Alex Windsor didn’t hesitate when asked why she chose AEW. During an interview with The Wrestling Classic, she broke down exactly what made the company stand out and why signing there felt like the right move for her career.
While discussing her decision, Windsor explained that AEW’s presentation was a major factor. She admitted that she didn’t grow up deeply watching wrestling, but said AEW’s style made it easy to imagine how it could inspire someone new to the sport.
“I think it was it was the great—not a alternative to WWE—but I just think how it looked. I can imagine obviously, you know, like I said, I hadn't really seen wrestling before. I can imagine if I saw an AEW show as a fan as a kid and that was my first introduction to wrestling, I would want to be a wrestler after watching it.”
She continued by pointing to AEW’s matches and overall presentation as key reasons why she felt drawn to the company. In her view, AEW reflects what professional wrestling is supposed to be.
“I just think how it's presented, how the matches are, I just think it as a company it embodies what great wrestling is.”
Windsor made it clear that AEW wasn’t just another option — it was the place she believed wrestlers should want to be. She said the company’s reputation and identity made it feel like the right destination for anyone serious about making it in the business.
“So I just think whether you're a fan or you know, a wrestler who's, you know, aspiring to, you know, to get signed somewhere, I just think AEW is the place that again it doesn't lie like it's where the best wrestle and I just think as a company I just think it that's how it comes across and that's I think anyone who wants to to be anything in wrestling, honestly, I think it is the company to go for.”
Windsor’s comments give a clear look at what pushed her toward AEW and why the company stood out when it came time to choose her next step in wrestling. With more talent continuing to sign, her words show how AEW’s presentation is still playing a big role in attracting new names.
