Kingston said that Cody Rhodes was the better fighter on Dynamite this week. He started his career in 2001, and since then Eddie Kingston has been through a lot of battles. He’s going to keep fighting no matter if he comes back to AEW.
“I learned a long time ago, in this life, you never lose… you learn. And, I learned tonight that Cody Rhodes is the better man, he’s the better grappler, he was the better fighter — but just tonight. I’ve been doing this for a very long time … I’m not gonna say the year, the number and all that jazz because that’s just pitiful in my opinion. My humble opinion.”
“I have nothing else in this life that I love doing. So whether AEW brings me back or not, I’m going to keep going. I’m going to keep going until the wheels fall off because I have nothing but this. I chose to have nothing else but this. Cody, you were the better man tonight. I got no excuses, you were. But, I’m not stopping. I’m gonna learn and move forward. That’s all I can do. Man, that’s it I’m gonna walk away, man. I’ll be back. I’ll be back.”
Eddie Kingston left a lasting impression on AEW Dynamite this week. Pulling out thumbtacks was definitely a way to gain attention. Kingston could find a place in All Elite Wrestling, he is regarded by some as one of the best talkers in the business.
