Nick Wayne says one of his goals is to have Jordan Oliver by his side in AEW.
Before Nick Wayne became Christian Cage's chosen prodigy, he was tearing it up on the independent circuit as part of a tag team with Jordan Oliver known as the East West Express.
Even though he is currently on a different career path, Wayne says he is still very close to Oliver and he has a desire to see that tag team continue on the grand stage of All Elite Wrestling.
"It's one of my goals, to be honest. Let's just put it that way," Wayne said during his recent appearance on Casual Conversations with The Wrestling Classic. "I have people that I'm very close with outside of AEW, and Jordan is one of them. He's one of my best friends in this world, honestly. As a human, has a wrestler, Jordan is one of my best friends. We just clicked so easily because one time on the independents, we got paired up together to do a tag team match.
"We clicked. We were in sync. It looked like a mirror image and we were like, 'Wow. We got something here.' So we continued to team on for about a year or so and win the GCW Tag Team Championship," he added. "We were one of the best on the independents. We were ranked 65 PWI's tag team [list] and we only tagged for a year. So it's definitely a goal of mine that I want Jordan Oliver in AEW. I want him by my side. I want to continue the East West Express for as long as possible because I truly think we have something special for such a young age that we are and the [synchrony] we have. So it's definitely a goal of mine to one day, when the stars align, to have Jordan in AEW and continue the East West Express.
