Following his historic world championship victory this past weekend in Chicago, the first ever AEW World Champion took to the backstage area, still stained with the color of his own dried blood.
Instead of a massive celebration awaiting him on the other side of the curtain, the 30-year veteran was met with the thunderously loud sound of silence, as the AEW locker room seemed filled with the same sense of dread as the people of Westeros when Joffrey Baratheon took the Iron Throne.
