MJF isnt exactly known for modesty and during a recent interview he made it very clear how important he believes he is to All Elite Wrestling. While speaking with Denise Salcedo, MJF was asked about a previous comment where he suggested he might never leave AEW. Salcedo brought up the remark directly and asked if he truly sees AEW as the place hell remain long term. Before giving his full answer, MJF first admitted that nothing in professional wrestling is ever guaranteed. He pointed out how unpredictable the industry can be and even referenced someone who once insisted they would never return to a certain company only to eventually do exactly that. Despite acknowledging that anything can happen in wrestling, MJF said his honest feeling right now is that AEW is his company and that he sees himself as the promotions top star. He then took things a step further and claimed that AEW would struggle significantly if he were no longer part of the roster. The Salt of the Earth argued that if AEW is going to remain a true alternative in professional wrestling, it needs a major star capable of reaching audiences outside the traditional wrestling bubble. To support that claim, MJF pointed to the success hes already had outside of wrestling, noting that his career is expanding into the entertainment industry as well. He also teased that there are additional projects currently in development in Hollywood. With his wrestling career and outside ventures both gaining traction, MJF wrapped things up by boldly claiming hes a major reason AEW is thriving right now. Whether fans agree with him or not, MJF clearly isnt dialing back the confidence and if you ask him, AEWs future is tied directly to the man holding the microphone. Do you think MJF is truly AEWs most important star right now, or is the company bigger than any one wrestler? Let us know what you think in the comments.
