Anthony Bowens justified his recent actions and beatdown against former tag team partner Max Caster. During a recent interview with MuscleMan Malcolm, The Five-Tool Player addressed his recent beatdown of Caster after defeating him on the July 26 edition of AEW Collision. Below are some highlights (via Fightful):

“Okay, from a viewer’s perspective, I can understand how you think I might have been a little bit excessive in my beating of Max Caster; however, if you only knew what that man put me through for these four years, going on five years, at AEW, you would understand why I went berserk. I have not had the opportunity to tell my side of things in depth of what this man, the chaos — how much I feared for my job. How much chaos he brought, how many times I had to defend him. So, yeah, when I get the opportunity to go out there and whip his ass, I’m gonna go out here and kick his ass.”

The former AEW Tag Team Champions, The Acclaimed, split up and went their separate ways earlier this year. Bowens defeated Caster on Collision. He then proceeded to attack Caster after the match. Billy Gunn eventually pulled Bowens off of Caster and broke things up.
