Melissa Santos took to Twitter to vent about the way her husband Brian Cage is being utilized in AEW.
Santos said, βBrian Cage is a superstar. Those people who know him from the indies, Impact, Lucha Underground where I met him know that he is a superstar. All you have to do is google him and watch all of his matches. Heβs a superstar and heβs being misused right now.β
Cage was signed by AEW last year but he has been primarily working on Dark shows. Last week, he lost to Powerhouse Hobbs on AEW Dynamite.
AEW has a lot of momentum right now because of the recent hires that are adding to their stacked roster but some critics say that there is too much talent and not enough time to showcase everyone. It appears that Santos feels that her husband is one of those names that should be featured more in a meaningful way.
Cage appears to agree with his wife as he recently tweeted a screenshot from an article that says that Cage has gotten lost in the shuffle in AEW.
Listen to what Santos said about Cage in the video clip below.

Cage should be on top man. Dude looks like a million billion bucks. Maybe have him go at Miro for some slobbetknockers. Best thing is for him to get a win vs Team Taz and keep it moving

Hasn’t clicked with the audience? I was in Chicago last week for Dynamite and the crowd was 99% on Cage’s side.
Terminator claps, GTMSI chants, big pop, almost everyone was on @MrGMSI_BCage side. Fans love him!

I’m pointing out the crowd reaction from my first ever AEW show I’ve attended in person.
I’ve seen Brian wrestle live in Lucha Underground, Impact, Independent shows and now AEW β¦ not once have I been in the stands where the fans have been indifferent to him.
