Top All Elite Wrestling Star MJF was recently interviewed by the New York Post on a number of topics ahead of his AEW World Title Match against AEW World Champion Jon Moxley at this Saturday’s AEW All Out PPV Event, including his Double Or Nothing PPV Match against Jungle Boy and AEW being the company he ends his professional wrestling career in.
Below are the highlights:
On a fan trying to kidnap him by impersonating an airplane pilot:
“At AEW, a fan tried to dress up I believe like a pilot and was trying to convince our security that they were supposed to fly me out on a private jet after the show. I can assure you that that guy was most certainly not my pilot, so there was once a fan who literally tried to kidnap me. I’ve seen it all. When I was in Mexico, people threw a car battery at me and urine at me. That’s because I don’t tiptoe around. I don’t hide how I feel.”
On getting a reaction from fans:
“Now whether that’s negative or positive it doesn’t really matter to me. All that matters is the fact that I’m the first person people are thinking of when they wake up and I’m the last person people are thinking of when they go to bed.”
On his Double Or Nothing PPV Match against Jungle Boy:
“The reason why I went out there that night was to make a statement. I wanted people to see just how good of a professional wrestler I really am. And I think that was made very crystal clear.”
On AEW being the company he ends his professional wrestling career in:
“It’s great that they had their hand held sometimes by VKM, awesome.” “But I didn’t. I didn’t come from that product. I didn’t come from that land. I am AEW born and bred. I will be AEW until I die. This is my company. This is where I started. This is the company that I’ll end in.”
