When it came to the reports of the heat between him and Jetspeed, MVP not only shut the rumors down but also gave a glowing account of his experience backstage at AEW. “My experience in the AEW locker room? I – you know – there was some erroneous reporting some time ago that I had heat with somebody that I had absolutely no issue with,” the veteran claimed, adding that everybody in the locker room today seems to be friendly with one another. “If there’s some f**kery going on, I don’t know about it! You know, everybody seems to be awesome, I – you know – I don’t have anybody giving me side-eyes.”

MVP then expressed that the younger guys in the locker room seem respectful to him and claimed that he tries to return the favor whenever he gets the chance to. “If somebody doesn’t walk up and shake my hand and speak to me, I’m not mad at them for it,” he added, seemingly referencing the history of veterans being upset with rookies not greeting locker room leaders in the past. “It’s an etiquette faux pas, you know, but a lot of the time – I know that the business is changing – and certain things that were once a standard of how things are, aren’t necessarily that way anymore.”
