Christian Cage is All Elite! And what a surprise it proved to be, not just for fans, but for Christian himself. The newest AEW superstar talks about his AEW debut at the Revolution PPV and what both Jon Moxley and Tony Khan said to convince him to sign. He details his journey back to the ring, including the extensive medical tests and the strict fitness and nutrition regimen he started long before AEW was even an idea. He shares the story of his surprise appearance at this year’s Royal Rumble, his moment in the ring with former tag partner Edge, and why that didn’t lead to a longer-term deal with WWE. He also talks about his first true match back after being away from wrestling for 7 years and why Frankie Kazarian was the perfect opponent. He explains why “Out Work Everyone” is more than just a clever catchphrase and what he hopes to accomplish in the final chapter of his in-ring career. Plus, Christian and Jericho remember some of their many collaborations and matches in WWE.
This is why I don't mind a legend wrestler like Christian wrestles.... They sweat, blood, and tears for this business, and for all the moments he gave us... He deserves to be back,... some fans are never going to be happy, but we should appreciate what Christians loves to do....
The same fans marked out when edge returned last year....
@@cianqf1161 great fkn point..
How can you simply not like Christian?
Best part of this clip is hearing that Vincent Kennedy McMahon responds to texts with "K!" 🤣🤣🤣
Stories of Vince doing normal Things is always fun to hear
Great to see Christian and Jericho as active in-ring talent. Remembering all the matches they've had against each other years back.
They were tagged before too. 10 out of the 27 matches they've had together.
I was happy to see Christian in the ring again after so long.
Christian and Jericho were possibly the best thing on Raw back in the 2002 - 2004 era 😎
Christian debut in AEW was solid and making the show great. He did better than expected and his match always mean something.
Seriously if you told me 5 years ago that Edge, Christian and Jericho would be Wrestling Full Time for a national promotion I would've Lost it
Punks next
@@WarrenAbrahamson hopefully, Cm Punk Vs Aj styles is a fking dream match
@@WarrenAbrahamson I'm not getting my hopes up for that
@@WarrenAbrahamson I can see it happening I know people have their doubts but punk deep down knows he wants to have that 1 last match and an opponent of his choosing
Christian and Y2J are one of the most underrated tag teams ever!!!
@RazorKevs wym ?
That flux capacitor by Kaz was a thing of beauty.
Yes. That sent chills down my spine.
Gave me chills
Jericho said it best, the variety of styles is why I love AEW so much. Personally thought the Christian match was a great, and perhaps better when you add a 7 year layoff. It was storytelling at its finest, without the modern dives and high spots. Also for anyone that thought Christian was gassed, you got worked. The story they told was fantastic.
You don’t rarely see lockups in AEW and I think Christian is a perfect fit for this company. Mentoring these young wrestlers. His match exceeded expectations
Ya see em quite often on the Dark shows..
No dive spots. Hell yeah, christian style is different to any wrestlers style. That makes him unique and we need unique style to be more entertain to watch. I love high flying spots but uniqueness is better in business to succeed
Randy Orton would agree. 😉
Christiaaaaan.....Christiaaaaan......At last, you're on your owwwwwwwn......
Kaz vs Christian was the best match i have seen on AEW so far. No lie. That was wrestling.
This. I said the exact same thing. Best match on Dynamite ever. That match was epic. I'm so happy AEW signed Christian, one of the best pick ups for them so far.
@@jeffreythomas7466 yessir. Now if that dave meltzer guy really knows wrestling, he will give that match 5 stars. 😂😂 Christian surprised me tbh 😀
@@serbonkers4130 that match should be a 5 star matches
@@SanAchmds02 how many stars did it got from meltzer?
That was a really solid debut.
The two guys that hated back in 2002-2003 because they were so good as heels. It is so cool to see that almost 20 years later and they are still wrestling. 😃
anyone else think after watching the match didn’t believe that Cage was retired for nearly a decade but like 2 months lmao? Even just at the Royal Rumble he looked like he returned from like a 2 month injury
Always loved Christian. Always thought he was a great heel or IC champ. Was happy when he became a main eventer in TNA and sadly knew he was gunna be mistreated when he went back to WWE. Still he became WHC. Now he’s in AEW doing his think. Keep going Captain Charisma!
just watched the match, then listened to this and its exactly what I thought/wanted - no matter who wins, the WRESTLING matters, cracking match and great to see you wrestle again Christian!
