During his Wrestling With Freddie podcast, the Scooby-Doo star revealed that his new pro wrestling company will step into the extreme. Unlike WWE, they will feature death match wrestling.

“I guarantee you it wouldn’t even be up for debate if you brought it up as a writer in the creative room, they wouldn’t even let you bring it to Vince. They’re too scared of that with stockholders. You can blame them for it or you can understand that that’s just the way it is for it to be as successful as its become.”

AEW has held a couple death matches in the past, but that didn’t pan out too well. Some complained, and Papa John’s even pulled their sponsorship when Nick Gage’s pizza cutter spot went down with very unfortunate timing.
