Anthony Bowens and Max Caster promised the \u2018biggest scissor party on earth\u2019 and they delivered under the Wembley Stadium arch at AEW All In London.<\/p>\n
Everybody loves The Acclaimed, and openly gay wrestler Bowens \u2013 who is the first gay titleholder in All Elite Wrestling history after claiming tag gold with Caster in 2022 \u2013 added to his already rich legacy.<\/p>\n
The duo teamed up with WWE legend Billy Gunn as he reprised his Bad Ass persona as they challenged House of Black.<\/p>\n
The pink-clad trio emerged triumphed in a highly entertaining match, and Bowens got the mic after the bell to share a sweet message to their mentor.<\/p>\n
He said: \u2018We told you two months ago we were going to bring you back to the top and put the gold you deserve around your waist. And here it is.\u2019<\/p>\n
He handed the gold over, but there still more business to be done as The Acclaimed wanted to make good on a promise involving their signature \u2018scissor\u2019 hand gesture.<\/p>\n
\u2018But it really wasn\u2019t \u2013 it was super, super positive. And the fact we got a full arena giving a standing ovation and chanting \u2018he\u2019s gay\u2019\u2026 all the reactions in the ring were very genuine between myself, Billy [Gunn] and Caster.\u2019<\/p>\n
AEW All In London returns to Wembley Stadium on August 25, 2024.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Got a story?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a celebrity story, video or pictures get in touch with the Metro.co.uk entertainment team by emailing us celebtips@metro.co.uk, calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff page \u2013 we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n
