Fabian Aichner Speaks About Ludwig Kaiser’s Success In AAA As El Grande Americano: “Hard Work Pays Off”

Aichner speaks highly of his former partner.

The newest signee to TNA Wrestling is Fabian Aichner, who spent nearly a decade with WWE under his current name and as Giovanni Vinci.

Aichner was interviewed by WhatCulture Wrestling and was asked about the success of his former factionmate in Imperium, Ludwig Kaiser’s success in AAA as El Grande Americano.

“There’s a bunch of those El Grande Americanos I’ve noticed so we don’t really know who’s who but, let’s just assume one of them was him,” Aichner said with a smile while speaking about Ludwig Kaiser. “No, kudos to him. We came up in NXT together. We were the only two German-speaking people there so we did everything together. I know the hardships he went through because we went through it together in NXT and I know all the sacrifices that went into that journey because you have to remember, you’re moving halfway around the world. You’re leaving everything that you’ve known up until that point, including family. You leave everything behind in order to achieve that goal, to achieve that dream, to get to the main stage and to realize the dream that you worked so hard for. He’s always had a great mindset for wrestling, he’s always known what was important and if you look at the reactions that he’s getting now in Mexico, you don’t get those kinds of reactions if you’re not doing something right so, it’s good to see that he’s doing great. I’m happy for him, and yeah, pays off. Hard work pays off.”

Kaiser headlined week one of AAA Noches de Los Grandes and emerged victorious from a Mask versus Mask match against Original El Grande Americano (Chad Gable).
