Freddie Prinze Jr. Believed Adam Cole Would Turn On MJF At AEW All In 2023

On a recent edition of his “Wrestling with Freddie” podcast, Freddie Prinze Jr. shared his thoughts on the events surrounding the pairing of Adam Cole and MJF at AEW All In 2023.

Prinze expected a different conclusion to MJF and Cole’s bromance storyline and was pleasantly surprised by the actual outcome.

MJF defeated Cole to retain the AEW World Championship in the main event of All In 2023.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On his predictions going into the show: “I thought, for sure, Adam Cole was going to turn on Max and they were going to lose that match. And that was going to be Adam Cole turning heel and then they were going to have this epic match and, ‘We’ll see who can win in the championship [main event].’ They did not do that, they stayed ‘Bros for life’ and won the Ring of Honor Tag Team Championship, which completely surprised me, and probably a lot of people, because it seemed like they wouldn’t do that. But if they’re trying to put those titles over and trying to put Ring of Honor over, and get yet another show on TV, then maybe that’s the right thing to do.”

On the duo’s chemistry: “This has been a great story. I thought it was coming to an end tonight [at All In]. It most certainly is not. It was simply chapter one, the Roderick Strong stuff guarantees you that. I got the finish wrong, I got everything wrong, although I think I said Max would win. They told a great story. It’s like watching an old ’80s teen angst movie. It’s like the things they fight over, they treat the belt like the girl they both have a crush on, the dialogue feels so ’80s, like a buddy cop film, like Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte going back and forth in ’48 Hrs.’ I’ve loved everything about it.”
