Ryan Nemeth has been trying to get Nic Nemeth to come to AEW.
Nic Nemeth has been a free agent since WWE released him in September. The former Dolph Ziggler has landed in TNA and NJPW; he holds the IWGP Global Championship, and he will challenge Moose for the TNA World Championship at TNA Rebellion.
Speaking on the Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling, Nic and Ryan Nemeth commented on the speculation that Nic would come to AEW after his WWE exit. (H/t Andrew Thompson of POST Wrestling for the transcription)
Nic Nemeth: My favorite thing was, when I left WWE, everyone goes, ‘Oh, you’re going to AEW to tag with your brother.’ I go, my brother’s great and I will tag with him and we will do a million projects together over the next 20 years. But I’m leaving this bubble of saying I’m the best one here for the last 10 years and I need to go prove that and became World Champion 10 times over, everywhere I go just to prove it to myself and everybody else and then we can get into Ryan and I bumping into each other, being a part of each other’s stories, becoming a team to five years later, fighting each other to the death, and that’s just at home, not at work.”
Ryan Nemeth: Since the first few weeks I was at AEW, I was trying to get him to go to AEW (he laughed). But, we’re all very open-minded about what’s happening and he’s on a pretty solid quest right now, taking over everywhere so, if we end up tagging together somewhere or fighting, you know? We’ve been on the same shows. We were on this big Puerto Rico, big WWC pay-per-view a month or two ago. That was pretty fun to be on the same show and I had a little run-in during his big match with Matt Cardona in GCW. I mean, we’re out there. Things are happening.
Nic Nemeth also reiterated that he intended to bounce around for a while before he eventually settled down somewhere.
