Freddie Prinze Jr. expects to see a new TNT Champion crowned at AEW Full Gear. Jack Perry will defend his title against Daniel Garcia on Saturday’s show, and Prinze spoke on his Wrestling With Freddie podcast about why he thinks Garcia is an “easy pick” to get the win.
“This is not the easiest pick of the night, but an easy pick,” Prinze said (per Wrestling Inc). “It’s Daniel Garcia’s time … It’s now Daniel Garcia’s time. He’s not going to get beat down. He’s going to win this match, and he’s going to be your new TNT [Champion].”
Prinze continued, “He’s going to have his first title in AEW. He’s going to be the TNT Champion, and he can be a babyface that gets beat up a lot and comes back at the end to win by all these guys that are coming to kill him. Whereas Jack Perry, I don’t think can do that same thing because he’s a bad guy, so he has to wrestle evil. We don’t want to see him get beat down to come back up. We just want to see him get beat down, so I’ve got Daniel Garcia.”
AEW Full Gear takes place on Saturday and airs live on PPV. Garcia is currently the betting favorite to beat Perry per BetOnline.
