“We have a show here in Brisbane at the `Cauldron’ and I can only imagine how loud that place is going to be, and I’m already frothing at the mouth to get over here and wrestle,” pro wrestling great Wight said.
“AEW prides itself on having some of the best in-ring grapplers in the world.”
The AEW roster includes the likes of former WWE performers Wight, Chris Jericho, Ricochet, Christian Cage, Adam Copeland (Edge), Bryan Danielson (Daniel Bryan), Mercedes Mone (Sasha Banks) and Gold Coast-raised ‘Timeless’ Toni Storm.
“One of the things that inspired me to come to AEW was to be a part of and see something grow,” Wight said.
“There’s an amazing opportunity there. There’s a lot of incredible young talent.
“You want all companies to do well because it creates opportunities. You might be in one company and not find yourself, make a transition to another company and find yourself.
“Fans are disputing which company’s better and which wrestlers are better, and that’s great stuff.
“It shows the business is doing well as a whole. If the business wasn’t doing well as a whole, no-one would be talking about it, and that would be sad times.”
Storm said fans at the Brisbane show should expect “absolute mayhem”.
“It’s not very often we get back to the land Down Under,” she said.
“This is going to be a huge event, and a big deal.”
