MJF gives his take on the back and forth between AEW and WWE.
Going into and coming out of the recent head-to-head between AEW and WWE, there was a great deal of back and forth between both sides. MJF recently gave his take on the situation during his appearance on Barstool’s ‘Rasslin show.
MJF said that WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns lost in the key demo to Ruby Soho and The Bunny’s match on Rampage. He went on to add that despite that, he thinks Reigns is a great performer and won’t go out of his way to trash talk Reigns or WWE’s product because he might work there one day.
I’m seeing all this chitter chatter of people in the other company talking smack, people in my company talking smack.
Roman Reigns lost in the key demographic to Ruby Soho and Ruby Soho sucks. So, I don’t know what to tell you. Now, don’t get me wrong, that’s not me sh*tting on Roman Reigns. I think Roman Reigns is a hell of a performer. He really is. I think he’s absolutely incredible. Am I better than him on the mic and in the ring? Yeah, but I’m not gonna go out of my way to talk sh*t about him because I respect him, I respect what he does, I respect the hard work that goes [into] putting out that product that is WWE and again, someday I might work there. Yeah, and I’m also sure if he sees this, he’ll pretend he doesn’t know who I am because that’s what they do over there when in reality I know that they’re all watching our stuff and again, cannot stress this enough, huge fan of Roman Reigns, think he’s great. Would love to work with him one day.
