Colten Gunn: We Pushed For ‘Many Men,’ It Fit Us, We Were The Most Hated
On the April 5 episode of AEW Dynamite, The Gunns (Austin Gunn & Colten Gunn) defended their AEW Tag Team Championships against FTR (Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler).
Though the Gunns were not victorious, they stole headlines before the match started when they entered to “Many Men” by 50 Cent.
Appearing on Dynamite Download, Colten commented on using the song.
“It was a joint effort for that. Me and Austin really pushed for Many Men. Just because, some people were like, ‘It didn’t match.’ No, seriously, we were the most hated people on that show. 100%. We beat the Acclaimed, we beat Top Flight, we’re the tag champs and going against FTR to end their careers. Yeah, many men wish death upon me. Me and Austin would drive to the gym every day and just play that. ‘Imagine.’ We were like, ‘If we don’t ask, it’s going to be no. So, we’re going to ask.’ We had to do a lot to get that, and we did. I’m so happy we did. Once it played when we were rehearsing, one of the production guys had a vision for it, ‘I think it’s dark, but then the spotlight hits. What if we spun around you?’ ‘What does that even mean?’” he said with a laugh.
The Gunns now have a new theme, which was done by Austin.
The Gunns are two-thirds of the ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champions alongside Jay White.
Elsewhere during the interview, Colten commented on the possibility of being a singles talent. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
