Mustafa Ali shocked the WWE Universe by winning the No. 1 contender match on Monday Night Raw. He earned a shot at the Intercontinental Championship against Gunther at Night of Champions. WWE added flair to his win, using fireworks and pyro during his celebration. As a result, fans trolled it, calling it “Cody Rhodes pyro.”

This week on WWE’s “The Bump“, Mustafa Ali made his appearance and addressed his monumental victory. He took a hilarious shot at the massive pyro that WWE used after his match. Kayla Braxton introduced Ali on the show with a video of his victory on Raw. While the short video clip featured everything, it didn’t have the pyro segment.

Fans trolled WWE and called it similar to the pyro used during Cody Rhodes entrance. Mustafa Ali wasn’t reluctant to mention this during his appearance on The Bump either. “Not only am I going to Night of Champions, not only am I the number one contender. I got that Cody Rhodes Pyro baby! And you didn’t clip that? They want more pyro,” he said.

Ali humorously compared his pyro with that of Cody Rhodes while speaking with Kayla Braxton. The internet received Ali’s pyro in a distinct manner, saying it was overhyped and unnecessary. It looks like the former 205 Live superstar enjoyed the reactions he received from the WWE Universe. He will battle Gunther in one of the biggest matches of his career.

Gunther has been the longest reigning Intercontinental Champion of the modern era. He had dominated and remained undefeated on the main roster. Mustafa Ali criticized The Ring General’s performance and called him a bully for his lesser title defenses.

While speaking on WWE’s The Bump, Ali said, “You know, I just think he’s been a big bully. I think he’s been protecting the championship. I don’t think he defends it as much as he should.” He, however, praised Gunther for the effort he puts in to bring back the honor of the title.

The 37-year-old further stated this situation will change when he dethrones Gunther at Night of Champions. He continued on saying that he’ll be a defending champion, putting over the title on every show he goes on.
