AEW star Brody King believes the Continental Classic tournament is setting the standard for what wrestling is in the company.
On the December 2 edition of AEW Collision, Brody King defeated Claudio Castagnoli to earn another three points and six points overall in the Blue League of the Continental Classic.
With this win, King became the first wrestler to reach six points and go 2-0 in the Blue League of the tournament.
In an AEW digital exclusive filmed after his win, the House of Black member spoke with AEW cameras about his win and feeling underestimated heading into the tournament. Brody said:
“2-0. Eddie Kingston and Claudio Castagnoli, and I’m 2-0. You know, the thing I love about this tournament is that we are the group that sets the standard for this tournament for years to come.”
“The first class for the Continental Classic, to set the standard for how professional wrestling should be delivered in AEW from here on out.”
“Coming into this tournament, they said I wasn’t a single competitor, that I didn’t have the edge up because I’m used to being in trios and tag teams, and now I am 2-0 against two of the toughest people in this company.”
“Don’t underestimate me. Don’t underestimate anybody in this tournament. Everybody is a threat. Be harder,”
Brody King is scheduled to face Daniel Garcia in the Blue League of the AEW Continental Classic on the December 9 episode of Collision.
