MJF became a huge star in AEW in no time, as pro wrestlers ad fans continue to give him a lot of respect for his craft. He considers himself a generational talent and doesn’t care what anyone else has to say. He also doesn’t care about losers from Twitter.

The Salt Of The Earth is truly dedicated to his craft and as such, he is never afraid of pushing the envelope and never broke character. He is quite outspoken and that has led to a lot of controversy over the years.

While speaking to Vulture, MJF talked about his reaction to his blunt honesty in general. MJF stated that he is not seeking validation from losers on Twitter.

“I think the reason why I’m so freaking cool and super-humble and super-rad and super-beloved by everyone that comes across my path is because, right now, we live in an era in 2022 where everybody is terrified to speak their mind.

I think the biggest mistake anybody can make is putting stock in what people have to say that you wouldn’t go to for an opinion. I’m not calling the guy who has an egg profile on Twitter that just tweeted out, ‘Oh, I don’t think I like the way MJF wears his scarfs.’ There’s no part of me that’s like, ‘Damn, I need to call @wetwillie6969 and ask him his opinion on my scarves.’ I think that’s a big issue with my generation. … I just think people love authenticity, and I think the name of the game is authenticity. In a fake world, people want to see real people, and there’s nobody realer than me.”

MJF became the AEW World Champion at Full Gear and is clearly on cloud 9 right now. We will have to wait and see how he will be booked as the champion in the coming months.
