"Relegated us to the pre-show" - Current champion disappointed with his booking in AEW
The current AEW World Trios Champion has seemingly voiced his frustrations with his booking in All Elite Wrestling.
Max Caster is the current AEW World Trios Champion, along with Anthony Bowens & Billy Gunn; however, the trio has often faced some questionable booking. This past week on Dynamite, the ROH six-man Tag Team Champions Jay White, Austin, & Colten Gunn issued a challenge to The Acclaimed and Billy Gunn for a Title versus Title clash at the upcoming AEW Dynasty Pay-Per-View. Max was quick to accept the challenge however, All Elite Wrestling has put the trios match on the pre-show of Dynasty.
On Twitter/X, Max Caster blamed Jay White for getting relegated to the Dynasty PPV pre-show.
"That’s what I’m saying! Wrestling against Jay White has relegated us to the pre show!"
Max Caster has no interest in seeing Shelton Benjamin sign with AEW
Shelton Benjamin is one of the top free agents in professional wrestling and could be a great asset to any wrestling promotion. The veteran has shown the fans what he's capable of during the WrestleMania Money in the Bank ladder matches in the WWE Ruthless Aggression Era. Benjamin is a former WWE United States Champion, Intercontinental Champion, and former Tag Team Champion.
The Gold Standard has also had a great run on the Independent Circuit after his first release from the WWE in 2010. He has competed in NJPW against the likes of Katsuyori Shibata, Shinsuke Nakamura, Hiroshi Tanahashi, and more.
Benjamin returned to the WWE in 2017; however, was once again released by the company in 2023. The veteran has shown interest in potentially signing with AEW. The Acclaimed's Max Caster said he has no interest in seeing the veteran join the Tony Khan-led promotion on Twitter/X.
“We don’t want him!” he wrote.
It will be interesting to see Tony Khan actually sign Benjamin to All Elite Wrestling. As mentioned above, the veteran could be a great asset, as he is a great in-ring performer and can also help train up-and-coming wrestlers.
