"Very recently I have hurt my left knee. I hyperextended it in a match against Rush, who is a bad person. I think we can all agree on that. And honestly, the Nordic Wave... This match happened on Wednesday. It is now, I believe, Tuesday, and my inflammation in my knee has drastically gone down. Obviously, there's still a shit ton of inflammation and pain, but being honest with myself, without this cold plunge, I do believe it would have took me a lot longer to start feeling like myself. And honestly, I think Nordic Wave is gonna be a big part of ensuring that I don't have to take any time off, which is imperative for both my career and frankly, the company of All Elite Wrestling. Ratings, ticket sales, pay-per-view buys, you name it, you're welcome. My name is Maxwell Jacob Friedman. Nordic Wave is my go-to for cold plunging, and I'm better than you, and you know it."
