Wardlow has been on a roll for the past few months, largely due to him getting over with fans. Mr. Mayhem has what it takes to make it big in the business, and AEW had initially capitalized on that until they didn’t anymore.
MJF and Wardlow were involved in a huge feud that truly became one of the biggest talking points in the company. This was mostly due to fans wondering if MJF would actually work the match. Wardlow defeated MJF in a huge way as he squashed him at AEW Double Or Nothing.
MJF truly put over Wardlow, but AEW has not been able to book Wardlow as well as they should have. While speaking on the Dynamite Download podcast. Wardlow blasted MJF for being a wholeheartedly terrible person.
“Aw, f*ckin’ Max. So, you know, I’m man enough to admit that Max is very good at what he does, clearly. It doesn’t take away from the fact that he is truly, wholeheartedly, a piece of sh*t. People really have no idea, like people have no clue. For the people that think it’s like, ‘Oh, he never turns it off. He’s just really good at his gimmick.’ No, it doesn’t turn off because it’s who he is. And then the people that are like, ‘Oh no, no no…’ They’re so blind, they’re so stupid, dude. [laughs]”
Wardlow even recently stated that his match against MJF was ruined because of backstage drama. We will have to wait and see how AEw will keep on booking Wardlow as the TNT Champion in the coming weeks.
