Every Time I Die guitarist Andy Williams wins AEW debut with tag team
Every Time I Die guitarist Andy Williams won his first All Elite Wrestling match on the show that aired on TNT.
Andy “The Butcher” Williams has been in the ring for a few years now. In June 2015, he took on pro-wrestler TARIK, who didn’t stand a chance against the musician. That same week, the guitarist went up against Jimmy Havoc at Download Fest, where he powerbombed the wrestler through a table.

In 2017, Williams became a tag team champion when he and Jesse “Braxton Sutter” Guilmette (aka The Blade) took down the Upper Echelon tag team at the Pro Wrestling Rampage event in Erie, PA.
On Nov. 27, the team blindisided All Elite Wrestling Executive Vice President Cody Rhodes on the wresting company’s AEW Dynamite. They were joined by Laura Dennis (Allie, The Bunny) and met with boos from the crowd.
