AEW World Trios Champion “Daddy Ass” Billy Gunn recently appeared on an episode of Busted Open Radio, where he talked about a number of topics including how the whole buzz was created when he, Max Caster and Anthony Bowens got together.

Gunn said, โ€œI think the whole buzz was created when we all got together. It wasnโ€™t something that I just jumped into. My enjoyment now, Iโ€™ve had an awesome career, I have no complaints, no nothing, is just to watch them. I get to sit on the ring or next to it and just watch how excited they get or how much fun theyโ€™re having. I get to pretty much be player-coach on the side. Not that I need to coach them that much, but itโ€™s just fun for me. Thatโ€™s my enjoyment. From doing stuff with my kids to doing stuff withโ€ฆmy kids. Me and my wife have this thing, her kids are my real kids and my kids are my kids. Itโ€™s just having fun. During the show, you see so much wrestling and so many things that you canโ€™t follow. You know when you hear their music, the place goes ballistic, and itโ€™s because they know that they are about to interact, theyโ€™re about to have some fun, and theyโ€™re going to watch us do our thing, and they all get to participate. Thatโ€™s the beauty about wrestling. If you catch that niche, and Iโ€™ve had a couple of them being as Iโ€™m a parentโ€™s worst nightmare, is that itโ€™s so electric, and people emotionally dig what we do. They get to interact, and when you get to interact with stars, how much better is it than that?โ€
