Don Callis plans to add more family members.
Don Callis turned his back on Kenny Omega on the May 10 episode of AEW Dynamite, stabbing him with a screwdriver during his cage match against Jon Moxley. Callis has since secured the services of Konosuke Takeshita, a client he has courted since the beginning of the year.
With Omega having The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson) and Hangman Page on his side, Callis is looking for backup as well.
"If there's anything left of The Elite after the BCC get done with them, the Don Callis Family is going to clean up the mess," he said on Talk is Jericho.
When Chris Jericho asked to confirm that Callis would be adding new family members, Callis said, "I have no choice. For our own personal safety. The Elite have made it clear, from rumors and things that I hear in the dressing room. I pay a lot of people here. I get information. Our buddy Dr. Luther is a backstage guy, I've known him a lot longer than I've known you. You don't think I don't hear things, Chris? They're looking to destroy us because we embarrassed Kenny Omega. I have no choice, for our own protection, for the protection of [Takeshita's] stellar career that is going to take place under me, that we have to have at least even numbers to combat this. I had a family with one member, Kenny Omega, and it blew up in my face. I'm not going to put myself in that situation again. I'm going to have a big family. Multiple family members. They're not just going to be anybody. They are going to be the types of athletes that are on the same level or higher than Kenny Omega, and we're going to take care of business."
Omega is set to defend his IWGP US Title against Will Ospreay at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door. You can find the current lineup for the show by clicking here.