So happy to hear, see & get Christian back to wrestling! Thank you Tony Khan, Jon Moxley & Christian for signing with AEW. "Pick his brain!" Such a wealth of info, knowledge & experience. Yay!
Your match was good. Wish it had a big crowd. AEW should be HUGE right now but the no crowd thing is hurting. Nothing like an AEW crowd its magical.
Man I miss the crowds.
That's a great match really awesome to watch and love that Christian still got it😎
Still waiting for Chris Jericho and Christian Cage teaming up for once in AEW
One of two future Hall of Famers I could have seen going to AEW. Glad it was him because he can bring a lot to the table.
Or through one!!
Christian and frankie have been stupidly underrated their whole careers and i love the respect from christian to frAnkie
I agree with Jericho in that this did feel like watching a match from a decade ago, but in a good way, much slower, more deliberate pace, it felt like a story was unfolding. The match had 1 week of buildup, and it felt like it told more of a story than any other match on the show that night. It wasn't perfect, and I think Christian alluded to that, later in the match you could tell he hasn't got his full stamina back, but that comes with time, which means he's only gonna get better.
I really hope he sticks with this style, and helps some guys tell some stories in the ring. Kazarian was the perfect opponent for that first match back, because he worked in that era and knows that style and pace.
I just want Christian to reference Paul Smackage and through the old "oh brother brother into a promo"
Ladies and Gentlemen, The Instant Classic...........
Id like to see christian vs matt hardy, theres a lot of history to work with there
Thanks for being an integral part of making aew what it is. Brought me back to watching wrestling once a week. Minus the stuff you were in. Same with Aj
Tony does the ❤. That tells you all you need to know about differences in ownership
Facts
That debut match was solid! Glad to see Christian back in the ring.
Nice interview.
I won’t be surprised in a few years lots of the young talent will credit Christian with helping them understand the fundamentals of pro wrestling. It seems so simple but it means so much in the long run.
Also he right frankie was extreamy underused, in the tna days. But grate match for them two.
I hope Christian gets a chance to have a singles match with Miro.
This pops up on TH-cam as im watching Christian cage vs. Abyss from years ago in tna on pluto tv🤣
AEW has high spot guys like Guevara and Darby, but a lot of guys are having great matches stretching people out. Hook isn’t someone who uses high spots. I don’t see too many high spots used by the new BCC either. As for Kazarian I watch him on Dark. Sometimes I get the feeling they don’t know what to do with him. I actually wouldn’t mind seeing Hook lose a match to Kazarian where he learns something from Frank before beating him in a rubber or rematch. Christian could serve the same role. I have a sneaky suspicion that in Kayfabe, Team Tazz is about to break up. Send Hook on a hero’s journey and put guys like Kazarian and Christian in his way. Hey!
Chris Jericho & Christian were two of the top pillars of Ruthless Aggression Era . Same with Edge
God, Christian seems like the most likable guy in the world. It's why he always works so well as a face for me- he's like Kofi, someone you genuinely want to see do well.
...and now I want to see FTR beat him up.
A lockup has been replaced with a guy doing a 450 in to someone at the start. It's nice seeing some old school wrestling matches mixed in on the show. That's the main reason i love aew. I had to stop watching wwe because they were taking guys i loved on the indies and other promotions and making them wrestle a wwe style and it just made everyone feel the same. I just couldn't watch it anymore and haven't for over 3 years now. I had just stopped watching wrestling all together. When aew came out i decided to give it a chance and even though i don't love everything i do like enough that i don't miss a show.
Great Match. Even Tho Kazarian, isn't Nice to his Fans.
Your turn edge, weekly show off between the two on different shows, yes please. Unbelievable wrestling.
Christian vs Kaz was one of the best matches AEW's produced. I hope the new talent learn from this experienced guys the art of storytelling because the multiple dives and high spots would come stale at some point.
