Dec 3, 2021
Eddie Kingston says he harbours a goal of being the World Champion in All Elite Wrestling and becoming the guy the promotion is built around.
Kingston signed a contract with AEW in mid-2020 and has enjoyed high-profile battles with the likes of Jon Moxley, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk and Kenny Omega during his time with the company.
Having achieved his first goal of being an AEW wrestler, Kingston is keeping his eye on reaching the next one - the AEW World TItle.
Speaking to CBS Sports, when asked for what's coming next, Kingston said: ""New milestones, of course. [The goal] to be the top guy in AEW. I reached one goal. I made it to AEW, contracted, make it a living. My nephew can show people on the TNT app, there's a plug, or on the AEW YouTube there's another plug, he gets to show off that his uncle is a wrestler. I reached one goal.
"The next goal is to be the top guy. To be the champion. To be the guy on the posters. The guy that is AEW. That's what Kenny [Omega] was. That's what Mox was. That was [Chris] Jericho was. And that's what 'Hangman' [Adam Page] is now. That's always the goal."
