The Acclaimed officially split up at AEW Collision Maximum Carnage with Anthony Bowens making his choice.
Caster began by saying that Bowens was upset because Caster is "The Best Wrestler Alive." Caster showed his trademark paperwork to prove his claim.
Bowens said that's not why he's upset. He said he's up because for five years, he's had to lie to the people because the truth is, Caster is an edge lord piece of shit. Bowens said he has every tool necessary to be AEW World Champion and that he is the pride of AEW.
Billy Gunn made his way to the ring and asked what was wrong with them. Caster said that Billy doesn't care about The Acclaimed, and that he attached himself to the group so he could hear the people chant his name. "It should be about me.....and Anthony." Caster told Bowens that he needed to choose between him and Billy.
Bowens acted like he was going to scissor Caster, but instead flipped him off. Caster said he would prove he's the best wrestler alive, and that everyone else sucks.
Bowens said he didn't need Caster, and scissored Billy one last time.
Platinum Max has his own ideas with what's been wrong with The Acclaimed lately...
