Since leaving WWE after WrestleMania 39, Shane McMahon has maintained a low profile in the wrestling world. However, recent rumors about him potentially joining AEW have gained traction, especially following a notable meeting between McMahon and AEW CEO Tony Khan. Amidst this speculation, MJF has revealed his true feelings about the possibility of Shane McMahon joining AEW.
On July 29, 2024, Khan and McMahon held private meeting at an office in Arlington airport. This was their first direct discussion, despite Khan’s previous interest in connecting with McMahon. The meeting reportedly focused on exploring potential collaborative opportunities, which has led to rumors about McMahon’s possible future role in AEW.
While speaking to WrestleTalk, MJF was asked about Shane McMahon and Tony Khan meeting last month. Regarding his true feelings, The Salt of the Earth stated that he believes Shane McMahon is a megastar and that he would be a great addition to AEW.
“Now if he wants to come in, I genuinely think he’s a mega star. I think that’d be freaking great. It’d be huge for the fans, and it’d be huge for AEW.
Tony Khan has also stated that Shane McMahon is very smart about wrestling after their recent meeting. Internally, WWE also expects Shane McMahon to appear on AEW programming at least once. Nonetheless, it remains to be seen whether McMahon will end up joining AEW eventually.
