Jim Cornette Reviews MJF vs. Adam Cole at AEW All In London 

A big shout out for keeping kayfabe to Roderick Strong. I was at the same hotel, and he came out of the lift with the neck brace

I love Nigel calling MJf a coward for not doing the tombstone😂

Nigel saved a lot of missed spots during this PPV and it was great to see the professionalism of the commentators covering for the wrestlers. It was great.

This is one of their biggest draws. The fans love it, they love the catchphrases, their solo theme songs and they joint theme song, and they’re selling so many of their T-shirts too. They were selling so many of their merch at London, and AEW always delivers with merch at PPVs and big events.

I really enjoyed this match. Cole doing nearly anything he can to win the match while MJF was thinking about going back to his old ways but didn't want to sacrifice his friendship with Adam.

I love Adam Cole and MJF but there was WAY too much "ok let me move myself into perfect position for the move you're about to do to me" in this match, and it was VERY obvious. A great worker can move himself into position but make it look natural...that art seems to be lost on wrestlers today

Why I haven't seen anyone else talking about the fact that Adam Cole was a total idiot for trying to pull the Eddie Guerrero chair spot if he wanted to win the championship ? Can you win a championship by DQ in AEW since nobody ever get disqualified anyway ?

One thing to not forget…. This is AEW’s first time in UK. The fans were into every match because it was first exposure to some of these wrestlers. The storylines/matches themselves didn’t really matter. It was about the excitement of something new and fresh. I was there

I loved the match, it had so much back and forth and I laughed my ass off when MJF put the chair around his neck

I like the MJF face turn. I know it pains Cornette, but the is the best way they could pull off the turn where there's a logical and interesting reason for it, and it can be taken away if MJF feels betrayed again later. The match was very good with storytelling.

I love the Looney Tunes inspired art😂. I can actually hear Adam and MJF arguing which season it is😂 “Max Season.” “Adam Season.” “MAX SEASON!” “ADAM SEASON!” (Tony Khan Season poster appears) (Max and Adam look at Tony) Tony: “Uh Oh.”

I was hoping Kevin Kelly or Ian Riccaboni was gonna hop on commentary for the last match since we got literally every other commentator, but alas. At least we got Nigel throughout the night.

It was kinda weird seeing MJF as a face in that moment with Cole, I'm just so used to him as a heel

The crazy thing about this event is that TK went through all of this trouble to put on a show in Wembley Stadium, and the most impactful part of the show is what happened backstage. Listening to the reviews of the show, it feels like AEW just aired a series of week shows in Wembley.

I still don't see MJF's current face run as being legit, but he's incredibly likable in this spot and when he's conducting interviews where he's still in character, but still being genuine. No one is going to think he's being serious in this role, but they're going along for the ride.

I'm tired of people ripping off Eddie Guerrero with that chair spot

Unbelievable atmosphere in the stadium!!!

I loved the storytelling in the ring. I was hoping Adam Cole would win but this was more interesting.

The ending worked mainly only cause the crowd was still cheering when it happened.

I can't tell you what this was like in the stadium. Seriously the fake false finish with the draw was genius. If it had stood I can guarantee there was probably going to be a riot. Then when Max said "no" and everyone assumed he was staying heel only to get one of the biggest face pops ever. Was great.

I enjoyed the match, as I enjoy everything with MJF. I just wonder where all of this is going. I don't want more silly skits each week, even though they were fun.

I was fully expecting Cole to turn mega heel, but this was even better. Makes it much more interesting, especially with them holding the ROH tag straps.

I don't believe there is 81000 people there.... does anyone ever fact check Tony??

Everyone sang MJF’s theme live at Wembley, which was cool

Great match, the Double Clothesline spot and when MJF put the chair around his neck was hilarious.

I enjoyed the entire match and sold me more on both guys. That was a pro wrestling Rollercoaster ride

MJF is such a treasure.

this whole MJF/Cole saga reeks of sports entertainment

This doesn't sound like a review of a wrestling show. Sounds like Jim's reviewing a sitcom.

Loved this match They let the crowd feel every moment

That brainbuster on the ring steps look VIOLENT. I honestly was surprised MJF took it & if I hadnt seen his shoulder bleeding beforehand I would have been sold that the stairs did it. I thought he was dead. Excellent spot

MJF & Adam Cole storyline is best thing happening on AEW

The match, with the over the top pantomime and facials, the silliness with the "will he/won't he" all through the match, really reminded of main event matches from 80s WWF. It was a delightfully nostalgic match that few people could really pull off. MJF and Cole were fantastic here. I really enjoyed it.

This definitely adam cole best moments since his NXT run

Cornette is a hard man to please lol. This match was awesome and I fully expected him to love it. How wrong I was.

