Former WCW World Heavyweight Champion David Arquette thinks AEW's Jungle Boy will make it all the way to the top of the company, and indeed the entire industry.

Speaking to Adam Wilbourn from WhatCulture.com, the star of upcoming documentary "You Cannot Kill David Arquette" said; "I think he could become a world champion. He's getting bigger too! He's still getting taller, he's literally still growing, it's amazing! I think he's a movie star as well, the kid's a super talent." He continued; "He's incredibly tough. Never smokes, never drinks. He's got his head on his shoulders, he's not consumed with the ego or crazy about girls...he's very focused...I can't wait to see what he does with his life."

Arquette's relationship with professional wrestling beyond watching from the stands began in 2000 when World Championship Wrestling made the controversial and divisive decision to put their World Championship on him. As a lifelong fan, Arquette himself knew the potential damage it could do to the legacy of the title, and nobly donated all the money he made from the run to the families of recently passed wrestlers Owen Hart, Brian Pillman, and Bobby Duncum Jr.
