Brian said it best, "There's a real disconnect between fans in the bubble and fans in reality." AEW, Tony, his wrestlers, and their fans have all created this bubble that they live in and they don't want to admit that anything is wrong.
Honestly, the IWC have become unbearable in the last couple of years and most definitely since the inception of AEW. Most will ignore the fact that AEW has pulled some of the same garbage (if not more so) that the WWE has pulled simply because their favorite wrestlers are on there doing their thing. Add in some of the latest injuries and its a fair assessment to make that their management doesn't keep a tight leash on what should and should not be done but that won't stop these fools from constantly crapping all over the WWE even though they currently have the best storyline going right now that hasn't been seen in years. And I ask all you AEW marks, what storyline does the company have that pulls people in besides the superkick acrobats vs masochistic brain damaged crew? That's right, none.

Corny is right. These scrums exist because it's part of Khan's wrasslin' role play fantasy. The dude collects indie wrasslers like action figures and this is how he plays with them.

MJF came in under Cody who's storylines never crossed with the Elite. Also he never mentions his Jericho feud and I think has at least once mentioned being held down with that feud for a year. So I think he's made clear he doesn't wanna work with them.
"If there is a matchup that should have happened but hasn't happened it's because of that. Done." I think he is referring to the EVPs etc. No Adam Page etc. No Plumber Moxley best of 3.

LMFAO These Media Scrums are amazing especially that iconic All Out Media scrum with Punk and the muffin everyone blew that shit way out of proportion.
I love Punk, he just destroyed the illusion of AEW being a perfect place with zero flaws. For Empty head Hangnail and The Buckaroos starting beef with Punk by accusing him of getting rid of Colt Cabana, they did all this for a pointless useless jobber like Cabana to get back at Punk. I'm sure, They'd probably do worst to Punk for Brandon Cutlet since he's their childhood buddy.

Seeing Tony's reactions and his head nearly explode when MJF continues to mention WWE and jumping ship is priceless. Even MJF knows they live rent-free in Tony's coked-out head.

Since MJF kayfabed it and Danielson half-heartedly did as well.
Is MJF the son of the Moyle from Seinfeld?! Think about it 🤔. I don't think MJF is as great as a lot of folks in the IWC do, but he's damn good and he is a pro wrestler. I think he gets that very well. And he's only 27?!! Greatness is certainly attainable.
The constant cursing from MJF is a bit too much. It's low hanging fruit as its widely not accepted in pro wrestling. I think he's shooting himself in the foot on that aspect. If he ever goes to the big leagues in the WWE, he loses that instantly. It might even be a reason he never does get there. I hope he figures that out as he is great entertainment otherwise.
The constant cursing reminds me of Shane Douglas in ECW...you're absolutely right I think the cursing will be frowned upon by WWE but where MJF differs from a guy like Shane Douglas is that I think he could lose the free range of cursing in his promos and it would not hurt him a bit because he's THAT talented.
idk it would depend on what you were kind of job your are doing and what kind of person you are. Not everyone wants to come to work and just find a place to lay down and sleep.
I would love to have a boss who I could browbeat and fuck around whenever I felt like it. Especially when coming to work is optional it's a fuckin dream job.
Having a boss like Tony Khan is equal to having Eric Bischoff as a boss in WCW, 3 years of a free-for-all circus and crazy money, but then Warner pulls the plug and you're out of a job as a whole.
Yet MJF praises him and calling you an idiot mark.... so who is really the loser here? The succesful podcaster or you the guy on YT? Spoiler alert - its you
"If there is a matchup that should have happened but hasn't happened it's because of that. Done." I think he is referring to the EVPs etc. No Adam Page etc. No Plumber Moxley best of 3.
Imagine Corny and Brian bein allowed in one of these media scrums? First they would need security. Two, other interviewers would try to keep interrupting them cause they are in Tonys Pockets and then the wrestlers or Tony would just say no comment to ant question and then eventually Jim would just start cutting everyone a part with his mouth and it would turn into a fight lol.
Thing with MJF, is I wonder if he can actually cut a good promo without swearing all the time, and I wonder how good he'd be with a scripted promo? Would he be able to pull off a scripted promo and make it sound at least half non scripted like some are able to do in WWE? Bc we all know in WWE, he's not gonna be allowed to do any of the stuff he's used to doing in AEW.

