“He [Bandido] had the very bad habit, which I find very unprofessional, of every time I’m looking for him for work, he doesn’t answer the f*****g phone,” Konnan said. “Like, I’m doing him a favor. I’m not going to hunt you down to get you work. He did that when he was in Ring of Honor too.

“A lot of these wrestlers, they got to the United States, get a big head, and they start charging with their ego, not what the market can support. They don’t give a f**k ’cause they’re in the United States. But when Ring of Honor closed, oh, there they were, looking for work. What happens in AEW if they cut you or you get injured or something happens? I’m not going to f*****g forget.”

Konnan was a bit more subdued in his criticism regarding Rush’s departure, saying it was over a miscommunication and that creative issues prevented AAA from using Rush more. Nevertheless, Konnan wasn’t totally soft on the La Faccion Ingobernables member either, calling out the AEW star for having too high a price tag, and for also handling his AAA departure in an unprofessional manner. Ultimately, Konnan suggested success in America led to things going to Rush and Bandido’s heads.
