On this week's show, WWE NXT star Javier Bernal made fun of AEW star Christian Cage. The segment came following McKenzie Mitchell's interview with Kiana James backstage. After James left the scene, Bernal arrived.

Mitchell received a list of 1,047 people Bernal disagrees with when he wants to wrestle. Axiom is ranked first, but Mac reminded him that he is hurt. Elon Musk and Drake were also included on his list.

She informed Bernal that the number 250 on the list is retired. In reference to WWE World Heavyweight Christian's catchphrase, Bernal claimed that despite saying to be retired, they always come back for one more game. Mitchell disregarded his list before Bernal stormed out of the interview.

"Is he though, I mean they always say that they are retired but they always come back for one more match. How about one more match with Big Body Javi, you know what they say McKenzie never say never"

The reference to WWE legend Christian in Javier Bernal's backstage promo was instantly called out by the wrestling community on Twitter.

Big Body Javi posted the iconic WCW promo of the former Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho on Twitter.


Wrestling fans want WWE legend to go up against Edge at WrestleMania

This scenario was created by the Twitter account @IWCBookingBot, which creates random match scenarios for fans to discuss. Fans suggested that they want to see a retirement match between Edge and Christian Cage take place at WrestleMania 39 next year.

Currently, with Christian Cage being signed with AEW it is unlikely that we'll see the former tag team have one final match. However, Fans will have to wait and see.
