Brian Cage on issues he faced signing with AEW after Impact Wrestling

Brian Cage is set to take part in one of the most massive matches of his career at AEW Dynamite: Fight For The Fallen, but it appears that he was supposed to be in the company long before he actually made his debut. Cage revealed that AEW was set to feature him in their February pay-per-view, but he tore his bicep the day before his contract with Impact Wrestling ended. He moved on from Impact Wrestling, but he could not make his debut for AEW. Due to this injury, he needed surgery, and Brian Cage’s debut in AEW was delayed several months. Tony Khan talked to him about the issues and kept him under contract and promised that they had faith in him.

Brian Cage also talked about how he was supposed to appear for AEW in a one-off at AEW: Double or Nothing last year in the pre-show Battle Royal. Unfortunately, that did not happen and Impact Wrestling was furious with the idea of their Impact Wrestling World Champion of the time being featured on a pre-show Battle Royal and not even being booked to win it by AEW.
