"Gained 10 pounds tonight" - AEW's Christopher Daniels reacts to winning tag team championship with former WWE Superstar
AEW veteran Christopher Daniels still has a lot left in the tank, and he recently celebrated his latest victory. Daniels recently secured the DEFY Wrestling Tag Team Championship alongside Swerve Strickland.
Daniels and Swerve defeated The Bollywood Boyz, formerly known as The Singh Brothers in WWE, to capture the titles at DEFY's The World Is Yours event. The win also makes Daniels a double champion, as he currently holds the Interim DEFY Wrestling World Championship as well.
After the bout, Daniels took to Twitter and posted a picture of himself holding the coveted tag team title alongside his partner. Meanwhile, the post's caption suggested that they've both gained a little "weight" in recent weeks.
Gained 10 pounds tonight.
My friend here can sympathize, this is the second 10 pounds he’s gained in a week.
