The moment you do that you almost become like a cat with a piece of string. I could pull this piece of string forever and that cat is gonna keep chasing it, we\u2019re just going to constantly move the goalposts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He said MJF just can&#8217;t help but try to prove doubters of his wrong.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;(H)e\u2019s a generational talent, the guy\u2019s incredible on the microphone and showed it to everyone. He\u2019s an incredible worker. But the main thing about it is that he\u2019s, without a doubt one, of the best wrestlers in the world. But if anyone\u2019s gonna look at that match and think that it\u2019s a foregone conclusion that MJF is better than Will Ospreay, well, at the 59-minute mark I feel like he realized that he wasn\u2019t exactly on my level, so he needed to do something cheap to secure the win.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Check out the latest episode of the Wade Keller Pro to stream Wrestling Post-show covering last night&#8217;s episode of Dynamite: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/episode\/aew-dynamite-post-show-8-21-keller-donofrio-evaluate-danielson-swerve-mjf-ospreay-mone-baker-more--61111078\">CLICK HERE<\/a> (or search \u201cwade Keller\u201d on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or any other iOS or Android app to subscribe free)<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/player?episode_id=61111078&amp;theme=light&amp;playlist=false&amp;playlist-continuous=false&amp;chapters-image=true&amp;episode_image_position=right&amp;hide-logo=false&amp;hide-likes=false&amp;hide-comments=false&amp;hide-sharing=false&amp;hide-download=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"200px\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>RECOMMENDED NEXT:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2024\/08\/21\/aew-dynamite-results-8-21-kellers-report-on-danielson-strickland-final-showdown-with-nigel-hosting-okada-vs-claudio-hook-vs-big-bill-storm-vs-saraya-more\/\">AEW DYNAMITE RESULTS (8\/21): Keller\u2019s report on Danielson-Strickland final showdown with Nigel hosting, Okada vs. Claudio, Hook vs. Big Bill, Storm vs. Saraya, more<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>OR CHECK THIS OUT AT PROWRESTLING.NET:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/prowrestling.net\/site\/2024\/08\/22\/powells-aew-dynamite-hit-list-swerve-strickland-and-bryan-danielson-mjf-and-will-ospreay-kazuchika-okada-vs-claudio-castagnoli-for-the-aew-continental-title\/\">Powell\u2019s AEW Dynamite Hit List: Swerve Strickland and Bryan Danielson, MJF and Will Ospreay, Kazuchika Okada vs. Claudio Castagnoli for the AEW Continental Title<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wade Keller Post-show - AEW Dynamite w\/cohost Gregg Kanner\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NBkgiWI4RWI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
