Top AEW star MJF appeared on the SI Media podcast, where he discussed various topics, including how his acting career helps the company.
MJF said, “Tony Khan — while he is a mark, he’s not a dumb mark. He’s obviously aware of the fact that the bigger I build my name, the more people who are going to Google search me and go, ‘MJF, AEW, what’s AEW? All Elite Wrestling? I used to watch wrestling as a kid. TBS, Wednesdays, 8 p.m. Alright, I’ll give it a shot.’ And that’s the power that I bring to the table.”
On when he sees himself getting out of wrestling:
“I most certainly have a hard out. However, hard out to me means I’m not going to be on weekly TV, right? But it doesn’t mean that I can’t come back to pop a crowd, to pop the boys, to sell some tickets, to sell some merch. That, I don’t think, ever goes away if you love this.”
