Eddie Kingston made his AEW debut in July 2020, where he squared off against Cody Rhodes for the TNT Championship. While he was unsuccessful in the match, Kingston impressed many and eventually signed with the company.

Kingston wasted no time in establishing himself as one of the best talkers in AEW, as his promos are known to be from the heart and very natural. He is also very passionate when it comes to the pro wrestling world.

During his appearance on the Eat, Sleep, Podcast, Repeat! podcast, Eddie Kingston talked about the backstage mentality after all the drama that took place over the past couple of months.

“It’s real simple. You’ve got a lot of people back there with egos. Some people believe other people don’t deserve to be in AEW, other people do believe they deserve to be in AEW. So when you’ve got a bunch of guys – men and women- who don’t know how to use their words? [chuckles] Things are gonna happen in the back.”
