Will Paul Walter Hauser vs. QT Marshall be confirmed?
It seems that AEW is finally moving forward with the QT Marshall/Paul Water Hauser ROH match. This feud has been developing for several months now. In fact, it seemed that these two would square off back in April/May when the 38-year-old called out Marshall on an episode of Ring of Honor. The match never came to fruition though.
But seems to be changing soon as the MLW star made his appearance on the No-Contest Wrestling podcast and discussed his issues with QT Marshall.
“ I had a run-in with this guy. Do you know QT Marshall? [Yeah, I’m aware.] Most people have no idea. But dude is a great wrestler, also cut his teeth in ROH and is there now,” Hauser said. “Yeah. And he came up and was like, they were like, ‘Hey, QT is going to do a bit and come up and, you know, give you some, give you some s**t or whatever.’ I’m used to this like, ‘Oh, let’s do the segment. Let’s do the segment,’ and he threw a drink in my face.
“And mind you, once again, I’m willing to play ball. Like, it’s fun. I had a guitar broken over my head, like a Jeff Jarrett guitar. I’m cool with a throwing drink in my face, it’s part of the show. But I smelled it about 10-12 seconds in. You can see it if you find the clip, you can see something turn or shift and like, now I’m not that good of an actor. Like, you can tell something’s wrong. I knew it was alcohol, and I’m over three years sober. I’m celebrating my four years of sobriety this autumn, assuming I make it one day at a time.”
Hasuer feels that Marshall did on purpose to mess with him. That wasn’t cool in the actor’s eyes and now he wants to beat Marshall’s ass.
“So I’ve been wrestling with MLW primarily. That’s my home right now, but I got a lot of love and a lot of friends in that company (AEW). So, you know, I’m hoping me and QT get to do the… I guess I can, I’ll say it on here because manifesting is like, if… absolutely. If anybody’s watching, Lord knows I’ve already texted Tony about it. I want a match with QT Marshall.
“So dude, you’re not that busy in ROH, other than like, you know, interfering in Aaron Solo’s matches or whatever dude you’ve convinced to be your ROH disciple. Come mess with me, dude. Find out how much of an actor I am. Find out if I’m still acting when you’re bleeding all over the ROH canvas, bro. And QT Marshall, you’re a b**ch. But you know what? You’re good at being a b**ch, so keep at it. Aspire to more b**chness.”
Will the match finally take place? Well, since this was posted on ROH’s Twitter feed then the likelihood is pretty high. ROH does have a pay-per-view coming up, so it’s likely that QT Marshall and Paul Walter Hauser will have their bout at Death Before Dishonor. That’s just speculation on my end. Should these two end up having a match then it’ll be Hauser’s first match in ROH. He’s been primarily competing in MLW and Progress Wrestling, though these days, his focus has been promoting the latest Fantastic Four movie.
