Former AEW star argues Costco Guys are more popular than WWE's Roman Reigns
The Costco Guys have gained more fame this year due to their association with AEW. A former All Elite star even claimed that Big Boom AJ and Big Justice are more popular than WWE's Roman Reigns.
Joey Janela is the latest to comment on the Costco Guys. Big Boom AJ and Big Justice are a father-son duo who post food reviews on TikTok. They are widely recognized social media stars in the USA. Earlier this year, they appeared as panelists for the All Out Zero Hour show. Following this, Big Boom signed a contract with AEW and even wrestled in his first match for the promotion against QT Marshall on Full Gear's Zero Hour show.
However, several wrestling fans have criticized the Costco Guys, and many wondered why they are so popular. Recently, Joey Janela took to social media to claim that Big Boom AJ and Big Justice are more popular than 90 percent of professional wrestlers.
"I love wrestling fans on here s****** on the Costco guys when they are more over and more well known the 90% of professional wrestlers by doing the stupidest f***** videos in the history of the internet & all while never taking a Canadian destroyer.”
He followed up with another post claiming that the father-son duo is more popular than Roman Reigns. He further stated that Tony Khan should book MJF vs. Big Boom AJ to boost ratings.
"If you put Roman Reigns and The Boom crew in the middle of Washington square park unexpectedly a told normal civilians that they could only take a picture with one 70% would choose the Costco guys. Tony should book MJF vs Big boom AJ on the HBO max debut, and watch the ratings go BOOM!”
