Kyle Fletcher Says He’d Love To ‘Deck’ Piers Morgan At Wembley

Kyle Fletcher isn’t holding back when it comes to dream opponents — and during a chat with the Daily Star, the AEW standout took aim at one of Britain’s most polarizing media figures with a fantasy match idea that sounded more like a promo than a casual interview answer.

The moment came when Fletcher was asked to name a British celebrity he’d want to face outside of wrestling. The question was meant to be lighthearted, but Fletcher leaned into it quickly, making sure he had the right name before unloading his response.

After asking for confirmation, Fletcher made it clear exactly who he had in mind.

“It's the uh I'm going to I'm going to get absolutely ridiculed if I get this wrong. Is it Piers Morgan?”

Once the name was confirmed, Fletcher didn’t soften his stance. Instead, he doubled down with a response that felt like it could easily play to a packed stadium crowd, especially if the setting was Wembley Stadium.

“I hate Piers. I think a lot of people do and I would love the chance especially in Wembley to just absolutely deck the crap out of him. Just I and I would be the biggest baby face in the whole country.”

The comments didn’t stop there. Fletcher pushed the joke even further by issuing what sounded like a direct challenge, turning the exchange into a mock callout aimed squarely at Morgan himself.

“Hey, Piers Morgan, I'll put it on the line for you. Come on, buddy. Let's see what you got.”

The exchange landed like classic wrestling trash talk, and it’s the kind of moment that shows how easily Fletcher slips into promo mode, even outside the ring. Celebrity involvement has always been part of wrestling’s biggest spectacles, especially when stadium shows come into play, and Fletcher clearly understands how a matchup with a controversial public figure could ignite crowd reactions.

Even if the idea never leaves the fantasy stage, the soundbite alone gives fans something to talk about. Fletcher’s willingness to throw out a bold name — and do it with humor — adds another layer to his public persona while keeping attention on his rise in the wrestling world.
