A popular AEW star has given an emotional promo on their career and future following a recent big Dynamite loss.
Daniel Garcia picked up his first win in the Continental Classic tournament in his fifth and final match of the tournament, when he played spoiler to Brody King.
Garcia’s win came after a great story throughout his previous four defeats, with Garcia also picking up the pin for his team at AEW Worlds End.
However, Garcia’s momentum came to a halt on this week’s Dynamite, when he was defeated by Swerve Strickland in the main event of the show.
AEW has since uploaded a social media exclusive sit-down interview with Garcia and Renee Paquette, where he opened up on his 2023, and what is in store for him in 2024.
Garcia said:
“I went almost a year here just wanting and being hungry for opportunity after opportunity. I mean, I basically sat a year in the back or a year just walking out Chris Jericho to his theme song and you know, not doing anything on my own. I just feel like, you know, Now is my time to show what I can do to have these matches, and getting put in the Continental Classic was such a blessing.”
Renee then asked Garcia about his previous start and stops in his career, and how he can get himself back on track following previous losses.
He added:
“I think if I had that answer, I think it would be a much different position that I’m in right now. You know, I lost tonight. So I hope it’s not another case of me getting to the biggest wins in my career. Losing the next big match that I have. I don’t want to be somebody that people look at as what could have been. ‘Daniel Garcia has so much potential, but he fumbled. Garcia had so much potential, but he kept losing. Daniel Garcia had so much potential, but he just couldn’t get the job done.’ I don’t want to be one of those people. I don’t want to have regrets about my own and I don’t want the audience to have regrets about my own career.”
