Miro Defends Konosuke Takeshita After Konnan Comments

AEW

After Konnan was noted saying an eye-raising comment about Konosuke Takeshita on an episode of his podcast, an AEW star has responded.

Miro writing on Twitter and tagging Konosuke Takeshita:

“I bet you all that konnan, or whatever his name was , can’t last 10 sec with @takesoup” 

In case you missed it, on a recent episode of AEW Dynamite from El Paso, Texas, Takeshita had an epic face off with MJF.

During the match, Takeshita took to the ropes and did a signature Eddie Guerrero shimmy before a frog splash to which apparently Konnan took exception.

Konnan saying on his Keeping it 100 podcast:

“Well, Takeshita, he’s got heat with me. He’s lucky I wasn’t in El Paso, because when he went up and he did the f*****g Eddie Guerrero thing for the frog splash…you’re not Mexican dude. I don’t care. Stick to your nationality.”

However Konnan has since taken to Twitter to clarify, writing:

“the Takeshita thing was a joke, like im really gonna get mad over him doing a frog splash, everyone does it. if u actually believe I was hot, jokes on u..”

For his part, Konosuke Takeshita hasn’t replied but did tweet about his appearance on tonight’s edition of AEW Dark in which he’ll have a big match.

Konosuke Takeshita takes on Iron Savages’ Bronson on AEW Dark, premiering on February 14 on AEW’s YouTube channel.
