Over the years a number of wrestling stars have made a successful jump to Hollywood, and it looks like one of the top names in AEW has their sights set on life outside of the business.
MJF recently spoke to Sam Roberts on Notsam Wrestling, and he claimed that he landed a huge movie role that will be announced soon. He also claimed that once he’s done with wrestling the fans will never see him again.
“I don’t even like wrestling. I study it. I had to, in order to be the best. Throughout studying it, I grew an appreciation towards professional wrestling, but once I’m done with wrestling, you will never see me again. Ever. I’m using this sport like a succubus, I’m sucking the life out of it, the blood, the money, and then I will be gone. I’ve already booked a HUGE movie, I’m not allowed to announce what it is, but it will be happening and it will be announced soon. I have that going on. The people at Warner Brothers Discovery are crazy high on MJF and are coming up with potential ideas for MJF outside of the wrestling-sphere. There’s also a podcasting opportunity that has been thrown my way that I am considering.”
In recent weeks MJF has been keeping a close eye on the AEW World Title picture as he has a guaranteed title shot thanks to the poker chip that The Firm secured for him at the All Out pay-per-view. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
