The New Level Speak Out On Wrestling Outside AEW

ByStuart TaraProfessional Wrestling Journalist

The freedom that comes with leaving WWE appears to be giving Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed a very different perspective on what they can do next.

During their appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show, Creed explained that their AEW agreement does not prevent them from taking wrestling opportunities outside the company.

We can jump around and do some other things. There are a lot of opportunities to go to other places and wrestle people. The fact that tag team wrestling is all across the world is something that is really exciting to us.

Kingston admitted that having this much control over his career is still something he is getting accustomed to. He emphasized that they are open to exploring opportunities both within the United States and internationally.

Everything is on the table. I’m still getting used to being able to have so much freedom and do what we want to do. There are opportunities aplenty. As you see with a lot of AEW wrestlers doing all kinds of things on the roster and internationally as well. Kaun was wrestling as champion in Africa. The possibilities are endless. It’s very exciting.

That could open up some interesting possibilities for New Level moving forward. After capturing championship gold during their AEW debut, Kingston and Creed now have the freedom to potentially take their tag team to other promotions around the world.


And with that kind of freedom, where would you like to see New Level wrestle next?
