Eddie Kingston on AEW Letting Him Be Himself, Having the Freedom to Work Off-Script In Promos – Wrestling Headlines

AEW star Eddie Kingston recently spoke with Anthony Sulla-Heffinger of Yahoo Sports to promote Wednesdays AEW Dynamite on TBS premiere. Below are a few highlights from the interview:

AEW letting Kingston be himself:

If Im not into it or I cant be myself, its not going to work. AEW knew what they were getting when they signed me and they have gone with it. Ive been lucky and Ive been blessed to be at a place that lets me be myself. Everyone wants to say character, but the Eddie Kingston you see is just me at 17 turned up a thousand notches.

Having the freedom to work off-script when cutting promos in AEW, his recent program with CM Punk being the perfect example of how Kingstons brash charisma can flip an audience on its head:

I feel like if I have to discuss it with you, were not going to have a good time. I like to react to things, moments, people and I like whoever is working with me to do the same. If were not having a good time [in the ring], then the most important people, the fans, arent going to be entertained. Lets try and bring a little bit of reality back to pro wrestling.

Stay tuned for more.
