Cage speaks about being at the post-Hard To Kill taping.
Kicking off IMPACT Wrestling reverting to the TNA branding was the Hard To Kill pay-per-view. The day after, the company held a television taping and one of the advertised bouts was Will Ospreay versus Josh Alexander.
Former IMPACT World Champion and current AEW talent Brian Cage was present at the taping and he recounted his experience on the Wilde On podcast. Cage had planned to leave to go to the gym, but he learned that Ospreay versus Alexander was coming up and decided to stay.
Since we (Cage & Taylor Wilde) were talking about TNA so much, I went to the show (on 1/14)… I probably got there about halfway through the show… It was awesome, and obviously I’m there and I know so many people wrestling-wise and office-wise so it was great to see everyone, say hi, say hello and the crowd was so hyped, especially for the Josh (Alexander) and (Will) Ospreay match. It was amazing. I actually was gonna leave to go to the gym, because it was so late, and then as soon as I was leaving, they’re about to go on. I was like, ‘God dammit, I gotta stay and watch this match’ and I’m so glad that I did. The crowd was so hyped for it.
Cage got involved in the main event of the 1/31 AEW Dynamite. He assisted Swerve Strickland in his bout against Rob Van Dam.
The numbers game was evened when HOOK came to Van Dam’s aid and brawled with Cage.