Kudos to MJF for being able to breathe the same air as all those spineless hack reporters with zero grasp on self-respect.
The cross eye jab was the highlight for me, but mjf is constant highlights so I cant be choosy. Mjf roasts are amazing.
🆚🐐🧑💼🐐🐐
He said “mid blood” 😂😂😂😂
I think the high spot comment was towards Dante Martin or wrestlers of his type.
Is MJF the son of the Moyle from Seinfeld?! Think about it 🤔. I don't think MJF is as great as a lot of folks in the IWC do, but he's damn good and he is a pro wrestler. I think he gets that very well. And he's only 27?!! Greatness is certainly attainable.
The shmo is a real interviewer he does a lot with the UFC
Bryan Alvarez fears Brian Last
That WrestleJoy is a joke they only started watching wrestling when AEW started. They never knew who Jericho was or even Mox and Saraya
The constant cursing from MJF is a bit too much. It's low hanging fruit as its widely not accepted in pro wrestling. I think he's shooting himself in the foot on that aspect. If he ever goes to the big leagues in the WWE, he loses that instantly. It might even be a reason he never does get there. I hope he figures that out as he is great entertainment otherwise.
It’s all he has. 3 years in and he’s still doing the same tryhard edgelord gimmick
The constant cursing reminds me of Shane Douglas in ECW...you're absolutely right I think the cursing will be frowned upon by WWE but where MJF differs from a guy like Shane Douglas is that I think he could lose the free range of cursing in his promos and it would not hurt him a bit because he's THAT talented.
THANKS GUYS
Even 1996 steve austin wasn't F this F that. If he had done that i would've hated his character then.
AEW would probably have higher viewership if the waited and let the wrestlers speak at the next tv episode rather than immediately after
What? Why would he want more viewers? That would piss off the core audience...
Facts. That's how it was done back in the day. These should be next week's promos
Swearing too much makes it non effective
Seriously. It shows how limited his gimmick is. He has no finesse
Wow MJF is so damn good
No shit. Even my cynical little heart wants to see someone hospitalize him in the ring.
Does anyone here a count of how many times MJF has said fuck? Because in this segment alone I heard that word so much I started to fall asleep.
He relies on that alot in his promos that it's gotten so repetitive and boring.
@@RobHiguera-hx6fd so I am not the only one
This was great! Lol . MJF is the man!
MJF press conferences are the only things that make me want to watch modern wrestling
16:40 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Absolute brilliance.
Anyone else notice how MJF kept emphasising best 'singles' Dog Collar match of all time.
A mark of respect to the Briscoes and FTR
Tony’s the boss we all dream of.
And Media Scrum is Tony's fantasy of beeing the boss he dreams of to be.
@@kamilj1521 eeeexxxxxactly
idk it would depend on what you were kind of job your are doing and what kind of person you are. Not everyone wants to come to work and just find a place to lay down and sleep.
I would love to have a boss who I could browbeat and fuck around whenever I felt like it. Especially when coming to work is optional it's a fuckin dream job.
Having a boss like Tony Khan is equal to having Eric Bischoff as a boss in WCW, 3 years of a free-for-all circus and crazy money, but then Warner pulls the plug and you're out of a job as a whole.
When MJF said "i get paid by a winners m'fing purse" he sounded like Al Snow.
The constant F bombs are cringe
No
He has more go away heat than actual heel heat
@@michaelhauser6440who??
Tbh the constant f bombs are just his long island way of speaking. I myself speak the same way its just normal.
And yet you listen to Cornette's pod lol
MJF is Masterful at these scrums.
I think MJF has outgrown AEW
MJF definitely listens to Jim's podcast. I think he even shouted him out during a promo one time to get heat lol.
He dropped Thank You Fuck You Bye on Demented Dave Dipshit and Anorexic Alvarez
WWE does press conferences as well lmao. Sooo its not just Tony.
It doesn't come off as markish as AEW's media scrums though lol
At least Triple H doesn't go there to jerk himself off. He just talks analytics and a way forward for the company.
I wish Jim learned of some of the insane overanalyzed nonsense that Sidgwick spouts. He'd have a field day
The resident ghoul of Whatculture 😂😂
Yet MJF praises him and calling you an idiot mark.... so who is really the loser here? The succesful podcaster or you the guy on YT? Spoiler alert - its you
The reason why it didn't go on last because I think 100% of the audience knew he was not losing his title.. 😂 but wow great answer
Wish you would have also played the clip where he called New Japan an indie fed 🤣🤣🤣
"If there is a matchup that should have happened but hasn't happened it's because of that. Done."
I think he is referring to the EVPs etc. No Adam Page etc. No Plumber Moxley best of 3.
I haven't watched for that long. Has MJF never had matches with the evps or hangman?
Imagine Corny and Brian bein allowed in one of these media scrums? First they would need security. Two, other interviewers would try to keep interrupting them cause they are in Tonys Pockets and then the wrestlers or Tony would just say no comment to ant question and then eventually Jim would just start cutting everyone a part with his mouth and it would turn into a fight lol.
Derp
I would pay 2 c that lbs
If SOME 😂(not all)of these guys were paid by Talent they have to give most of the money back!😂😂😂😂😂
Thing with MJF, is I wonder if he can actually cut a good promo without swearing all the time, and I wonder how good he'd be with a scripted promo? Would he be able to pull off a scripted promo and make it sound at least half non scripted like some are able to do in WWE? Bc we all know in WWE, he's not gonna be allowed to do any of the stuff he's used to doing in AEW.
Mjf's American psycho gimmick is fuckin gold
1:02 "We started out hot and ended... Oh no."🤣🤣🤣
Honestly i dont get MJF. Hes great as a wrestler but his gimmick is so cringey to me. Just because hes better than Moxley doesnt mean hes good.
"Why would I want to roll around in Jon Moxley's blood?" QFT and quote of the year?
mjf getting heat on a mark makes him a babyface for me.
The snowman ⛄️🤣😂 lmao
Johnny Sameface needs to watch this press conference and watch Tony and his reactions for some tips.
MJF was phenomenal in this, speaking nothing but facts. Marks still gonna be salty tho 🤣
