Wardlow Namedrops Top WWE & AEW Stars in Fiery Promo Segment on 2/21 AEW Dynamite

The heavy-hitting and dominant AEW star, Wardlow was not in the mood for games on tonight’s edition of AEW Dynamite, launching a verbal tirade of the entire landscape for his recent frustrations.

However, it was interesting to note that he did it at the expense of some of the biggest superstars from both WWE and AEW, probably to make sure that his voice was heard loud and clear.

During his in-ring promo segment, Wardlow walked into the ring with anger on his face and a lot he wanted to get off his chest. He first mentioned how he was the ‘Next Big Thing’ in wrestling, a moniker that WWE legend Brock Lesnar used during his early days in the business.

Shifting his focus, he subtly name-dropped former AEW star CM Punk claiming that he was the Best in the World and the real World champion of All Elite. Moreover, he even brought up the beating he gave Punk and cited it as the reason his body was still failing apart, referencing his recent triceps injury.

Lastly, he indirectly mentioned the absent former AEW World Champion, MJF stating that he was better than everybody else and they knew while taking the final shot at the man who beat MJF for the title at AEW Worlds End, Samoa Joe.

Do you think it was a planned move by Wardlow to name-drop some of the biggest names in the industry in his promo on AEW Dynamite? Sound off in the comments!
