– During a recent interview with The PA Times, AEW wrestler Orange Cassidy spoke about his career, his relationship with The Young Bucks, and more. Below are some highlights:

Orange Cassidy on Tony Khan not thinking much of him at first: “When I was coming around AEW, (AEW owner and promoter Tony Khan) didn’t think much of me and what I was doing because he didn’t see much of it. Just Twitter and gifs. And then later, as I got to know Tony and he saw what I could do, he appreciated that character. He relies on me in a lot of situations where I find it, you know, I appreciate that he puts me in situations if someone gets hurt or if something isn’t going right, he’ll use me. I’m pretty much at every show, I’m always around, I’ll do whatever, whenever. I’m Orange Cassidy.”

On what he can do with his character: “I didn’t see myself doing anything. I was wrestling because I enjoyed wrestling and I was doing what I was doing. Between 2017 and 2018, I don’t remember much, around that time, I became the IWTV Independent Wrestling champion. It was an independent championship with a lot of promotions and they all used it as their championship. That’s when I understood I can do whatever I want as Orange Cassidy. I can wrestle in a main event match, or have a good time in an opener or an eight-man tag team match. Because of who the character is, I can fit into a lot of different spaces. They never had an Orange Cassidy in professional wrestling. I can fill those roles. I am lazy and I can do whatever, whenever. I do whatever I have to do.”

Orange Cassidy on The Young Bucks: “I’ve known the Young Bucks for quite a while, they are the most genuine and honest people I’ve ever met. They allowed me to join this ride. To see where it’s at in five years, it’s unheard of. We’re only five years in. The things we’re doing, three years in we went to Wembley Stadium and had the biggest show ever. I’m fortunate and proud. I wasn’t on the original roster, but I was one of the original people after the first crop of guys. Chucky T and (Trent Beretta) allowed me to get in on it with them. “It’s so awesome to see where we come.”

Cassidy is scheduled to appear for tomorrow’s Fright Night edition of AEW Dynamite. Tomorrow’s show is being held at the Wolstein Center in Cleveland, Ohio. It will be broadcast live on TBS starting at 8:00 pm EST.
