The Origin Of Orange Cassidy’s Thumbs Up Has Been Revealed
Orange Cassidy’s laziness knows no limits, and that includes when he gives his signature thumbs up, which is as lazy as it comes.
When Cassidy gives the thumbs up, he barely points it up, with fans and other talent mimicking the AEW International Champion’s laziness all the time.
One of Cassidy’s Best Friend’s, Trent Beretta is one of these talents, who usually also gives Cassidy a hug while he gives the thumbs up. Beretta is also well aware of how Cassidy came to start using the taunt.
Trent recalled on Talk is Jericho with Chris Jericho:
“We did this show in China, and it was an advertisement in an airport for whatever it was, Chinese Soda, and for whatever reason, his [billboard ad person] thumb was a shitty half-assed thumbs up. That was the thing the whole tour we were all doing. His [Ad Person] thumb looked great, he was just being lazy. It became a thing we did all tour. It fits him [Orange Cassidy] perfectly,”

Both Cassidy and Beretta are scheduled to compete in the Stadium Stampede match this weekend at AEW All In.
