“He’s just another body that I’ve got to go through" - Wardlow comments on former NXT champion joining AEW
AEW star Wardlow recently expressed his thoughts on AEW signing former NXT Superstars. Mr. Mayhem mainly spoke about the man who recently made his All Elite debut, former NXT champion Keith Lee.
Keith Lee was let go by WWE in November last year. A few weeks ago, The Limitless One made his All Elite Wrestling debut on Dynamite, where he beat Isiah Kassidy to qualify for the Face of the Revolution ladder match.
During a recent appearance on The Wrestling Inc Daily, Wardlow said that when it comes to Keith Lee, he is just another person he has to go through. He said it's cool if this brings more fans towards the product, but one must keep in mind that this is his world.
“He’s just another body that I’ve got to go through. I know he did great things elsewhere, but he’s here now. So, I don’t care what you’re name is, I don’t care where you came from. You’re in my world now. Cool, if he can bring some new fans to the product, awesome. But things are a little different in AEW, and he’s going to find that out,” Wardlow said. (H/T Wrestling Inc)