Awesome job Chris
Christian should eventually be the leader of the Dark Order. Sort of a hail back to his Brood days.
Nope.....God no, what a stupid idea....Brodie is not being replaced anytime soon
NO! Dark Order is Brodie Lee's and Brodie Lee's alone! His son Negative One is his proxy leader!
Love Christian.
That match was great it wasnt too slow wasnt too fast.
In all honesty, with Christian's age and seven years away, I was ready to cringe for this match, but letting them go darn near twenty minutes was incredible. Hats off to both men for an awesome opening match. Curtain jerk match, who? LOL
CANADA IN THE HOUSE
Need christian n jericho to get aew tag title
Why?
Jericho and MJF was a good tag team but the pinneacle has stolen MJF honestly i want MJF and Chris Jericho got the tag title before MJF joining the pinneacle
Shut up 😂😂😂😂
@@SanAchmds02 they’re not a real tag team. Which is exactly why they never got the titles.
@@daisybelle1025 grow up
A new AEW wrestler on Jericho's podcast shortly after hiring. Who the hell could have possibly seen this happening
Kazarian is perfect for Christian's first match coz their feud back in TNA is unfinished when Christian went back to WWE.
Y2AJ BayBay
It was a great match
Im the greatest Jericholic
I agree, more people should wrestle like Christian. All the flips and superkicks are getting boring...
Honestly kazarian was the better man
4:30----
I'am your biggest fan christian
Kaz is even more underutilized than Christian.
Did christan and jericho ever had a tag team name ???
No
Vitamin c
C, Man's together 😁😅💕🤗
Christian is too good on the mic and in the ring. It shows how unfair wrestling is when Jericho wins both the WWE and AEW belt and Christian who's a way better wrestler didn't get a minute with either!
You know Jericho that aew wil never everrrrrr great like WWE
Because Y2J was better than demo god
Demo god looks like Soccer mom
Aew a dumping ground for veteran wwe wrestlers wCw part 2
I am not a fan of those dives. It looks too scripted having a guy stand there ,sees his opponent going for the dive and just stand there.
It's like you literally have 4 seconds to get out the way ,but you just stand there and allow him to jump on you. That match with Christian was amazing.
Lmao you think thats scripted look at mexico matches like in CMLL all they do is stand there and take moves and its way obvious they dont even hide it
🥰🥰🥰
Vince should have signed Christian.
So chris how was your week ?
See black cats online Christian and go to find the truth.
First in the comments orayt! Much love for Y2J
Only if jericho can lose that gut and work like christian
Jericho now often looks out of gas, lately. And it's coming from Jericho's biggest fan.
I agree. I understand Jericho is 50 now, but he can change is moveset accordingly I guess. I mean, Ric Flair was so entertaining even past 50, maybe Jericho can pull the same thing off
To be fair he does look Much better than he did in the past few months. Much Much Better.
@@arnavbhagwat4232 Christopher Daniels is the same age as Jericho, and he moves better than Jericho.
@@viktheprocrastinator CD also doesn't wrestle Alot. He's more of a backstage guy than an in Ring guy just like Dustin
@@850thameem7 Cd had more matches then jericho in aew, mostly on dark but still.
*AEW needs Vince Russo damnitt*
@Blade Runner He's the guy behind success of WCW, Attitude Era and early days of TNA
@Christopher Marriott Maybe you are talking about ruthless aggression era and not attitude Era cz it was Russo era when they fired him it went into loop hole Vince Russo and Paul Heyman these two guys are the genius and they have lot more knowledge about wrestling business
@Christopher Marriott If you think that ECW was better than WWF then name any ECW Wrestler who has better charisma than The Rock, Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Doctor Thugnomics and X pac.
Name any ECW Wrestler who has better physics than The Batista, Triple H, Scott Steiner, Goldberg
Name any ECW Wrestler who has more popularity than The Undertaker, Bret Hart, Sting, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan and Roddy Piper
You need help you sad troll
NO. AEW IS FINE WITHOUT THAT GUY!
It was a great match
