On the latest episode of AEW Collision, The Acclaimed reunited to take on The Swirl (Blake Christian and Lee Johnson). Even though Max Caster and Anthony Bowens won this showdown, this reunion was temporary. Jerry Lynn tried to persuade them to put their differences aside and join forces again. However, The Five-Tool Player has no intention of returning to the past.After the conclusion of Collision, a backstage interviewer asked Bowens how it felt to team up with Caster again. The 34-year-old angrily replied that he didn't sign up for it. He accused Jerry Lynn of threatening to withhold his pay and impose a suspension. All Elite Wrestling shared the exclusive footage on its X handle.“I was put in this tag match against my will by Jerry Lynn. I was threatened my [sic] money. I was threatened a suspension. I got bills to pay. I got a mortgage to pay. I gotta redo my parents' house, and a guy like Jerry Lynn is trying to take money out of my pocket. All for this nostalgia. For me to go and join Max. I don’t wanna do it. I didn’t ask for it,” Bowens said.The Acclaimed members are former AEW World Tag Team Champions. They have also held the World Trios Championship with WWE Hall of Famer Billy Gunn.Anthony Bowens opens up about his frustrations with AEWA few days ago, a fan on X (formerly Twitter) stated that Anthony Bowens is underrated and deserves to be promoted more. Bowens responded to this statement by saying that All Elite Wrestling management overlooks him. However, he added that he is earning his stripes."I get overlooked bc [sic] I’ve never had an opportunity to go 20-30 minutes or more with someone in AEW. That is really when you start to earn your stripes. You can’t make a determination without giving people the chance to prove you wrong," he wrote.Anthony Bowens @Bowens_OfficialLINKI get overlooked bc I’ve never had an opportunity to go 20-30 minutes or more with someone in AEW.
