10 Things We Learned From Christian Cage On Renée Paquette's Podcast

10. He Didn’t Know About AEW's Announcement

Wow.

That's all this fan could think when he found out that Christian didn't have a clue that fellow new hire Paul Wight would be hyping up his debut on last week's episode of Dynamite. Amazingly, "nothing was signed" before that announcement aired, and Cage didn't even know AEW planned to tease his arrival at all.

He was still in the midst of negotiations with the company about coming in, but he wasn't concerned in the slightest - Christian told Renée that he and Tony Khan had "hit it off" big time during early chats. In fact, they got on so well that their very first proper conversation on the phone lasted around two hours.

Cage didn't think things would go that well before sitting down to talk turkey. So, when he watched the former Big Show whip the internet into a frenzy last Wednesday, Christian only smiled and hoped he could live up to the hype.
