On the latest episode of his “Strictly Business” podcast, Eric Bischoff discussed Tony Khan putting AEW World Champion MJF and Adam Cole on the pre-show of AEW All In 2023, where they are slated to challenge Aussie Open for the ROH World Tag Team Championships. This will precede MJF’s World Title defense against Cole in the main event later that same night.

Bischoff criticized the choice to feature Cole and Friedman on the pre-show, particularly with ROH’s involvement. Questioning the decision to dilute valuable talent and a compelling narrative on the pre-show, Bischoff said,

“It would be like if I was sitting at the table and somebody said, ‘Hey, I got an idea. Let’s put arguably two of the biggest names on a roster’ — and you’re taking your position, because I haven’t followed it , maybe one of the best storylines going — ‘and let’s have it in the pregame show, because it’s Ring of Honor.’ First of all, nobody f**king cares about Ring of Honor. Why would you dilute your event and two of your, at least from my perspective, valuable pieces of talent and in your perspective, one of your best storylines on the pregame show? If you haven’t advanced your story by now, you’re dead in the water. But you have advanced it.”

Bischoff also praised MJF’s promo skills and character, believing that MJF was AEW’s most vital talent, positioned as the linchpin for the company’s future success, before reiterating his criticism of the polarizing booking decision. He said,

“You know, I saw the clips of MJF’s promo. I think the world of MJF, I think he’s probably the most important talent on that show. And I think he’s the most important part of the future of AEW. He is, without question, the most entertaining character on that show. I’ll argue — I don’t care about anybody else’s opinion. If you think differently than me, you’re not thinking at all. You’re reacting emotionally because you have a fanboy. Listen, MJF is the most valuable man on that roster. And to put him on the pregame show? Who cares [if he’s also in the main event]? He’s in the pregame show. It’s the silliest damn thing I’ve ever heard. Whoever came up with an idea should be beat. Like, wrap a baseball bat in a towel so you don’t do any permanent damage. But inflict some discomfort, if you will for even coming up with an idea like that. And who said, ‘Yeah, I like that’? Please put them in a corner. Tape their mouth shut, and take their laptop away. Don’t let him communicate for at least a month.”
