Nick Gage put on a Nick Gage match on national television against Chris Jericho on AEW Dynamite, which included his usage of a pizza cutter.
While most fans appreciated that AEW allowed Gage to have his style of deathmatch, not everyone was happy.
Right after Gage used a pizza cutter to slice up Chris Jericho's forehead, a Domino's ad aired. And Domino's wasn't thrilled.
“We share the concerns expressed about this incident and the content of this TV-14 rated program, and are assessing our advertising presence on it going forward,” said spokeswoman Jenny Fouracre-Petko to Front Office Sports.
It is noted that Domino's was not involved and had no knowledge of what was happening on AEW Dynamite.
