When The Gunns won the AEW World Tag Team Championships from The Acclaimed, no one really knew how to feel in the moment. It was a huge shock for everyone watching in the stands, around the world, and especially to Max Caster & Anthony Bowens. Two men who weren’t shocked were Austin & Colton Gunn – who know just how good they are, and will always bet on themselves.
The Gunns Always Get Thrown In The Deep End And Prove They Can Swim
During a new interview with WrestleZone, the current AEW World Tag Team Champions and sons would have a chance to speak about their rise in AEW. While fans always doubt their skills, Colton Gunn feels that they’re the best second generation wrestlers in AEW – and that their first title defence being a Fatal Four Way is so typical to how they’ve been treated. Colton was quoted saying the following.
“It’s typical of how we get treated in AEW. We’re the best second generation wrestlers, we’re the fast growing and we just get thrown into the deep end constantly and it’s sink or swim, and we always swim. We always come out on top. So you can put twenty teams in there, it does matter, we’re gonna win. But it’s typical. Like our first title defense, we can lose it and we’re not even gonna get pinned. It’s ridiculous but at the same time, I don’t care because we’re gonna win. Spoiler alert, we’re gonna keep the titles.”
They Don’t Care How Many Opponents Stand Before Them, They’ll Still Win
When asked about their opponents for AEW Revolution, Austin Gunn had the following to say about teams like The Acclaimed.
“Same mindset. Me and Colten have always been thrown in the deep end whether it’s our first TV match or our first in-ring live promo. Everytime we’re thrown in the deep end, everybody wants us to fail, but then we turn around and shove it right in their face when we succeed. Like Colten said, it’s so typical of how we get treated. We’re not going against one tag team, we’re going against three and we don’t even have to get pinned to lose them? Whatever. I don’t care. When it comes to The Acclaimed and my dad, we already beat them once. When it comes to a legend like Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal, eh, I don’t know, we might have something there. If it comes down to two teams, I’d be happy.”
