The Chicago fans vehemently rejected Brandi’s promo on the show, raining down boos and expletive-laden chants at her.
Furthermore, the AEW star was so strongly disliked that American Top Team’s chief, Dan Lambert, who regularly takes potshots at the company’s fanbase, was cheered over her.
While speaking on the latest edition of his podcast, Keepin It 100’, Konnan stated that Brandi Rhodes has “real heat” from AEW fans due to her unlikeable character. The WCW legend added the viewers didn’t want to hear Brandi talk and explained that she has a kind of heat that not many have in the wrestling business.
Konnan doesn’t want to see AEW book Brandi Rhodes vs. Paige VanZant
The segment on AEW Dynamite ended with Paige VanZant making her return and brawling with Brandi Rhodes. It’s abundantly clear that Tony Khan and co. are building a match between the two performers. However, Konnan admitted that he didn’t want to see the bout, saying the brawl on Dynamite was “terrible.”
The WCW legend added that the company has elite female in-ring performers like Britt Baker, Thunder Rosa, and more, and as such, it makes little sense to invest in a feud between Paige and Brandi.
With Revolution 2022 less than a month away, there’s a chance AEW could book Paige VanZant’s debut match for the pay-per-view. It’s safe to assume the crowd will certainly be on the MMA star’s side during the clash.
