Speaking to the New York Post, Chris Jericho talks about finally getting the chance to do Blood & Guts: "It's one of those things we've kind of had in our back pocket for a while, because I'm a big believer in you don't do an angle because of a match, you do a match because of an angle. We had it built up perfectly last year before the pandemic locked us down. We didn't want to rush the match because once the time passed, then we were locked down and then we came up with the Stadium Stampede, so what do you do to finally put this match on and that's when we started this giant feud with MJF and Jericho and The Pinnacle and The Inner Circle that we basically started in September. With sort of the blood feud that came out of it, we thought it would be the perfect time to do Blood and Guts, 14, 15 months later because the story demands it."

In this interview FTR's Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood say they owe everything to wrestling. Cash: "I feel like we owe wrestling so much. We had nothing growing up. I can tell you now that if it wasn't for wrestling - I come from a family of addicts and I would have went that path. It was the easiest path and the one that I knew other than wrestling. If I didn't have something to hold onto and grasp at to lead me in a different direction I would be... not good. I know that for a fact, because one of my best friends is not here with us anymore because of something like that. I was going in that same direction. Without wrestling, who knows? I wanna leave it better than I found it because I owe it everything." Dax: "We left WWE together because of our legacy and we started in AEW because of our legacy, and that's a very important thing to us. But our job is also to make sure that when we're done and we hang it up, everybody that we worked with is better than we were before. This might get me a little heat, but Cash can tell ya I don't give a damn about heat. We're not gonna be the guys at 45, 50 years old and 50 plus who think that we need to go out there and still have 30-minute matches and beat everybody. That's not us. We want to give back."

Here AEW star Jake Hager says he'd like to have another Bellator MMA fight: "Right now, Bellator has been great, and understand what a big storyline I'm involved with in AEW and they've always been great working with me to have my wrestling career prosper. They know that if I'm a bigger star then they're a bigger star. I'm very interested in getting back in the cage. Of course, I never stopped training and I think they're going to be having another Bellator Heavyweight Grand Prix. Maybe I can toss my name in the hat for that. Since I never stopped training, I'm perfect for Blood & Guts right now. Have any of those guys been locked in a cage with another professional? Nah."

Here Braun Strowman talks about working with Shane McMahon at WrestleMania 37: "Let's be real here. I'm a ground-based athlete, so that was unreal. You have to give mad credit to Shane. I could hear the crowd come alive when we were on top of the cage. Shane literally gave his body to me, trusting his life in my hands, and that rumble from the crowd gave me goosebumps. It was an honor to go out there with him. Ripping through the cage, that was an important moment. We're here to show something that's never been before. That's where you become a legend in this business, so I hope those moments live on. I was very happy with what we did, and I'll remember those reactions from the crowd for a long time."
