The Gunns have big goals when it comes to their careers in the world of professional wrestling, and have their eyes set on becoming one of the greatest tag team duos ever known.
Speaking to Robbie Fox on the My Mom’s Basement podcast, the duo of Austin and Colten Gunn spoke about a litany of topics, including what their respective goals are for the rest of their careers. Colten reflected on the various titles they’ve already won, and said what’s next is just becoming the best.
“I know when I started, my main goal was just to win the tag titles with my brother,” said Colten. “That was number one. We did that really fast, and now we’ve held the Ring of Honor Six-Man Titles, we’ve held the AEW World Trios Titles, we’re the first Unified Trios Champions, so it’s like, ‘Oh, man.’ So I’ve had to recalibrate that. I think it’s just get more reps with Austin and just become the greatest tag team ever. Why not set that as a goal? Yeah, it might be high and it might be hefty, but if you don’t have that goal, then why are we wrestling? Why are we trying to be a tag team? So I think that’s the new goal for me.”
Austin Gunn agrees
Austin added that his goal is more or less the same, and said he’s enjoyed the ride he and his brother have been on. For him, now it’s just about continuing to get better and growing not only their respect, but their legacy.
“I think that’s the same similar goal that I have. That’s cool to have the same goal as your tag partner, so we’re not going on different paths,” Austin said. “I’ve enjoyed the ride, and we were having fun and trying to find our groove, but now that we’ve found it, now that we’ve won tag team gold and trios unified gold, I think it’s just about now how can we be the best? Now that we have our groove and we have our faction and stuff, it’s like we’re gonna be the best, so now put some respect on our name for being able to do what we’ve done in such a short amount of time, so now it’s about proving everybody wrong.”
