[Mitch Buchannon]

Some bad timing.

Bro they went PiP during Jericho’s and Gage’s entrances too. It was nice that they did it during certain matches but holy fuck doing it during a promo was stupid.

Domino's Disavows AEW's Bloody 'Pizza Cutter' Spectacle on TNT

Domino's Pizza is disavowing any involvent in AEW's Wednesday night telecast showing a wrestler slicing up his opponent with a pizza cutter.

Domino’s Pizza is disavowing any involvement or knowledge of All Elite Wrestling’s (AEW) bloody telecast in which one pro wrestler seemingly wielded a pizza cutter to slice his opponent’s head open.

The fast food giant might also pull its advertising schedule from AEW, which airs Wednesday nights on WarnerMedia’s TNT network.

Domino’s was not involved, nor had any foreknowledge, of the gory scene on the “AEW Dynamite” main event Wednesday night that showed wrestler Nick Gage apparently slicing Chris Jericho’s head open with a pizza cutter, spokeswoman Jenny Fouracre-Petko told FOS Thursday night.


TNT followed the blood-stained AEW action with a commercial for the family-oriented pizza brand in which Domino’s workers are seen slicing up a fresh pie for a delivery.

“We share the concerns expressed about this incident and the content of this TV-14 rated program, and are assessing our advertising presence on it going forward,” said Fouracre-Petko.

AEW posted a video of the bloody main event on its Twitter feed Thursday.

“Just like he promised, @thekingnickgage is CARVING UP @IAmJericho!” the wrestling promotion tweeted to its 644,000 followers.

Founded in 2019, AEW is trying to challenge wrestling giant WWE for fans and TV viewers. But it’s bloody matches have turned off some fans and critics, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

It was honestly a funny coincidence that that happened

I feel like Tony will definitely be having a talk with the network after last night's show.

 

[Chris]

He okay'd it with TNT prior but advertisers are probably a different story

 

[Comrade Khan]

Pussies in suits

 

[Necro]

Yeah I'm sure he won't do anything like this for awhile.

 

[Chris]

I can't believe they played a pizza commercial right after dude used a pizza cutter though
