John Cena and Cody Rhodes both made reference to AEW on Monday's WWE Raw during their promo battle in the opening segment.
Rhodes mentioned that he got booed in the company he started and Cena mentioned that he helped billionaires create empires, not stole from their kids, a reference to Tony Khan.
Fans reacted as fans are going to react to WWE mentioning AEW, and MJF doesn't get it.
I truly don’t get why fans get up in arms when WWE mentions or references AEW.

Or when AEW mentions or references WWE.
If you want to be treated like children, watch Elmo.
Or better yet. Tell VKM to start a new promotion.
MJF has made multiple references to WWE during his time in AEW, specifically leading up to the "Bidding War of 2024."
