Christian Cage disclosed the real reason behind his betrayal on AEW Dynamite
The veteran wrestler apparently sought revenge against Jungle Boy since the latter eliminated him from the Casino Battle Royale last year.
Christian explained that he had only been after the money since joining All Elite Wrestling. According to him, Jungle Boy was the easiest way to get a big paycheck by doing next to nothing himself.
Furthermore, Jungle Boy eliminating him in the Casino Battle Royale cost him a fast ticket to the World Title picture.
Christian Cage said that he wasn't going to let Jungle Boy get away with eliminating him from the Casino Battle Royale at DON 2021.
Long term booking.
