Modified Jan 16, 2020 08:55 GMT

Tonight's AEW Dynamite "Bash At The Beach" special opened with a Tag Team Fatal Four-Way #1 Contender's match. Hangman Page and Kenny Omega defeated Santana and Ortiz, Best Friends, and The Young Bucks to become the #1 contenders for the AEW Tag Team titles.

WWE Superstar King Corbin took a major shot at the match, and hinted that it consisted of nothing but high spots and dives. Corbin also took a shot at AEW fans at the end of the tweet, and referred to them as neckbeards. Check out the tweet below:

Corbin's tweet didn't sit well with AEW fans. Many took shots at him in the replies, with the general consensus being that someone who was featured in a dog food segment shouldn't take shots at others. Pro-wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer also responded to Corbin and took a shot at Triple H in the process.

This isn't the first time Corbin has taken a shot at All Elite Wrestling. He took a jibe at the company way back in May when it presented its very first show, Double Or Nothing. Corbin was asked by a fan whether he was watching the show, to which he replied that he had to wash his hair.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
