“Speedball” Mike Bailey addresses internet rumors of having backstage heat with MVP

It was previously reported that the idea of MVP rubbing people in AEW the wrong way was echoed by multiple wrestlers over the past few months. It is said to be well known within AEW that MVP disliked “Speedball” Mike Bailey.

While speaking to 94Wip, Bailey addressed the rumors…

“He said ‘f*ck you’ to me, I said ‘f*ck you’ to him. This is pro wrestling. I think it’s very silly to go online, read that these two pro wrestlers do not like each other. ‘Oh man, they hate each other.’ This is a wrestling show. Kevin and I tried to take the Hurt Syndicate’s tag team championships away from them many times for several months leading up to All In. We hate each other. Of course. Sure. [Laughs]. Why not. At the end of the day, whatever makes the best show for the audience is what we’re into. If hating each other is part of that, then let’s roll with it.” (quote courtesy of Jeremy Lambert)
