Heading into AEW Dynamite, Tony Khan set a very interesting stipulation for Orange Cassidy’s latest All-Atlantic Championship defense; in order to retain his title, Cassidy would not only have to face off against Rey Fenix, one of the most dominant high-flyers in professional wrestling, but also Luchasaurus, Christian Cage’s “Right Hand of Destruction.” A tough […]

Orange Cassidy didn’t come to AEW to win championships. His first appearance in the company, serving as the surprise 22nd man in the Casino Battle Royale, was intentionally played for comedy, he didn’t wrestle a proper singles match in AEW until Revolution 2020, when he wrestled PAC, and didn’t challenge for a belt until September […]

At AEW’s Grand Slam, PAC lived up to his nickname in a major way. Wrestling against one of his deepest seated rivals in Tony Khan’s company for the All-Atlantic Championship, PAC and Orange Cassidy started things off normally enough, with OC running his usual “Kicks of Doom” routine before rapidly transitioning into a forceful series […]

After exclusively defending his All-Atlantic Championship abroad, PAC finally earned an opportunity to defend his strap in an AEW ring, taking on the long-absent Kip Sabian during All Out Zero Hour. The results, unfortunately for Sabian, went about as people expected. Though Sabian gave it his all, wrestling against his fellow countryman in a spirited […]

Orange Cassidy and Best Friends have been with AEW since basically the very beginning. Though the trio didn’t appear on All In, the “The Biggest Independent Wrestling Show Ever,” they took the ring at Double or Nothing in 2019, where Best Friends took on The Hybrid 2, and OC was a member of the pre-show […]

In the world of wrestling, there’s nothing more exciting than the christening of a new championship belt; it presents the promise of exciting new matches, more performers featured on Pay-Per-Views, and even if the purpose of the belt is rather confusing, as was the initial rollout of the AEW All-Atlantic Championship ahead of Forbidden Door, […]

As AEW fans the world over already know, Orange Cassidy can go. Though he may present himself as aloof, with a style that is equal parts suave as it is maddening for older fans who like their wrestlers to look and act a certain way, OC has crafted a unique spot in the professional wrestling […]

It’s been a pretty good week for AEW‘s Wheeler Yuta He and his Blackpool Combat Club faction-mate Jon Moxley beat the bricks off of his former friends Chuck Taylor and Trent Beretta, collectively known as the Best Friends, and then doubled-down on his winning ways with a big-time bout against Daniel Garcia at Ring of […]

When it was announced that Orange Cassidy was going to wrestle Wardlow on the first night of AEW‘s Fyter Fest, it raised a few eyebrows across the internet. Both men were coming off of impressive showings in their more recent contests, including big-time bouts on Pay-Per-View, and the prospects of potentially slowing one of their […]

Wardlow is on a roll in AEW. Since being released from the clutches of MJF, the newly signed big man has become a babyface, a fan favorite, and… oh yeah, the TNT Champion, having dethroned Scorpio Sky in a Rochester Streetfight despite the best efforts of the American Top Team faction. Surely things are looking […]

When Orange Cassidy made his way down to the ring at Forbidden Door, his presentation was… weirdly typical. That’s right, despite taking part in an upper mid-card bout versus one of the best wrestlers in the world, on one of the biggest shows on the AEW and NJPW calendar no less, OC walked down to […]

After almost a week of anticipation, The Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer finally released his ratings for AEW x NJPW’s Forbidden Door, and needless to say, they were relatively predictable in the best possible way. Sure, some fans wibble with a rating one way or another, but for the most part, the information matched the eye […]

After having “97.5 percent” of its rights at Forbidden Door, Tony Khan pulled through and Orange Cassidy finally debuted his new theme at AEW‘s Blood and Guts, with “Where is my Mind” by Pixies being officially replaced by “Jane” the song by Jefferson Starship known most notably for being featured in the film Wet Hot […]

After turning a legitimate Match of the Year candidate with Will Ospreay at Forbidden Door – seriously, it was that good – Orange Cassidy isn’t about to rest on his laurels and take another extended break from AEW action. No, now that OC is back to full strength, Tony Khan has booked the promotion’s (basically) […]

Goodness, if you had Orange Cassidy versus Will Ospreay on your match of the year prediction bingo card then you, my friend, are in luck, as the duo came out to the ring in their usual styles, began the match with their hands in their respective pockets, and turned in one of the best matches […]

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, Tony Khan did it; after hinting at beef between the Best Friends/CHAOS collective and the United Empire in both AEW and New Japan Pro Wrestling, the booking tandem of Gedo and TK have officially pulled the trigger one what might just be the most exciting match of […]

Welp, it’s officially official: Will Ospreay has arrived in AEW. That’s right, after wrestling around the United States for much of the last year, delivering big-time bouts at Warrior Wrestling, West Coast Pro, and NJPW Strong, Ospreay has finally made his way to All Elite Wrestling, where a whole new world of matches suddenly come […]

Kyle O’Reilly’s AEW Debut shocked the system, as he reunites the Undisputed Era alongside Adam Cole and Bobby Fish in AEW Dynamite earlier this week. The Violent Artist showed up at the first part of Holiday Bash, attacking Orange Cassidy to help out Adam Cole secure a win. The two had a stare-down before reuniting, […]
