Rush has been back on AEW television after a hamstring injury at the end of April and since then he has been firing on all cylinders. He also had an intense segment with MJF on Dynamite this week and he decided to call out fans for disrespecting him with ‘What?’ chants.

During the June 5 edition of AEW Dynamite, MJF began his promo segment with a series of lighthearted antics before turning his attention to AEW’s top stars. He mentioned Kazuchika Okada, Will Ospreay, and AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland, delivering his signature scathing remarks about their positions in the company.

MJF’s assertions of his own superiority were suddenly interrupted by Rush, who had previously issued a stern warning to MJF. The interruption led to a heated verbal exchange, escalating quickly into a physical confrontation. Rush stormed the ring, and the two began exchanging blows, causing chaos that required officials to step in and break up the brawl.

During the segment when Rush was talking, fans showered him with ‘What?’ chants. Rush took to Twitter and sent a scathing message to MJF while also calling out the fans for disrespecting him with the ‘What?’ chants.
