Tony Khan is asked about MJF's pipebomb on AEW Dynamite again

Tony Khan has yet again refused to comment on the controversy surrounding MJF's reportedly strained relationship with AEW.

The Salt of the Earth made headlines last week when he didn't show up to a meet and greet session before Double Or Nothing 2022. Despite rumors of him possibly no-showing the pay-per-view too, he did end up appearing, losing a virtual squash match to his former Pinnacle stablemate, Wardlow. On the following episode of AEW Dynamite, MJF delivered a fiery pipebomb. He called Khan a "f****ng mark" and begged to be fired from the company.

Appearing on the latest episode of the podcast, Busted Open Radio, Tony Khan was asked about the promo. The AEW President straight up refused to comment on the issue:

"I can't comment on that part. I would say that it was a great night overall at the Forum, on the aggregate," Tony Khan said (H/T - Fightful)

Khan was even asked about MJF's relationship with All Elite Wrestling during the Double or Nothing 2022 media scrum, where he had also refused to comment.

Vince Russo thinks AEW-MJF drama is a work

Speaking on a recent episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Writing with Russo, the former WWE writer stated that MJF's no-showing AEW Double or Nothing 2022 meet and greet was a "work." He added that The Salt of The Earth wouldn't do something like that because he was a "pro."

Moreover, Vince Russo explained that if the situation wasn't fake, Tony Khan would have apologized to people instead of refusing to comment:

"If MJF no-showed as a shoot, which he wouldn't because he is a pro, Tony Khan would've been out there apologizing to the people, burying MJF, because he wants everybody to like him," said Russo. "The last thing he would be saying is nothing. So when you look at how people are acting, you're like, 'Bro come on, do you not see that through this?' Then, my favorite is, we're gonna give the guy a live mic to mute the live mic, like, come on bro."

Whether the MJF situation is an elaborate storyline or not, it's safe to say the developments over the last week have kept the viewers thoroughly intrigued.
