Max Caster blames AEW veteran Billy Gunn for The Acclaimed's breakup

The Acclaimed was arguably one of the best tag teams in AEW for a while. The group's members held the AEW World Tag Team as well as World Trios championships. However, after suffering some major setbacks, the team disbanded a couple of months ago.

Following the group's breakup, Max Caster had some interesting things to say. He called Anthony Bowens his best friend but criticized him for listening to Billy Gunn. He even called the veteran a bad influence.

"Anthony Bowens is my best friend for life, and I know he's hard-headed, but ever since he started listening to Billy Gunn, he's been a real stubborn guy, and I have been, too. Billy is a bad influence, has been since the '90s, but you know (...) I just told it like it was, and as the captain and the leader of The Acclaimed, sometimes the captain's gotta go down with the ship, and I was going down with the ship," Max Caster said.

Fans will have to wait and see what the future holds for Max Caster as a singles star in All Elite Wrestling.
