JD feels like he's deserving of the respect he doesn't give others. That's not a way to operate. You can respectfully critique and be respected. When you're disrespectful and loud about it you're not free from consequence. Whether Mercedes got him pulled from commentary or not, that's a direct consequence of his own public actions. Women in the industry have dragged him for a while and he acts like he's just allowed to go about the wrestling space with no consequences. Not how it works.
