Wheeler Yuta recently took part in a virtual signing for K&S WrestleFest, during which he spoke about his career in AEW thus far.
Among the topics covered in the virtual signing were Yuta's ascension through the ranks in AEW as part of the Blackpool Combat Club with William Regal, Jon Moxley and Bryan Danielson, as well as the possibility of Cesaro joining the group.
Featured below are some of the highlights from Wheeler Yuta's K&S WrestleFest virtual signing where he touches on these topics with his thoughts.
On being part of the Blackpool Combat Club alongside Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley [and] William Regal: “It was definitely very different. Part of it is like Chuck Taylor and Orange Cassidy, they are my friends in real life. I’ve known those dudes for years. Early on, it kinda felt like I’m in this big position, it’s still a huge position but it’s with my friends, I’m in my comfort zone. But when this started happening, it was like, alright, this is a step up, this is something completely different than what I’ve been doing. Now I have to earn these guys respect as well, the same that I did with my friends before. It was definitely a big step up, it was like a leg switch. But, now we’re rocking and rolling.”
On Cesaro possibly joining the group: “Cesaro’s awesome. I would support him in any role anywhere I can see him wrestle. He’s incredible. But I think he would fit in very well with us, he’s got history with [William] Regal as well.”
