It was MDK all f'n day on Wednesday's Dynamite when Nick Gage took on Chris Jericho.
During the match, Gage used his customary pizza cutter to slice open Jericho directly before an ad for Domino's aired. Domino's wasn't thrilled with the spot, issuing a statement that read, “We share the concerns expressed about this incident and the content of this TV-14 rated program, and are assessing our advertising presence on it going forward."
On Friday, Gage commented on the spot.
He took to social media and wrote, "i tried to cut jerichos scalp off my bad TMZ it is what it is but yeah thanks aew and thanks all MDK gang members we showed em whats up and also sorry dominos didnt mean to offend you guess im too ultraviolent for tv oh well all my new fans come see me at GCW its MDK all fn day."

Despite Domino's assessing their advertising future, TurnerMedia touted the ratings success of Dynamite, which drew over one million viewers and was the number one program on cable in the 18 to 49 demographic.
