During a backstage interview last week MJF made a phone call before addressing Wardlow. He let Wardlow know that his opponent would be smarter, stronger, and taller than him. He ended by saying &#8220;You Can&#8217;t Teach That&#8221; a callback to Morrissey&#8217;s catchphrase when he was in WWE under the name <strong>Big<\/strong> <strong>Cass<\/strong>. The catchphrase was a signature part of his tag team alongside <strong>Enzo Amore.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Morrissey has been seen weekly on IMPACT Wrestling as of late. He debut for IMPACT last year and has found himself in multiple title matches ever since. He was recently locked in a feud with <strong>Moose<\/strong> following Moose&#8217;s betrayal of Morrissey to win the Call Your Shot Gauntlet that Moose would later use to become IMPACT World Champion.<\/p>\n<p>It isn&#8217;t clear if this is the last appearance for the foreseeable future for Morrissey in AEW yet. IMPACT and AEW were in a working relationship for part of 2021 that saw wrestlers from one company appearing on the other.
