Speedball Mike Bailey: It’s Do Or Die In The AEW Continental Classic, Time To Lock In

Speedball Mike Bailey comments on his latest match in the AEW Continental Classic and previews his upcoming match with Kazuchika Okada.

On the December 20th edition of AEW Collision, Speedball would continue his Gold League campaign with a bout with Jungle Jack Perry in which Perry would walk away with the victory, leaving Speedball on 6 points in the tournament.

While speaking in a digital exclusive following Sautrday’s AEW Collision, Speedball Mike Bailey spoke how it was now ‘do or die’ for him in the tournament.

“I don’t know what to say. So incredibly disappointed right now. I made a promise to myself. I made a promise to Kevin (Knight) that we would meet in the finals, that I would win all these matches and tonight. Couldn’t get it done. As a result, it’s do or die in the Gold League. It’s anyone’s ballgame. I got one more shot to make this right, and I have to beat Okada, and I have to make it clear that I am the one who is meant to win the Continental Classic. It’s do or die. It’s do or die. Time to lock in.”

"It's do or die in the Gold League! It's anyone's ballgame. I've got one more shot!"
