SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

In the latest episode of AEW Unrestricted, Frankie Kazarian discussed working with Christian Cage, being underrated as a talent, and more.

On the podcast, Kazarian mentioned that Christian has the highest wrestling IQ of anyone he’s been in the ring with. “Christian is a guy that has maybe the highest wrestling IQ that I’ve ever been in the ring with, and when I say that I mean just having mastered professional wrestling and knowing what works and what doesn’t,” said Kazarian.

Kazarian also talked about being underrated as a performer. “He’s [Christian Cage] often been called one of the most underrated wrestlers, and people have put that tag on me, and I wear that as a badge of honor,” said Kazarian. “If you’re going to call me underrated, that’s fine because you’ve called a lot of my heroes underrated.”