It felt like a missed chance for Cole to take a roll of quarters from Roddy and hit MJF in the back of the head. MJF’s played up the angle about bullies used to throw quarters at him when he was a child and he’s repeatedly stated that he’s “vulnerable” now… that felt like the perfect opportunity to get Cole nuclear heel heat on the biggest stage. I like the Cole/MJF buddy buddy angle, but I think there’s a fine line where it needs to turn at its peak before it jumps the shark.

This felt less like a wrestling match and more like an episode of The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.

It was amazing seeing this match live

They could have come out of this with MJF vs Punk in Chicago...but...no

Would love to see this be an Ole turning on Dusty storyline

Love the Bugs Bunny/Daffy Duck art Travis!

This match had a NXT Golden Era vibe type of match. Kind of when Adam Cole and Johnny Gargano had their feud.

This storyline is getting Cole over to Main Event Championship level.

This, ehm, match had so much sports entertainment that the WWE started taking notes.

EXCELLENT storytelling. I honestly thought Adam Cole would turn. I was excited for a Megapowers tag team that blows up BEFORE they ever defend the titles. Oh well.

"75 of the 80.000 tickets were sold before we knew the match was going to take place" - Jim Cornette

I hear Jimmy’s point in saying “ would stone cold vs The Rock at a wrestlemania do this“. But with that said, he’s not remembering that the rock put on stone cold’s vest, which one could say, is some pretty houseshow type of material, at wrestlemania of all places, and guess what? It friggin worked. The crowd went crazy for it and boo’d the hell out of him for doing so. Even though a lot of the stuff, MJF and Adam Cole, were doing here one could argue was some houseshow type of stuff, the bottom line is, how did the audience respond? They went absolutely apeshit for it! They loved every second of it. 81,000+ people in unison after sitting through almost 6 hours worth of action, were as emotionally invested in this contest, and every inch of that storyline of friendship, as possible. They are the ultimate judge. And they proved they loved every second of it.

I wanted to see the Match for the Match. I didn't care for all the Subplots and Drama stuff, but I did enjoy MJF poking Adam in the Eye and then playing to the Crowd. I did like that Spot. I liked the Panama Sunrise on the Ref Spot was nice as well.

The twist with the Eddie Guerrero chair spot was awesome

Didn’t see the appeal of this match. The wrestling was fine, no botches or anything, thankfully. But the goofiness, the silly tributes to Eddie and repeating the ECW Terry’s title win from 1997 did not fit this particular matchup. Overall, not main event level but passable for AEW, for sure. Let’s see where they go from here. Commentary was good; Nigel was impeccable the whole night.

Id rather watch MJF vs Elmer Fudd

Fantastic storytelling and there's plenty of tread on the tires for this! Run with it... also Adam Cole works so much better as a heel in these type of matches. On tonights Dynamite they've hit another stride involving Roddy (doing his best character work in years) and the kingdom..explained their entire back history also.

This reminds me when a movie critic that loves theater reviews a top horror or comedy movie and you know they are minimally qualified at best to review it, Brian Last helped to reel Jim in as realizing how over this story was, I bought the ppv for this match, believe me this is the best baby face vs baby face match that could possibly have happened every thing hit right and perfect to even after the match is over. I could care less if Austin vs Rock would look like this, because MJF is MJF and Adam Cole Baybay they don't need to be them they need to be themselves, they are their own stars and they shined bright on the biggest stage in wrestling history.

I liked the match. The ending was a lot for me. I have never heard someone so thoroughly profess their love for another wrestler. Not a brother, father or son. So that felt very bizarre lol.

This was such a great example of story telling and wrestling when blended properly is MESMERIZING. This took a B plus PPV and made it into an A ppv. How many times did BOTH rasslers change heel to babyface in the match? This was the BEST storytelling match and such a great match that will be talked about for a long time. I LOVED THE MATCH. This story has legs and will keep going another 3 to 6 months.

I guess the tag team of ‘Better Than You Bay Bay’ must be making a sh!t-ton of money for them to keep it going, also, it creates an interesting dynamic - when, or even if the turn will take place, and who will instigate it - most people would expect MJF to do the turn, but they could have AC turn to massive heat because of how over MJF is right now, also, I’m sure it’s a guilty pleasure for many to cheer on MJF as a face when he is the epitome of a heel…. I like how this is playing out, keeping us guessing as to how it’s going to go - I just hope they don’t screw this up

psychology of this match is what wwe fans think romans actually doing when hes not at all.

as much as I like these guys, I hated the finish. I felt like they should have either turned one or someone should have come out and laid them both out. What drew me to the building on Sunday was Punk, if he wasn't there I wouldn't have bought a ticket

Did you see during the entrance, the man pushing MJF on his pedestal, he must have miscalculated how far to push because they hit the stairs, and knock one of the women bowing down.😂

I really wanna hear what Jim has to say about the press scrum where mjf said yeah we don’t get along it’s wrestling

So basically, they did all the shit you do in the weeks leading up to the ppv to sell the match in the match they did nothing to sell in previous weeks on TV.

the goofy stuff worked for me cause they were doing comedy bits weekly leading up to this match. if they were serious for the past month and pulled a comedy bit during the match than that would’ve felt wrong and random.

i loved watching this live! cant wait until next year. i didnt see a single jim t-shirt all day so i dont know who said that.

