MJF has been one of the stars to watch in wrestling for years now, and he’s solidified himself as one of the top names in All Elite Wrestling. Currently MJF is the AEW World Champion and he’s constantly in the main event of AEW pay-per-views.
While talking about his spot on the card during a recent interview with Undisputed, Maxwell Jacob Friedman made it clear that he doesn’t think other top guys in the industry are as good as he is bell to bell.
“I was match number f**king twelve. Twelve. You think that happens to other f**king top guys in this industry? No. But other top guys in this industry aren’t as good as I am bell-to-bell, so they can’t handle it. They can barely handle being the main event after three matches on a card.
I’m MJF. Ain’t nobody going to be able to follow me; ain’t nobody going to be able to top me, so I look at it as a challenge. Would it be nice if my boss had a 10-match card instead? Or an eight-match card? Yes, that would be f**king lovely. But at the end of the day, I knew why everybody bought a ticket. They bought a ticket to see MJF, amongst other stars, yes, but they wanted to see me get my head shaved. That’s not ever happening. So it made it even sweeter to pocket their money and crush their hopes and dreams.”
MJF will be defending his title against Kenny Omega during this week’s episode of Dynamite, and it’s been confirmed that if Kenny loses he will never be able to challenge for the AEW World Championship again.
