MJF is doubling down on one of AEWs most talked-about crowd momentsand drawing a direct line between how AEW and WWE handle their audiences. After the Las Vegas crowds F*** ICE chant went viral during AEW Dynamite, MJF addressed the situation on The Adam Friedland Show and made it clear he sees it as a positivenot a problem. He pointed to that moment as proof of what makes All Elite Wrestling different, stating that AEW doesnt try to control or silence its audience: We had a F*** ICE chant whileit kind of went viral. From there, MJF explained why that moment stood out to him, tying it directly to AEWs approach to fan interaction: And I think whats so cool about that is, in our company, our fans have a voice. He then shifted the comparison straight to WWE, claiming that the same situation wouldve been handled very differently there. MJF didnt stop at production differences either. He went further, suggesting there are broader differences in direction between the two companies. He then pointed to specific examples to back up that claim, referencing WWE leaderships ties to political spaces: You know, Triple H has done a couple of speeches in the White House, and Linda McMahon, I believe, is in the cabinet. The takeaway here is clearMJF isnt just defending a viral chant. Hes using it to show what he sees as a fundamental difference between AEW and WWE: one lets the crowd be heard, the other controls the message. And by tying that into broader commentary about company direction, hes turning a crowd moment into a much bigger conversation. So with MJF backing AEWs decision not to censor its audience, do you think letting chants like that air freely is the right moveor should companies step in and control what gets broadcast?