They got the Double point "Double Clothesline" spot over to the point where they should've just done the Double point and let the crowd say Double Clothesline. They would've been itchihg to do it anyway and the crowd was taught it in the opening match if they didn't know. If they didn't say Double Clothesline, there'd be the plausible deniability that they both just thought they were gonna Clothesline the guy. Nitpick. But l feel like that's a little thing that the two guys in the moment just wouldn't think about until it's brought up by someone else outside of them putting the match together.

It makes perfect sense with them winning the tag title, they can't just break up after that they have to defend that title with resentment festering that eventually causes the break up

MJF and Adam Cole The true kings and queens of sports entertainment 😂

Can't believe at wrestlemania X7 stone cold didn't start crying as he was turning heel to win the the championship And then Rock also cried because he was happy for his friend. This whole mjf cole program became cringe real fast like a tik tok trend.

Biggest show ever and nothing crazy happened on camera. No big angles or surprises. Just a giant house show. If it wasn’t for Punk and Jungle Jack nobody would remember anything about this show past the attendance.

I told people it was going to be like Summerslam 92 but they hug at Wembley.

Roderick Strong reminds me of Prock from The Awesomes, always breaking his arm.

Fans do not want MJF/Cole to turn on each other. They are extremely over.

It was a great match. Loved. Even the after brith was good..

Roderick Strong has become the Sami Zayn on The Bloodline for this Better Than You Bay Bay story.

Thought they did a brilliant job, there is plenty more juice in the angle. Unfortunately, they won't have a better setting to end it than Wembley.

8:41 Austin would’ve definitely done this as a heel in 2001 during his goofy heel phase, and the crowd would’ve eaten it up lol

This is so stupid. “You were supposed to be my friend.” is every AEW storyline

"The greatest trick the devil ever did was convincing the world he didn't exist" MJF is a wolf in sheep clothes milking Cole to get those tag belts and will dump him as soon as he doesn't need him, but maybe Cole has something big up on his sleeves too (Keith Lee? Wardlow?) To have the last laugh. This storyline is so awesome because it can go in many directions and all are good

If we can say anything, I like watching Adam cole again, forgot how good he can be when he’s working with top guys. I hope punk stays because him, max and cole could do some great business

They really should have triggered that betrayal, It would have been great

This will never happen, but I would love to hear Jim & Brian review Adam Cole vs Chris Danger. The match hasn’t happened yet, but it will be Danger’s first match ever. Chris was trained by Tyler Breeze and Shawn Spears. Chris is a hell of a promo and he takes everything seriously. I would genuinely love to hear Jim & Brian critique Chris Danger’s first match. Hopefully, this match goes well and gets shared enough that Jim & Brian pick up on it.

1:30 "as a *friend*"? are we watching the same relationship dynamic lmao

"We had to have finishes; they just need hugs!" Corny & Brian underestimate just how atomised, intimacy-starved and interpersonally-traumatised our (Millennial & Zoomer) generations are. We have a vicarious need for these displays.

I left after the double pin , I couldn't get into the match plus wanted to beat the traffic .

"YOU CAN NOT BE SERIOUS RIGHT NOW!". John McEnroe

The Rock have some silly thing with Ange, Triple H, Kane, Mick Foley, so yes, we can see that spot with him

I had the same thought about the referee. He acted way too quickly

It was ok up until the double pin, all went to s**t after that.

Someone online said that Cole and MJF is AEW's version of the Bloodline. And I am inclined to agree.

Shouldve pulled the trigger on the betrayal

I’ll be wearing my Cornette face tee at Grand Slam. Ringside, second row, hard-cam side.

I thoroughly enjoyed it

Why are there hour long commercials after 2.5 minutes of viewing this video?

Wait I'm confused, I just watched a clip where Adam and MJF were entering together to the mixed theme song. Did they switch heel in the same match?

What we are learning is Adam cole is better when hes put with people and not as a solo guy

I think AEW know this has been their main draw and they had no choice but they needed to move the storyline so people know the next Wembley show people will think they need to be there cause All In is where they move storylines and is a must be. No way they fill a stadium like that over in the States

This match fit the story!

this match sucked

The Eddie spot made no sense because mjf is like we're restarting the match till there's a winner and then immediately tries to win by dq

Although I agree with Jim about nearly everything, and sense is sense, that also fits with how society now like bro let's hug yeah. Would Rock and Austin do it? But would Backlund and Superstar Billy Graham do what Rock and Austin did 25 years earlier too?

I really think this fued needs to get rolling
