During a recent appearance on the “Under the Ring” podcast, Kris Statlander commented on competing on the AEW All In 2024: Zero Hour Kickoff show and why she doesn’t believe it’s a bad thing. She said,
“I mean, I think there’s benefits to being on multiple spots on the card. I think probably the ideal, best spot, in my opinion, that I’ve ever wrestled in was like the third match on the show. That’s a really good spot because there’s a lot of pressure on the first matches. It’s kind of like setting the tone for how the show is going to go. Again, I don’t know the order of the card, but being on the Zero Hour is definitely not a bad thing. It’s still being a part of the show, and I’ve done a lot of Zero Hours lately. So a good way, a good thing that I like to think of it is like, again, you get to set the tone for the show, and then once you’re done, you get to relax and you get to watch everything else, which I love to do. As honorable as it is to be in the main event, there’s so much pressure with that, because you close out the show. I hope that one day I can be worthy of that position. But I’m, I’m very content with the position being on Zero Hour, being third, first, fifth on a show. I’m just happy to be included.“
Statlander will be teaming up with Stokely Hathaway to face off against Willow Nightingale and Tomohiro Ishii at Sunday’s pay-per-view event.
