Default Pizza reheating experiment

Historically, I'll nuke the pizza for about forty-five seconds to a
minute and then I put it on either a frying pan or cast iron
skillet. The whole slice is hot already and teh pan crunches the
bottom. Comes out perfectly every time.

I don't have an air fryer and I keep hearing about their miraculous
means of cooking without oil, yet frying the food as if oil were
used. I'm skeptical and no one I know has provided a food sample to
prove it.
