MJF made his shocking return at Double or Nothing back in May and in the months since then, he has automatically established himself as one of the top stars again. With that said, he has now defended AEW’s ‘Where the Best Wrestle’ tagline.

One of AEW’s selling points is undoubtedly the in-ring product, as the company boasts of having some of the best professional wrestlers in the world, which is why AEW’s current tagline is ‘Where the Best Wrestle.’

While speaking to Cultaholic, MJF talked about his harsh comments about other wrestlers, saying that despite the criticism, he truly believes AEW is the best wrestling promotion. He thinks the slogan “Where the Best Wrestle” is more than just words—it’s true because of the amazing talent in AEW.

“Look, I talk a lot of sh*t. It’s what I do, but at the end of the day I don’t think ‘Where the Best Wrestle’ is just a catchphrase. I think its the truth. I think we have just an insane amount of talent bell to bell. On the microphone, a different discussion. I think that’s why I stand out more than everybody else because everybody else sounds like a bumbling idiot, with all due respect.

MJF mentioned that, while he stands out for his mic skills, many others might not be as strong in that area. He listed several top wrestlers in AEW, like Bryan Danielson, Chris Jericho, Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, MJF, Okada, Malakai Black, and Brody King. He’s also looking forward to Will Hobbs returning when he’s healthy.

Although he might not mention everyone, he believes AEW has a lot of great talent. He expected some wrestlers like Christian Cage, Adam Copeland, Dax Harwood, Cash Wheeler, The Acclaimed, and The Young Bucks might feel left out, but he thinks the roster is full of incredible wrestlers.

“When you look at our roster, Bryan Danielson, Chris Jericho, Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, MJF, Okada, Malakai Black, Brody King, Jesus Christ I’m excited for Will Hobbs to come back when he’s healthy. I don’t want to say Will Ospreay but some people like him. Kyle Fletcher just proved a point I feel. Daniel Garcia, I think he’s dead but he seemed like he was okay at wrestling. It’s unfortunate that Will wouldn’t help him in that situation, it’s just really sad. 

“But yeah, we have some incredible talent and I’m sure I’m going to get sh*t for not mentioning every single person and they’re going to be, like ‘Why didn’t you say me?’ I’m sure Christian Cage is going to send me a text – so Christian Cage, Adam Copeland, Dax Harwood, Cash Wheeler, The Acclaimed, The Young Bucks, should I just sit here and name the whole roster?”

MJF also admitted that he still has not fully recovered after returning earlier this year. Regardless, MJF will always stand by his company as one of its flag bearers, and that’s unlikely to change anytime soon.
