Orange Cassidy reigns over all the oceans now.
Cassidy previously won the AEW All-Atlantic Championship, making him the king of the Atlantic Ocean, at least in his eyes. But on the March 8 episode of AEW Dynamite, AEW announced that the title would be “leveled up” and renamed the International Championship.
Speaking with William Mullally of Esquire Middle East, “Freshly Squeezed” was asked to share his thoughts on the name change.
“I don’t know if just reigning over one ocean was good enough for me,” Cassidy said. “Like, why not just do them all.”
When asked to name his favorite ocean, Cassidy responded by saying, “People ask me that all the time. I would have to say Atlantic just because I was king of it once.”
Cassidy also made it clear that he’s not a fan of Jeff Jarrett right now, as the legend smashed a guitar over his knee on the March 8 episode of AEW Dynamite.
“Jeff Jarrett is maybe my least favorite person on Earth right now,” Cassidy said. “The reason why I’m sitting right now with my leg up on another chair is because my knee is killing me right now. You know, Jeff Jarrett’s a guy who plays a guitar and he struts like a country music guy and he took his guitar and he smashed me over the knee with it.”
Cassidy will have his chance to score some revenge when he defends the AEW International Championship against Jarrett on the March 15 episode of AEW Dynamite. WrestleZone will have coverage of the show as it airs.
