AEW star Orange Cassidy spoke with B.J. Lisko of Youngstown Studio on a number of topics, including how he never saw himself in the position to win the World Title.
Cassidy said, โAEW World Champion, to me, represents professional wrestling, and I feel that it represents what professional wrestling should be, can be, is, and to wear that championship, it means that you are the best wrestler in the world. So itโs something I never thought I would try to attain. I wrestled for it one other time, it was right after the pandemic, it was Double or Nothing [2021], and I wrestled against Kenny Omega and PAC in a triple threat, and I pretty much had the match won, but Don Callis ruined that for me, like he does everything else in my life, and I never saw myself in that position. I think I just didnโt want it, I donโt know.โ
