7 Ups & 2 Downs From AEW Dynamite (18 Jan - Review)

6. MJF Is An *sshole

The eventual Konosuke Takeshita vs. MJF match is going to rule.

A quick, snappy retort following last week's divisive in-ringer came in the form of a backstage interview with Renee Paquette last night. Takeshita loved wrestling his hero, Bryan Danielson, on Dynamite, but addressed MJF in Japanese. Firing up for a few sentences, he was grilled for a translation by Paquette.

"MJF is an *sshole," the former KO-D Openweight Champion said, demonstrating great comic timing.

Soon, Takeshita is going to have to beat one of the big names he is paired up with for great matches every other week. Expect the MJF jabs to continue through that.
