Nick Wayne outlines some of his goals when he eventually joins AEW.
In February 2022, during a DEFY Wrestling card, Nick Wayne was surprised by Darby Allin, who offered him a contract with All Elite Wrestling.
Currently, Nick Wayne is 17 years old and when he turns 18, his contract with AEW will officially go into effect. Speaking to Eric Novak on the All Real Wrestling Podcast, Wayne noted that when the time comes, he wants to accomplish everything that there is in AEW, including wrestling two former WWE Champions, CM Punk and Bryan Danielson.
"AEW, since that's where I'm heading once I turn 18, I would love to spend as much time as I can there. I would love to do everything there is to do in AEW. Whether that be winning their World Title, their [TNT Title], or their Tag Team Title, I want to do everything. I want to wrestle their top guys, [Bryan Danielson], CM Punk, I want to do everything there is to possibly do in AEW.”
Wayne also noted that once he is older, he's looking forward to giving back to the business.
“Also, a very big one that I'm starting to do, or that I've been doing these past few months, but I think it'll definitely mean a lot more when I'm older, is giving back to pro wrestling and give back to the younger guys in this business. I really want to just influence the younger guys — I know, I'm kind of like the very youngest right now, being 17. But once I'm older, in my 20s and 30s, I would just love if I could coach or teach or just be able to influence the younger generation of wrestling and, really give back, like what people now are doing with me. I would love to give back to the newer generation coming.”
Nick Wayne previously told Denise Salcedo that he is learning all about television wrestling in AEW during his apprenticeship deal. Learn more here.
