire Him
Jay Lethal is loyal.
Jay Lethal has been around for a long time. From IMPACT Wrestling to ROH, Jay Lethal has traveled the world for Pro-Wrestling and now he is a star in All Elite Wrestling. Every place Lethal has been, he’s always stayed an extended period of time and he’s looking to do the same with AEW. Jay Lethal went more into this topic during a recent appearance on The Kurt Angle Show.
If I didn’t get fired, part of me believes I’d still be [at IMPACT Wrestling] because my dad and I have always talked about being loyal and wrestling and not just going to the highest bidder, If a company is taking good care of you and you like them, and you guys respect each other, and there are no real issues, you can chat about the money later. Your loyalty and your word have got to mean something. I would have been in IMPACT Wrestling, I believe, to this day if they didn’t let me go. Ring of Honor, if they didn’t close down, I would still be wrestling for them to this day. Things happen for a reason, now, I am in AEW, which is amazing. It’s a godsend. Then, they bought Ring of Honor, but I’ll be at AEW until the company closes, they let me go, or they fire me, because, to me, in wrestling, if I’m going to put my body, my life, and my career on the line for you, I’ve got to appreciate and love you. There is some bond between us and I’m going to try my hardest to not ever break that bond. So, if you don’t break it, I’m not going to break it, and we’ll bond forever.
