QT Marshall talks RD Evans.
In 2013, Evans and Marshall had a small stint in Ring Of Honor as a tag team called Marshall Law. Aside from one win over the duo of Corey Hollis and Mike Posey, Evans and Marshall lost every other match as a team, competing against the likes of The American Wolves and Outlaw Inc.
Now, Evans and Marshall work alongside each other outside of the ring, as they both have backstage roles in AEW.
While chatting with Fightful for a new interview, Marshall talked about how Danielson pitched for Evans to come into AEW once he finished up with TNA.
"Bryan Danielson did pitch him to our legal team and Tony, and then I kind of pitched him as well. It was like, ‘Oh, we've already heard that name come up.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, he just left TNA.’ He was always cool to me and, we did team together and stuff."
Marshall then talked about how teaming with Evans was a bright spot for him during a rough period in ROH.
"Like I said, when I first got to ring of honor back then, I was very serious about certain things and then once I kind of saw the writing on the wall, which was for me, I didn't want to be there. I just didn't like it. It wasn't my style of wrestling as everyone could tell and it was putting a lot on my body and my mind. So once I got in there with RD, I was starting to have more fun, then by the end I actually just started enjoying it. Like, ‘Oh, this is like an odd couple tag team that we can have a lot of fun. I can be a little more serious. He could be a little more funny,’ and so on and so forth."
Marshall went on to say that Tony Khan has taken a liking to Evans and how he does stuff backstage in AEW.
"But we always stayed in touch. He's been great and I think Tony has really taken a liking to him and just how he does stuff backstage and with the promos and he's got really good ideas and just he's a good person to have around."
