AEW World Champion MJF has made a name for himself for being one of the most disliked wrestlers in all of wrestling.
MJF is trying to get the most out of his wrestling career with accolades and money, something he has incorporated into his character by constantly reminding the fans that his AEW deal is up in 2024, and he’s willing to go to WWE.
While speaking on K&C Masterpiece, AEW President Tony Khan discussed his relationship with MJF, where he noted that while he can be hard to work with, MJF is a great wrestler.
“He’s one of the most dislikable people there is. He elicits that emotion for a lot of people. He’s a very challenging personality and very hard to work with, but he’s a great professional wrestler. We saw it last week, that incredible match to kick off Championship Fight Night on Dynamite. MJF is a great wrestler, he showed it out there one-on-one against (Konosuke) Takeshita.”
He stated that MJF’s 60-minute Iron Man match against Bryan Danielson on March 5 at Revolution would be the ultimate test for him as Bryan is one of the best technical wrestlers of all time.
Khan was also on Busted Open Radio today, where he put over MJF:
Tony Khan puts over MJF as one of the best wrestlers on the planet. He says the upcoming MJF-Danielson Ironman match will give fans the best value for their money.
