Speaking to Sean Ross Sapp and Jimmy Van on The List & Ya Boy, Alexander put over the working relationship between AEW and IMPACT and said he was potentially penciled in to go to AEW but Christian was hurt and written off of television.

"I thought it was cool. I was a huge fan of Kenny. Anybody who is a pro wrestler should be a huge fan of (Kenny)," said Alexander. "What he's able to do in a ring can only highlight us by having matches with him and competing, even though we weren't winning or anything like that [laughs]. The relationship, I thought it was good for what it was. I thought we could have gone over there to highlight some of our guys, but that never materialized, which was disappointing. There was talk of me going pre-Bound for Glory and just being in the audience like, 'this is the guy challenging Christian at Bound For Glory,' but I think Christian hurt his shoulder and was written off TV around that time."

Now, Josh Alexander has signed a multi-year deal with IMPACT. He elaborated more on that on The List & Ya Boy. Read more here.
