Mexican wrestling legend Konnan has appeared on AEW programming over the past few months sporadically. The former WCW star appeared first for the company during the Stadium Stampede 2 match and most recently on an episode of Dynamite where he went face-to-face with Tully Blanchard.
Konnan recently discussed what it was like appearing on the show as part of his Keepin It 100 with Konnan podcast.
“It was one of the greatest experiences of my career,” Konnan noted during the show. “Because everybody’s very, very happy, everybody’s very helpful, everybody’s very professional.”
“There’s this one room in there, that’s with Don Callis, Kenny Omega, the Young Bucks. They’re all in there, they’re playing basketball games, they’re watching the NBA. It’s a very fun atmosphere” the former WCW star would note.
“And I thought to myself ‘wow, I wish I would have grown up in this type of atmosphere.’ And everybody is happy. I saw Vickie, I hadn’t seen her in fifteen years. I hadn’t seen Jerry Lynn in fifteen years, I hadn’t seen Big Show in like fifteen years. Legit, they’re very happy” he continued.
Konnan would finish by saying that his praise for the company atmosphere was genuine; and not just trying to gain favor and get a job from Tony Khan.
“It’s a really good, I’m not trying to get a job or anything like that” Konnan claimed. “It’s a real cool vibe. Even after the show, they have food for everybody in this big conference room. You can take food to your room, you can eat it right there and then they have this other little lounge where everyone is just listening to music.”
