Ilja Dragunov est vraiment très heureux de joindre la AEW.
Lors du point de presse qui a suivi WrestleDream, Dragunov a affirmé qu’il répondra à son besoin d’avoir de la compétition.
Sans nommer directement la WWE, Dragunov n’aime pas se sentir “limité” dans ses actions et ainsi tourner en rond.
Dragunov aime vraiment lutter dans le ring et la AEW lui apporte une bouffée d’air frais, avec davantage de liberté, comme c’était le cas sur le circuit indy.
“My decisions and factors? I’ve been doing this right now almost since 14 years. And I’ve been through a lot of phases when it comes down to my indie wrestling career, professional wrestling career in general. I have travelled to places. I’ve been under contract. I never had the chance where I didn’t feel like I can’t bet on myself. And if I feel that this chance is limited and it gets more limited, and I feel like I’m getting stuck somewhere.
Not because of external factors, just feeling stuck in general because I have this urge to fight. I really love to fight, and I want to compete and I want to step up. And if I feel that the air in a certain environment gets thinner for me, I need to breathe. That’s what I did today here. If I need a place to breathe new fresh air, see a new landscape and see what the world can offer to me to satisfy this hunger for competition. And that is basically the easiest answer I can give you to that question.”
Dragunov espère entre autres affronter Jon Moxley, Samoa Joe et Kyle Fletcher.
Tony Khan a par ailleurs annoncé que Dragunov luttera mercredi, à Dynamite.
