AEW World Champion MJF wrote the following message via Twitter/X:
โAdvice from a guy whose been fortunate enough to have accomplished a lot in his profession at a young age. Iโve noticed something with people in my generation and hopefully this helps you young Poors out there. When you are criticized, of course allow it to upset you. Youโre only human. But it doesnโt matter how good you are at your job, never blow off criticism. Use it. Never rest on your laurels. Thereโs always room for growth.โ
MJF also responded to criticism of his promo segment from the October 4th 2023 edition of AEW Dynamite:
โI could sit here and tell you Iโve consistently been the biggest ratings draw in my company for some time. I can say that Iโve also been universally praised. But the fact is I dropped the ball this week. Thereโs a lot of eyes on me. I canโt afford to do that. Look forward to picking the ball back up on Wednesday [he then corrected it to Tuesday].โ
