In an interview with Justin Barrasso for Undisputed, AEW star Josh Alexander discussed various topics, including his decision to join the company instead of WWE.
This is what Josh Alexander said, “If you believe what you read online, I just went with the highest bidder. The truth is that the money, schedule, and things like that didn’t play into my decision as much as looking at the pool of talent I wanted to work with. There’s a specific reason I signed where I did. I chose AEW because I want to be here.”
On how he didn’t dream of wrestling at WrestleMani:
“I didn’t grow up dreaming of wrestling at WrestleMania. I’ve worked with so many people in AEW that are now in high-profile positions, and I met Tony [Khan] during the Covid days. I vibed with him, and I think he’s a really good human being. He’s someone that actually cares about his talent and treats them like human beings.”
On being a fan of AEW since it started:
“I have watched AEW religiously since its inception. A lot of it is that my dream matches are in AEW. I’ve been chasing Kenny Omega for 10 years. If I’m going to wrestle him, it’s going to be in AEW.”
