Austin Gunn has had enough of metal trash cans following repeated encounters with Claudio Castagnoli on AEW programming.
Taking to social media after Saturday’s Anarchy In The Arena match at AEW Full Gear, Gunn declared that he is officially banning the household item from his daily routine.
Claudio Castagnoli’s Repeated Trash Can Attacks On Austin Gunn
The rivalry between Gunn and Castagnoli has centered around the same steel weapon across multiple recent appearances:
- AEW Dynamite Incident: During a recent episode of Dynamite, Gunn charged at Castagnoli on the entrance ramp, only for Castagnoli to hurl a trash can directly at his head, knocking him flat on his back before catching the rebounding weapon to strike other members of The Cut.
- AEW Full Gear Giant Swing: Making his return to action during the Anarchy In The Arena match at Full Gear, Castagnoli targeted Gunn once again. Castagnoli placed a trash can directly over Gunn’s head and spun him around in a Giant Swing.

Following the physical toll of the pay-per-view brawl, Gunn posted twice on social media to address his ongoing misfortune with the foreign object. In his first message, he vowed to stop using trash cans altogether in his everyday life.
He later followed up with a second post, emphatically rejecting the suggestion that he and the steel trash can have become “wrestling soulmates.”
