After securing victory in the Casino Gauntlet Match at All In: Texas, MJF has made it clear that his next move is to reclaim the AEW World Championship—and he’s targeting none other than the new titleholder, “Hangman” Adam Page.
Appearing on the Unlikely podcast, the former champion didn’t hold back in his trademark blunt style, calling Page “talentless,” “a phony,” and “a loser,” while claiming that AEW’s peak success came under his leadership.
MJF Manifested The Moment
Reflecting on his Casino Gauntlet win, MJF said the outcome wasn’t a surprise, but rather the result of relentless mental preparation and obsession.
“I saw it coming. I manifest these things in my head—I think about them over and over again, ad nauseam,” MJF explained. “Everything I say and do in the ring has to be perfect. That’s why you never catch MJF slipping—it’s not a thing. That night was a great night. I’ve got the Casino Gauntlet contract now. I can execute it whenever I want.”
“He’s A Phony. He’s A Loser.”
MJF then shifted his focus to the reigning AEW World Champion, delivering a savage verbal assault on Hangman Page and questioning his value to the company.
“Sea Biscuit—the cowboy Hangman Adam Page—is talentless. He’s a bad person. He’s a phony. The only reason people ever got behind him is because they felt bad for him. He’s a loser, and I’m excited to beat him and take back what’s rightfully mine.”
“When I was champion, AEW was thriving by every metric: highest gates, top-tier ratings, best segments—because the company was on my back. Don’t let social media fool you.”
“A horse can’t be the face of your company…”
In classic MJF fashion, he delivered one of the boldest statements yet: “A horse can’t be the face of your company. I said it back at the very first pay-per-view in AEW history. What you need is a beautiful man with a beautiful Burberry scarf—and you’re looking at him.”
When Will MJF Cash In?
With the Casino Gauntlet contract in hand, MJF can challenge for the AEW World Championship at any time. One likely destination? The upcoming AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door pay-per-view, set for August 24, where MJF could look to reclaim the spotlight and the title.
