Anthony Bowens has quickly become one of the most popular wrestlers in AEW.
Anthony Bowens, one half of “The Acclaimed” with Max Caster, recently sat down with LGBT Sports Podcast, where he detailed his reaction to the match alongside Max Caster vs Sting and Darby Allin and a run in with the Icon himself.
He was incredible, and I think the best part afterward was how happy he was about the whole thing, which made me feel better. To me, locker room respect is a really big thing. And having the acceptance and the acknowledgment of these veterans that I looked up to, who are stars and have made money in the business, having their acceptance and their approval of my work means a lot, especially from an icon like Sting.

Bowens also revealed how emotional he got when talking to sting backstage.
I think a theme here, which you’ll hear me say a lot is that I cry a lot, I cried in that man’s face in the locker room.
