Konnan Critiques AEW for ‘Burying’ Talents Like Wardlow & Brian Cage
– During a recent edition of his K100 podcast, former WWE and WCW talent Konnan discussed how AEW is utilizing talents such as Wardlow and Brian Cage.Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
Konnan on AEW “buries” wrestlers like Wardlow, Brian Cage, and more: “All they [AEW] do is bury him. Brian Cage is another one; all they do is bury him. They should’ve done something with LAX (Latin American Xchange) which they didn’t.”
Konnan on how Cage is very unselfish as a worker: “He’s very unselfish, that’s a problem. … There’s guys like him, and The Young Bucks, and Kenny Omega, and there’s a lot of them, that they suffered through the indies, and they know what they went through… and I’m like: Bro, you guys need to be more selfish. When it’s your turn, it’s your turn to shine; it’s not the other guy’s turn, it’s your turn.”
Wardlow has not wrestled on AEW programming since March 13, when he lost to Samoa Joe in a match for the AEW World Title.
