Anthony Bowens: My Recent AEW Singles Run Was Fun
Bowens went solo during Max Caster’s suspension
Sep 16, 2021
When Mx Caster was suspended by AEW for unsavoury remarks during one of his pre-match freestyles, Acclaimed partner Anthony Bowens used the time to show the world what he could do as a singles star.
Speaking on My Mom’s Basement, Bowens mentioned how he spent most of his career as a singles star, and had to ‘re-learn’ tag wrestling before Caster’s suspension, saying:
"I was a singles wrestler on the Independents for eight years pre-AEW and pre-The Acclaimed. I was in a tag [team] maybe the first two years with AC Gamble, The Untouchables, we did a tag team thing for a little bit and I didn't particularly understand tag team wrestling back then, I kind of just did it. When I got to AEW and got paired with Caster, all of sudden we're in the best tag division in the world, I had to re-learn everything and fast. It was a challenge and a bit stressful as much as it was fun.
“I've had a recent singles run and it was fun. It was good to show everyone...in a tag, something you get limited because you're sharing time with someone else and there is four people instead of two. I got to show AEW that I can go as a singles guy with some of the top people. Honestly, as long as I'm on the show, I don't mind either one,"
