MVP and “Speedball” Mike Bailey found each other backstage at Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, following reports of the pair have been having issues.
In a post shared by MVP on his Instagram channel, he and the rest of The Hurt Syndicate run into Bailey, who is filming a video, backstage. MVP walks up behind Bailey and jokingly tells him “F–k you, Speedball.” Bailey, acting shocked, simply says, “Well f–k you too, MVP” in return.
The playful interaction comes just a few hours after reports surfaced that alleged MVP had “heat” backstage with several people. In the report, several wrestlers have said MVP has upset people behind the scenes. The report confirmed some details initially shared in a Twitter Space by The Wrestling Binder’s JCup2013. It doesn’t appear that there’s a direct issue with Bobby Lashley or Shelton Benjamin.
Many backstage sources claim MVP openly dislikes “Speedball” Mike Bailey and didn’t want The Hurt Syndicate to lose the AEW World Tag Team Titles to JetSpeed. Whether or not that’s true remains unknown, but it seems the pair are fine enough to openly joke about it for the time being.
