New Level (Kofi And Austin Creed) Reflect On AEW All In Debut; Kofi Feels They Made The Right Decision Coming To AEW

The New Level talks about their All Elite Wrestling debut.

At AEW All In, New Level made their AEW debut during the Trios Roulette Royale match for the Trios Titles. Teaming up with Swerve Strickland on the show, they became new champions on their first night in the company.

During the post-show media scrum for AEW All In, The New Level talked about how it felt to come to All Elite Wrestling.

Kofi: “It feels amazing. It is completely surreal, and I’ve been saying this all day, it feels like a dream. This crazy dream where all these people that I’ve seen from a different world from afar, and now I get to see them up close. We’re shaking hands. It’s all smiles. I see people from our past lives. Seeing Renee up here. This is crazy. With Swerve… There’s a picture going around online right now. The last time we were seen on screen together was in 2021. Now, here we are five years later. Who would have thought that this would be possible like this man? It’s crazy. The feeling is surreal to say the least.”

Austin Creed: “To echo Kofi’s sentiments, exactly. They’re a completely different universe. There’s different ways of existing, and everybody is just so welcoming. It’s the same thing as going to a new school. You’re the kid like, ‘Oh, I don’t know if I’m gonna make friends.’ We walk in and everybody’s with open arms and so happy we’re here. It feels like we did something right for our careers. We just tried our best to be good to everybody, try to be nice and helpful. To see that come back in this moment, it feels amazing.”

Later, Kofi talked about the moment fans started chanting for tag team wrestling when they were confronted by several tag teams after their Trios Title victory.

“That is a big part of the reason why we wanted to come here. We’ve been watching from afar, and I told Tony [Khan] this when we were talking on our video chat. This tag team division is one of, if not the greatest of all time in the history of the business. I mean that. We consider ourselves to be the best, so we want to mix it up with all the tag teams. For us to be in there and to have y’all recognize that, it feels like we made the right decision.”
