Live AEW Dynamite Updates, Results, & Reactions

MJF first says he runs the show. After Jungle Boy interrupted his re-bar mitzvah – a “Kanye move,” as he called it – he had the audacity to say MJF got to waltz his way to the top of the card. He actually says he agreed because he barely wrestles

MJF says that despite how hard Jungle Boy has worked, the fans haven’t thanked him, and he hasn’t had a ton of TV time, either. But the only person whose fault that is, according to Friedman, is Jungle Boy himself. He recalled their standout match at Double or Nothing 2020. MJF believed he met his match that night, so he went and shook his hand backstage.

Perry remembered the conversation they had. He remembered being told that nice guys finish last, and if he wanted to be a top guy, he would have had to ditch his friends. Friedman says he did the opposite and stayed with his friends, and since he stayed the good guy, where did it get him? MJF is World Champion, and he’s still just “Jungle Boy.”

Jungle Boy responds by saying he thought they could be friends. In ways, he wishes he could be like MJF with his talking skills, his confidence, and the way he didn’t care about anyone else. He wishes he could be “the most narcissistic piece of s***” in all of AEW. But that isn’t him, and he’ll do it his way. And when he does it his way, Jungle Boy says he won’t wake up every day and hate the man he sees in the mirror.

MJF applauds his promo but says it took him four years to talk. Friedman agrees that they could have been friends at one point, but he turned out to be a disappointment in several ways. When he drops a line about taking Anna Jay to the side and finding out Perry is weak in the knees, Perry goes on the attack, beating Friedman down and stomping him in the corner. A hard lariat sets him up for a running elbow but MJF escapes.
