Max Caster, known for his electrifying raps with AEW’s The Acclaimed, recently discussed referencing WWE in his lyrics. In “Insight with Chris Van Vliet,” Caster revealed the pros and cons of this strategy.
While taking shots at WWE can be entertaining, it can also backfire. Caster explained that it can actually draw attention to WWE’s shows instead of AEW. He now tries to avoid such references altogether.

Caster also shared his approach to mentioning specific WWE figures. He believes referencing Vince McMahon, particularly during times of controversy, gets a bigger reaction than simply mentioning WWE programming.
Finally, Caster discussed his opposition to former WWE wrestler Shelton Benjamin potentially joining AEW. He recently expressed this view on social media.
Whether Caster’s comments will influence Benjamin’s decision remains to be seen, but it certainly adds another layer of intrigue to the situation.
However, with AEW continuing to grow in popularity and establish its own unique identity, Caster’s focus on strategic jabs and promoting AEW’s talent seems to be a winning formula.
Fans can expect The Acclaimed to keep the energy high and the rhymes flowing as they continue to climb the ranks in the ever-evolving world of professional wrestling.
