Tommy Dreamer has lavished praise on AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy, who he believes is right at home among the top stars.
During this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, Cassidy teamed with the debuting Kazuchika Okada to face the Blackpool Combat Club’s Bryan Danielson and Claudio Castagnoli.
On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Dreamer lavished praise on the ‘freshly squeezed’ wrestler. He said,
“For anyone who ever knocked Orange Cassidy, his name is up there as well. The guy consistently goes out there and puts on one hell of a show, as well as keeps his [gimmick] … A gimmick is short-lived, but a wrestler who can work, their gimmick will last forever, and so will they.
“I’ve been so entertained by him, especially when he went to the top rope and dropped that lazy, falling-asleep elbow. Again, if you get AEW, you get the product, but Orange Cassidy’s work has been insane since he joined. He’s truly become a star for the company, and his name deserves to be up there with everybody he was in the ring with.”
Orange Cassidy will defend the AEW International Championship against Claudio Castagnoli on next week’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
