Find Out Why the World is Talking about MJF & William Regal | AEW Dynamite: Title Tuesday, 10/18/22

[@kyletoledo1095]

When you have a promo/segment that's 15 minutes long without a physical altercation but pure tension, suspense, and great storytelling... You are delivering the best professional wrestling has to offer. Beautifully done by both MJF and William Regal. MJF is a generational talent.

[@jvinson]

The best part of it was that you got so emotionally invested that it didn't FEEL like 15 minutes.

[@tjabad9140]

MJF was thoroughly great at this but when Regal said “You’ve had it easy, sunshine” it stopped MJF’s momentum and had the crowd in his side again. That was a perfectly delivered line. It gave me chills

[@RedShadowOfSaturn]

It sorta did, you're right...but that's part of the reason it was a great segment. It had layers, it told a story (albeit long), and it had the fans changing their views. It wasn't so much a promo "battle," like we knew MJF and Punk would be...like, we all anticipated that would be a series of salvos back and forth, and that's what we got. This was much deeper, more emotional, more serious, and it took us on a journey. It was exceptional.

[@BossofBosses111]

That was UNREAL. I didn't think there was any way he could come back from what MJF was saying but he did!

[@UnrealEntGaming]

MJF's message couldn't resonate any more. His words couldn't be more true. You felt that. I felt that. There's no doubt, this is one of the best segments in professional wresting in a long time.

[@devpaloma]

Agreed entirely. That emotional aspect, the intensity, it's truly poetic. Some of the best segment work in wrestling in so long.

[@Mastersofinsight]

This was the best MJF promo I’ve ever heard. This is so believable cause it’s based on real life events. Like last week, we are getting more layers of MJF and what made him how he is today. His “bad guy story” is unfolding between our eyes and we are understanding why he is the way he is.

[@rooky3526]

@@kibrisgazetesi6586 MJF's dynamic to CM Punk was that of a fan to his hero/idol who he hates due to some narrative where Punk turned his back on him. With Regal, it's that of a youg aspiring wrestler to a well respected senior/legend, seeking for his approval.

Regal has some of the better promos in the game. Underrated. Regal on HHH, Regal on Cesaro, Regal on Dean Ambrose. Legendary stuff. I still remember the feud he had with the then Ambrose when he described the man as someone that: if I took a man into the parking lot and lit him on fire, everyone would flee but Dean Ambrose would come warm his hands by the flames. I mean, what a freakin' line. What a way to put a guy over. Geez.

[@mickpaine2054]

This is one of if not among my favorite segments AEW has ever given us. It made me believe in MJF and his rise to stardom. He's so natural in his delivery and his character work is some of the best in all of wrestling right now.

[@CodeBleu724]

It's about time that MJF's story is being told. When AEW started, MJF was an asshole just to be an asshole. AEW needed heels and faces in 2019...MJF is a Goddamn superstar and he's one of the only ones so far that AEW has produced...and that makes CM Punk jealous.... He wanted to step in to a new company and be the top guy...7 years too late.

[@Doc_Jello]

@@CodeBleu724 Punk elevated MJF, because of Punk, MJF was apart of the most anticipated AEW match ever. Because of Punk, MJF was one half of the best feud in AEW history. MJF needed that Punk feud to become the star he is now, it brought more eyes on him than ever before. MJF has always had the talent but Punk gave him the platform to showcase it. Plus Punk would've dropped the title to MJF

I don’t like to prebook matches but at the end of the day it is a scripted show. Imagine the BCC slowly falls apart leading up to full gear and Regal hands Mjf the brass knuckles for him to get the win. This would be 7 years in the making. The person who drove MJF to get to where he is mentally and physically by pushing him to his full potential and finally MJF becomes the ultimate Villian and the ultimate protege of sir Regal. I feel like tony is gonna do this so I’m sry for the spoiler but that would be the perfect ending. Remember the quote- “ the greatest thing the devil ever pulled was convincing you he did not exist”. False sense of security for Jon Moxley thinking it would be a clean match. This would be perfect cause we don’t want moxley to loose clean to mjf so it’s perfect and realistically makes so much sense.

Regal just showed you how underated he is and better he is

[@Xenosthewatcher]

This is without a doubt one of the best promo's I've ever seen. Every time MJF cuts a promo, you think that it can't get any better than this and then he somehow tops himself. My jaw took up permanent residence on the floor.

[@trevoredwards544]

At the end of the day, he represents and resonates with the crowd more than anyone else. His boldness is what keeps getting him over. MJF is REAL, that’s why we like him. He deserves that belt and the opportunities because he works hard and does it his way. Regardless if he does or doesn’t we’re going to see him. Shout out to you Max for inspiring others to be bold and never giving up on your dreams.

