Former WWE star Enzo Amore, who now calls himself Real1, says he'd "brutalise" current AEW World Champion MJF in a promo battle.

Enzo told Busted Open Radio that any pro wrestling fans questioning his words shouldn't "compare apples to oranges". In an astonishing rant clearly designed to grab some headlines (which worked), Amore also said "it's easy to be a heel" and rant on the mic.

However, he reckons it's a different thing entirely to become a beloved babyface who rallies fan support in his corner using nothing but words. According to Real1, MJF has to prove he can do that before he's considered a "generational talent".

Strong words.

Enzo clearly used Busted Open's platform to put himself in the shop window for AEW - he repeatedly wondered aloud what it'd be like if he stormed All Elite TV to get in MJF's face, and even added that "people know where to call [him]" if they fancy talking business.

On comparisons between himself and Friedman, Amore said: "Get the f*ck out of here". That's when he fired out the "apples and oranges" line on the show.
