Bow down to Orange Cassidy.
“Freshly Squeezed” won his first championship in AEW, after he came up empty on multiple attempts, by defeating Pac on the October 12 episode of AEW Dynamite.
Speaking on Torrey and Dan, Cassidy shared his thoughts on his title win and noted that he’s practically the king of the Atlantic Ocean now. He also discussed his rivalry with Pac and his previous shortcomings in his quest for gold.
“The All-Atlantic Championship was created a little while ago this to be defended in other places besides North America,” Cassidy said. “So it’s the All-Atlantic [Title]. So if you touch the Atlantic Ocean, this belt could be defended in that place. So I’m basically the king of the Atlantic Ocean and I can go wherever I want.
“I won it from a person who’s been, for lack of a better word, a thorn in my side for my entire career. He’s probably my rival, my nemesis, I would say. His name is Pac, and I finally beat him. I wrestled for championships eight other times, or six or seven other times in AEW, and I lost them all. Except for this one. So it took me a while to get here, but I eventually got it.
Cassidy, Trent Beretta, and Chuck Taylor unsuccessfully challenged Pac, Penta El Zero Miedo, and Rey Fenix on the October 18 episode of AEW Dynamite.
WrestleZone will have coverage of the October 26 episode of AEW Dynamite as it airs on Wednesday.