[@mariopadilla1445]

Oh totally, I’m definitely on board with it!

[@Mastersofinsight]

I don’t like to prebook matches but at the end of the day it is a scripted show. Imagine the BCC slowly falls apart leading up to full gear and Regal hands Mjf the brass knuckles for him to get the win. This would be 7 years in the making. The person who drove MJF to get to where he is mentally and physically by pushing him to his full potential and finally MJF becomes the ultimate Villian and the ultimate protege of sir Regal. I feel like tony is gonna do this so I’m sry for the spoiler but that would be the perfect ending. Remember the quote- “ the greatest thing the devil ever pulled was convincing you he did not exist”. False sense of security for Jon Moxley thinking it would be a clean match. This would be perfect cause we don’t want moxley to loose clean to mjf so it’s perfect and realistically makes so much sense.

[@marcelficoul3618]

[@kunaljungkunwar5408]

@@SmoothLion78 Being good in the ring doesn't only mean doing spot fests bro. There's something called storytelling and that's what makes you a great wrestler. There are rarely wrestlers hailed by everyone who were absolute trash in the mic and storytelling but awesome in the ring alone. But there are tons of wrestlers who further went to become legends in this business who were decent in the ring but top notch when it came to storytelling and absolutely loved pro wrestling. MJF is one of them. That alone makes him great.

[@Radikaltruth505]

He already is the face of the company. He just doesn’t have the belt yet.

[@stang93ful]

He is! Well him and Mox.

[@WraithTDK]

GOD this was amazing work. MJF cuts this ON FIRE promo, sets up Regal is the completely irredeemable villain for what he did to MJF. Nothing he could possibly say would excuse the way he shot down that 19 year old. Then regal takes a freaking MINUTE, explaining what HE went through learning the business at SIXteen, and that if all MJF needed to get the same benefit was one email from Regal than he's had it easy. BOOM. Table is flipped. Absolute legends.

[@jackwalker6475]

They just work, both very different but very similar at the same time. Who ever put them together needs a pay rise.

[@christaylor3572]

This is honestly the greatest promo I've seen. A masterclass by Regal and dear lord MJF has come such a long way in such a short time. His mic skills are incredible, his promo game is near untouchable (sure, Regal, KO and some other names can be thrown in I'm sure) but this goes to show you don't need an altercation to keep attention for 15 minutes, just 2 extraordinary talents doing what they do best. Amazing segment! Edit: I love the smile on Regal's face during MJF's promo, like a proud dad. You knew he loved everything he was seeing and hearing from him and I need more of that in my life. Class.

[@cmwolf310]

Standing F***ing Ovation! THAT was the best promo between two workers I've seen in a VERY, VERY long time. William was next level and Max impressed the living HELL out of me. Great storytelling from one of the best in the business and THE most talented young worker in the business today. Well done both of you!

[@thewriter8762]

These are what makes promos so amazing. Emotionally charged, personal, factual, and walking the line between real and kayfabe. There’s not a lot of promos that do that. This was a rollercoaster of a promo and I felt that intensity.

In the end the crowd didn't expect that this promo is going to be the masterpiece they got astonished and started to clap 👏👏

I woke up this morning seeing tweets that I needed to watch this, hearing on wrestling news channels about how epic this was with character work. Little did I realize how underrated these news channels were making this. This wasn't just epic, this was perfection at its finest. The crowd in two masters hands hanging onto each word. Facial expressions, mannerisms, all on point. By the end of this I had tears in my eyes from sheer joy of seeing a promo like this in 2022. This ladies and gentlemen needs to be shown at every wrestling school and shown to those who feel like giving up. What we just witnessed will be recorded as one of the best of all time. My god that was masterful!

He's the best pure promo since the 70s/80s. Yes, including the Attitude Era. Yes, including Rock. Yes, including Punk. Nobody is on his level because you believe absolutely everything that comes out his mouth because of his commitment and mannerisms. There isn't a superlative good enough for this guy. Even saying "generational talent" undersells how good he is.

Damn, this whole segment was gold. Every single moment. Theatre actors couldn't have done it better.

One of the best promos in the industry. MJF telling a story that connects with almost everyone watching. A lot of us wanted something more than our own lives but it gets taken away like that along with your confidence and self-respect. Then Regal answering with his own story of hardships with passion and rage behind his voice that demands your attention. Neither men was putting the other down, but instead were clashing with emotions of the obstacles that they faced along their journey and that one of them is trying to lit a fire under the other, while the other is ready to blow up.
