Miro Claims He Was ‘Fined’ $75,000 By AEW, Says Orange Cassidy Is In Debt To Him

Miro’s pockets are a little lighter if he’s to be believed in a new promo. 

On the December 9 episode of AEW Dynamite, Miro cost Orange Cassidy the Dynamite Diamond Ring when he interfered in his match against MJF. The show closed when Miro leaving a path of bodies in his wake, even tossing one security guard off the ramp. 

It was a more aggressive side of Miro that fans had been asking for as his character had been criticized for being “a video game dork” alongside Kip Sabian and Penelope Ford. 

In a new YouTube video, Miro, cutting a promo that is seemingly in character, addressed the criticism of his booking. 

“Over the past few weeks, I wanted the world to understand a few things about me. To remember who I am because all the talk about ‘Miro is on Twitch playing games, Miro is on YouTube, Miro is building his social media empire.’ You’re damn right I am! Successful people have figured out that life is just about numbers, ratings, likes, subscribes, earnings. All that matters. You think the world is run by smart people? No. It’s run by influencers. That’s why I’m in AEW. I can be influential and on Twitch and YouTube. I am also here to hurt people, make money, and look pretty doing it,” he said.

He continued by calling out Orange Cassidy and addressing his attack.

“A few weeks ago, no man could stop me from laying out that walking Xanax Orange Cassidy. Why? I wanted to show that little pocket man what it felt like to get your ass whipped by a man wearing Versace Couture. You think you’re cool, Orange Cassidy, with your shades, your hair, and your jeans. I saw the fear. I smelt it when I trapped you where you stood. I get to the back. We have Tony Khan, Cody Rhodes, the security guards, yelling ‘$75,000 fine’ because I put three people in the hospital. That’s the money you owe me now, [Orange Cassidy]. Trust me, you do not want to be in debt to me. Pro wrestling is a great business, a simple business. They pay me to hurt you,” he stated.

Miro is set to take on Sonny Kiss on Tuesday’s episode of AEW Dark. On Dynamite, he will announce the wedding date for Kip Sabian and Penelope Ford. 

Fightful will have coverage of AEW Dark beginning at 7 p.m. ET.
