Lio Rush debuted for AEW at Double or Nothing 2021 and signed a few months later in September. However, he left Tony Khan’s company in February 2022.
On a recent edition of the “Unscriptify Podcast,” Rush revealed what went wrong with his AEW run, and you can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On what went wrong with his AEW run: “I think there was just a lot going on, a lot of miscommunication, a lot of injuries, just a lot. I think the timing was wrong. I think tensions were high, tensions were rising it’s a new company and a lot of things were getting figured out. So, I think ultimately it was just bad timing and miscommunication and things like that, and it happens, things happen, things don’t always work out as planned.”
On being grateful for his time there: “My run got cut short, but I’m glad I had the one that I did because people still talk about it which means it was impactful. I’m super happy with what I was able to accomplish while I was there.”
