As Chris Jericho continued to dive deeper into the match, QT Marshall revealed that Tony Khan was very open to Konnan’s idea. In fact, the AEW owner saw this as an opportunity to potentially show the world, especially the incredibly vocal contingent on social media, that Marshall was a lot more than a comedy act in the squared circle.

“Tony [is] a firm believer when it comes to me that it’s good for me to go out and wrestle in other places because I can help maybe possibly turn the Twitter fans into seeing a different side of me,” he said. 

“The Twitter fans who give Tony a lot of crap for putting me on TV. For some reason, they really, really hate me, so this is what he specifically said: ‘I would never let two of my contracted talents go to another company and do an angle like this that could lead to something bigger that I know would do a great rating for my show. But I believe in you and I do believe this will help your career overall.’ Thank goodness they were able to tell a good story for the past couple of months. We were doing vignettes here and they built it up to this first-ever ambulance match in Mexico … It was wild,” recalled Marshall.

Now that he has come out on top over the Death Triangle member, Marshall has earned a title opportunity in AAA. He is scheduled to compete in a fatal four-way match at the next Triplemania event on August 12, 2023 in Mexico City for the relinquished Latin American Championship. He hopes that he can win the title and proudly bring it back to his QTV compatriots and defend it in an AEW ring.
