10 Things We Learned From Christian Cage On Renée Paquette's Podcast
2. AEW Finalised His T-Shirt On Saturday
On Saturday night, Cage was sitting down to watch some ice hockey when his phone lit up. It was AEW, and they wanted to talk over some ideas for a brand new t-shirt for the newcomer. More to the point, All Elite wanted to throw a design together quickly so they could start selling the thing ASAP.
Saturday night.
The fact all this chatter happened less than 24 hours before Revolution is astounding. Christian had some ideas of his own, and he liked some of the designs the company sent over. However, he knew that he'd have to send out a powerful message that'd set the tone for his run with AEW. That's where "Outwork Everyone" came from.
Cage blurted that out over the phone, and told Renée that it just popped into his head. He knows he'll have to work his arse off to live up to it, but that pressure will be good for him. It's also catchy, which was important to him and the merch department.
