Konnan seemingly criticized Konosuke Takeshita after he performed Eddie Guerrero’s famous frog splash finisher on last week’s episode of AEW Dynamite in El Paso, TX. Konnan addressed the former DDT-pro wrestling star by saying, “Well, Takeshita, he’s got heat with me, and he’s lucky I wasn’t in El Paso because when he went up, and he did the f*****g Eddie Guerrero thing for the Frog Splash, you’re not Mexican dude, I don’t care, stick to your nationality.”
After making the controversial comments, Konnan took to Twitter and clarified what he meant to say. He wrote,
“the Takeshita thing was a joke, like im really gonna get mad over him doing a frog splash, everyone does it. if u actually believe I was hot, jokes on u..”
It should be noted that if you listened to the podcast, Konnan became pretty heated when he was questioned why he had an issue with the spot. He refused to back down and stuck to his original comment.
