This is exactly why billionaires can’t exist. This man is burning the entire world down because he cannot accept his daughter for who she is. And he has the money to actually do it. No one can have that power.
LA Knight says he and AJ Styles "got a phone call" after their unplanned brawl whilst doing media ahead of their match at WWE WrestleMania 40:
“I walked into the room and I’m shooting him looks, and he might have said some stuff. He’s doing his interview, I was talking to somebody else. So, whoever I was talking to, while I was doing that, AJ is over here behind me. I’d given looks, and he’d referenced me, and I’d looked over there, and stuff. But at some point AJ tossed a stool in my direction, and at that point all I’m thinking is again the depth of the story we had told up to now. I’m like, there’s no way I wouldn’t react if he throws his stool at me. What am I going to do? I’m going to fight him.
"So I go over and just start fighting him, and I’m thinking surely security is going to come and break this up real quick, and it just went on and on. We’re down there work-shooting, and he’s knocking me away, because we got to make it look good now, because we’re like in the people. I’m like, where the f*ck is security? What is taking so long?
"Then finally, like, because we’re both blown up at this point. But yeah, it was just literally going off the cuff. How do I not serve the story that we’ve told this whole time, even to where he’s serving it now, just by throwing the stool.
"Obviously, I’m sure he wasn’t intending to get to where it got to, but in my head, I’m like, I have gone to his house to fight him. He throws a stool at me from five feet away. What am I going to do? Just shrug it off? No.
"So I went over there, thinking security is going to take care of it. They didn’t. I mean they did finally, but yeah, it took a minute, and so I hit that, he slammed the sh*t out of me, and he ended up with a bloody nose, so after that we both got a phone call, though, like, what are you guys doing, you can’t do that, and it was like, hey, I’m trying to keep it alive, I’m trying.”

AEW has officially launched shirt/bracelet merchandise for Rebel. ❤️
With 100% of profits going to ALS research and treatment. An extremely great cause.
TNA has moved virtually no tickets for Slammiversary and now they can’t even rely on their “partners” in WWE to lend them any talent for the show in hopes to do so. WWE also made sure that TNA’s second biggest show of the year is the last thing on the mind of wrestling fans June 28th
Being a minor inconvience to AEW is more important to WWE than helping out TNA😭✌🏿
What a horrid professional outfit all this is. Signing a guy to a contract with Tommy Dreamer bored and stupid looking next to you. What does he add to this? What does he add to anything?
This is what I meant when I said AEW reclaimed New York.
In 2021, there very much was a “Fuck the Fed” vibe in the audience, and not only did that dissipate over the next three years, the crowds in Queens and Newark got colder, and sparser. I was on escalators with fans at the 2023 Newark Collision going “L-A KNIGHT, YEAH”. Fans chanting “MAMI” at Bud Matt. Offhanded conversations from fans around me asking who the wrestlers in the ring were and talking about what was going on in WWE. WWE won back the hardcores and New York was theirs again. People were just going to AEW shows here because they happened to be here. When AEW ran Chicago after Survivor Series 2023 the looked so small time and like the uncool brand.
Conversely, as I’m getting out the 7 train today, the first thing I hear is a little boy explaining to (his dad?) why AEW was better than WWE, in stadium boos for a mention of the Rock, multiple Fuck TKO chants on stairs, escalators, and crowd that was excited to watch wrestling.
Noted vibe shift today, felt like the result of everything that’s happened over the last year. Potential 97/98 big 2 situation going on at least from a vibes standpoint. I’m just calling what I’m seeing.
MJF comments on some fans being preconditioned to believe a hair stipulation is comedic:
“You can thank Vince McMahon for that. It wasn’t comedy in Memphis. It wasn’t comedy in World Class. It wasn’t comedy in Mexico.”
