The tweet garnered a response from a fan who pointed out that Spears is doing nothing of worth in AEW. He took a shot at Spears and hinted that getting paid to do nothing in WWE didn't work out for him, but he's happy being in the same position in AEW.
Spears responded to the fan, and listed down the reasons why he is happy in his current position.
He stated that he runs a school four times a week, has the freedom to take appearances and bookings whenever he wishes to, and gets plenty of time to spend with his wife and dogs.

Everyone else: “He’s: underwhelming, missing, boring, underrated, overrated, jobber, mid carder....” Me: Happy 😊 How you feel about you, is ALL that matters. https://t.co/qRrlYgtgLZ
Spears' two-year stint on WWE's main roster as Tye Dillinger left a lot to be desired. He requested his WWE release in early 2019, and was granted the same on February 22, 2019.
He made his AEW debut at the promotion's first show, Doube Or Nothing, and participated in the pre-show Casino Battle Royale. Spears went on to feud with Cody Rhodes, and later Joey Janela.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
