Private Party at the top of the mountain now.
At AEW Fright Night Dynamite, Private Party (Zay and Quen) beat the Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) to win the AEW World Tag Team Championship. In doing so, they won titles for the first time in AEW.
Speaking with Tim Battle and Eli on the Battleground Podcast, Zay and Quen were asked whether they had thought about their title win from a historical perspective and what it meant for their legacy.
"Honestly, I didn’t think of it like that. I just thought of it like, about damn time, we did it. So legacy, this proves it. This right here is the legacy. This is what we’ve been striving for, this is what we wanted since we were training in a boxing gym. This is everything. You ever think of those guys that want to climb mountains and how they feel when they finally got to the top of the mountain? That’s how we feel. We made the climb. We’re on top of the mountain," Quen said.
Zay then stated that it was rewarding to know that they had solidified their names in history. He highlighted some of the other names who had held the AEW World Tam Team Championship and said they were now in the conversation about top tag teams.
"It’s pretty rewarding, knowing the fact that we are in history. We solidified our names in history, and to be along names like the Young Bucks and FTR and Sting, Darby [Allin] and Kenny Omega and Adam Page, our names are aligned with all those guys. So it kind of solidifies us as at the top. We’re now part of that conversation as top tag teams because we have this gold around our shoulders," Zay said.
In a recent interview, Zay said that the Young Bucks do not get the credit that they deserve. Check out his comments here.
