Former WCW star The Disco Inferno claims AEW World Champion MJF was correct in his recent Dynamite promo, which mentioned Disco, Jim Cornette, and WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff.
MJF insulted Bryan Danielson earlier this month on AEW Dynamite, saying that while he listens to Disco, Bischoff, and the “smartest man of them all,” Cornette, Danielson listens to people like wrestling journalists and fans. On a recent episode of the podcast “Keeping It 100 with Disco and Konnan,” Disco addressed the remark.
“He’s absolutely right there,” Disco said of MJF’s promo. “All the dirt sheet guys and marks think that Bryan Danielson is the best and guys like me and Eric Bischoff think that MJF is the best, so there was no lie. I would like to see what the minute-by-minute rating was when my name was mentioned. I’m pretty sure the ratings went up after that. What if that did happen? What if we did the minute-by-minutes break down? I’m over enough for MJF to bring me up. If I’m not over, the AEW Champion is not going to mention my name. Why would he give me a rub? I gave him the rub.”
Disco also discussed how the internet was unable to spoil Charlotte Flair’s surprise return match earlier this month, in which she captured the SmackDown Women’s Title from Ronda Rousey.
“Bro, all of the dirt sheet guys get heat because if they ever don’t get something right, they don’t mention it,” he said. “Yeah, that’s good because I would not have liked to been spoiled from a good moment on TV that I was completely surprised at, which is like what I like as a fan. You know, I don’t want the weekly spoilers. Isn’t it kind of fascinating that they kept that under wraps, that spot? Because nobody reported that, like nobody saw that coming, that was very interesting to me that like in this day and age, with all the dirt sheet guys and all the wrestlers that have the dirt sheet guys on speed dial to spoil stuff, I was surprised that didn’t happened. You don’t see that a lot of these days.”
