Former GCW Champion and AEW Dynamite debutant on last week’s episode Nick Gage recently appeared on Sean Waltman’s Pro Wrestling 4 Life podcast. The Deathmatch King discussed his experience on the show, including how AEW President Tony Khan treated him backstage.
“Tony [Khan] came up to me all fired up. As soon as I got to the back, he came up to me,” Nick Gage began on the podcast.
“I looked that man dead in his eyes, and I said, ‘You’ve got something awesome going here. Thank you for making me feel at home'” Gage revealed.
“I was fired up. He said, ‘Thank you, what an awesome match.’ He showed me nothing but love,” Nick Gage added, praising the AEW President.
Nick Gage also discussed the issue with Dominos pizza, who were not happy that Gage used a pizza cutter on Chris Jericho’s forehead moments before a commercial break of theirs.
“I didn’t even know about Domino’s until it was over and someone told me”, Gage revealed. “I was focused on carving up Chris Jericho.”
“So I got to the back, leaking out of my arm, and they told me, ‘There was a Domino’s commercial after you were carving Chris Jericho up.’ I started laughing’”what a coincidence. I was focused on making that man bleed,” Gage concluded.
