MJF heads to the ring. Before MJF can get started, Brody King shows up, and when MJF says Brody is as deaf as he is big and stupid, Brody almost chases MJF out of the ring. Brody King stands in the corner to let MJF get back in the ring and speak, and MJF tells Brody that if he wants a shot at him, he needs to beat someone that matters, but instead, he is following him around like a lost puppy like he did Malakai Black. He also mentions Brody King following around Buddy Matthews before making fun of Buddy's ankle injury and mentioning Brody King's current partnership in Bandido, who he calls "a complete loser." MJF then says that Brody should follow him around, and that he can pay him handsomely since he is big, dangerous and talented. He admits they have to fix the aesthetic, as he has never met a liberal man who looks more like a Nazi. MJF says he will have Brody King looking good in a suit and a scarf, then calls Brody King's World title aspirations "cute" and "a dream" before telling him that to become World Champion, he needs to be a leader like him. He states that just like the fans, Brody King is nothing more than a follower. Brody says he does not need to follow anyone, and says that unlike MJF, he has friends. He also tells MJF that he has sat down with Tony Khan regarding an opponent who would be best for preparing for a title shot, and that they both agreed on MJF. Brody puts his hand on a confused MJF's shoulder and tells MJF to follow him, then says that they will have an AEW World Championship Eliminator Match, which he will win before facing him for the World Championship. MJF is mad at himself as Brody leaves.
