AEW World Champion MJF has a locker room secret that has now been revealed by a big AEW name who definitely has the backstage tea.
The scoop?
MJF is actually incredibly helpful!
According to Mark Henry who was appearing on Booker T’s Hall of Fame podcast, he was asked why there hasn’t been more focus on MJF on AEW television.
Henry said:
“I think that he’s polarizing enough that every show you already market the fact that MJF is going to be there.
“For him not to be greedy when he could be, he could say, ‘No I don’t want Edge, I don’t want Adam Copeland, I don’t want Bryan Danielson, I don’t want Samoa Joe, I don’t want a CM Punk. I want the spotlight for myself” means that he is, just like I said just a minute ago, a guy that wants the greater good.
That wants to be successful not by the means of it’s just me, but successful by the means of the organization and the program that you’re trying to build.
He is brilliant beyond his years.”
Going on to elaborate, Henry revealed that MJF is actually very helpful behind the scenes, seeking out ways to be of service, saying:
“You walk in the locker room and he helps with production, he helps with, you know, helping write for people that can’t do it for themselves.
“He goes and supports — and you see him going through like what camera angles to take. He’s 20 some years old. You don’t find that very often.
“To have that understanding, I’m like, ‘Where the hell do you get this from? ‘
“And it’s just him.”
“He pays attention and he understands that it’s not just about him. If he wanted to take it, ain’t nobody that can stop him. There’s nobody there that can stop him.”
MJF has a number of challengers gunning for him, particularly after last night’s October 18 edition of AEW Dynamite which highlighted Juice Robinson, Jay White and Wardlow chasing for the title.
Also, MJF came face to face with another former world champion and had an ominous warning for him, you can read more about by clicking here.
