Knight later expressed support for Bailey's search for gold. Bailey made it clear that his next goal would be the AEW World Championship. Darby Allin, the current title holder, defended it against Konosuke Takeshita as he prepares for a title fight against Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF).
In a recent interview with Fox News Digital, Knight gushed about his teammate.
“Man, 'Speedball' Mike Bailey is a savant, a wrestling savant. He's been wrestling for almost longer than I've been alive,” Knight said. “He's been in every situation you can imagine. He's wrestled thousands of times. He watches wrestling all the time. He talks about wrestling all the time. He knows how to put everyone in the right place to get the best reaction from the crowd.

“So the fact that I have someone like that on my side… and he kicks extremely hard. So, I think he's extremely smart and I don't have to feel those kicks, it's a great combination for me. So I have no complaints.”
Knight shared some of the wisdom Bailey has imparted to him over the years.
“The most important thing is not to think about it too much. Don't think about it too much and do what you do,” Knight said. “As simple as it may seem, that's literally the advice he gives you. And you just take it and say, 'Okay, don't overthink it and do what you do.' And you just go out and do what you do and you come back and everyone's happy and you get ready for the next one.”
Both men have crushed it since joining AEW.

The two have been two-thirds of the AEW Trios Championship on two occasions. They won the belts with “Hangman” Adam Page and then again with legendary Lucha Libre competitor Místico.
