…I have had nothing but positive and constructive interactions both personally and professionally with EVERYONE associated with AEW, from @tonykhan to @CodyRhodes & @TheBrandiRhodes, to the ring crew and beyond. I believe in this vision, and I am proud to be along for the ride.

…Since falling in love with pro wrestling in 1991, and starting training in 2002, many have helped me get to this point. In specific, two people:

…and @MikeQuackenbush, who trained me and still teaches me something almost every day.
It was his vision of @chikarapro that allowed me to meet and work with @MattJackson13 & @NickJacksonYB and put me on this path. No doubt this would NOT have happened if it weren't for Mike.

I do and will forever love independent wrestling, exceptionally its DIY spirit. Wherever I go, it will be with me forever.
As far as getting rid of me on the indies, it might not be that easy, and it might not happen as soon as you think…

..so stay tuned, and know that I deeply appreciate all the kind words and support you have all given me over the last 17.5 years. I have very few dates open over the next couple months, so don’t hesitate to reach out.
I hope you’ll continue to support me and AEW. Thank you. ??
