While speaking on Keepin' It 100 Official, Inferno praised Jay's mic and wrestling skills. The latter also questioned the company for keeping him on the bench.

"Poor Jay Lethal... He brings so much to the table here. He's a good promo, he's a good hand... He did excellent then, you know. That showed his range. I thought they were bringing him in after that. That's when he started with AEW. Flair's thing and everything. And you thought like, 'Wow, they value this guy like we do, like we know this guy for we've known him for 20-something years. He could do everything, right?' And then they are like, 'Bring him and don't bother to use him,'" said Inferno. (11:43 - 12:30)

The only difference is that Ryan Nemeth has talent,” said Schiavone.
