Hall Of Famer Says Current AEW Star Could Be The Next Rock On The Microphone

There’s no denying that The Rock is one of the best to ever cut promos in the world of professional wrestling, and there are few who can match him on the microphone. Mic skills are certainly important when it comes to getting noticed, and MJF has received a lot of attention for his mic skills.

During a recent episode of Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray named wrestlers he would be looking to work with if he started a wrestling promotion. While talking about the current crop of talent Bully Ray brought up MJF, and he made major praise for MJF’s mic skills.

“I was going back and forth between two, HOOK was one of them. I don’t know if you guys are really going to consider this a sleeper pick but I’m going with him. It’s MJF. Is he really considered a sleeper pick? I don’t know. But he’s a younger talent, when you say sleeper, I equate it to younger.”

“So I was like HOOK, Austin Theory, MJF. MJF is the guy for me. He’s a younger talent, who, we all know, the sky is the absolute limit. Who knows what he [is capable of]?”

“If anybody could ever challenge what The Rock was able to accomplish on the microphone, I think it’s MJF. I think given time, seasoning, the right people to stand across from him, the right people to tighten his screws, MJF could become the next Rock on the microphone.”
