Chuck Taylor has explained why he didn’t make the save for his friend Orange Cassidy during this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, and that’s because of emergency dental surgery.
On the show, Cassidy defended the AEW International Championship against Jeff Jarrett. The title had been ‘leveled up’ as a result of a Shazam: Fury of the Gods movie tie-in, something the network wanted. At the end of the match, Jay Lethal, Satnam Singh, and Sonjay Dutt all got involved as they tried to help Jarrett win the title.
Trent Baretta came out to help, leading to everyone at ringside being sent to the back. Cassidy picked up the win after the Orange punch.
Taylor took to Twitter to explain that the surgery prevented him from supporting Cassidy on the show.
“Couldn’t help Orange because I had emergency dental surgery on my dumb skull,” he wrote. “I hope Greg got me a ticket for Shazam Fury Of The Gods.”
Taylor’s most recent match aired on the March 8th AEW Dark: Elevation.
