MJF comments on wrestlers jumping ship from AEW to WWE and getting booked worse, says he won't settle for less compensation just because of a WrestleMania moment:“This is where the best wrestle. We’re real premier athletes. We’re not models. We’re not ex-football players or ex-volleyball players or whatever. This is what we’ve wanted to do from the jump. I cannot... God bless people that do it... people will jump to the other place [WWE] to get booked the same and/or worse, to be compensated for less. Why? I don’t know.If the answer is legacy, you know what I want my legacy to be? I want my legacy to be that my children are going to be able to afford to go to any school they want. They’re going to be able to afford to go to any restaurant they want. They’re going to be able to go on vacations. They’re going to be able to wear the nicest clothes. And that’s happening because I get compensated what my talent is worth.I’m not going to settle for less compensation so I get to have a WrestleMania moment. That doesn’t make sense to me. My legacy is my family. My legacy is my wife. My legacy is my children, my grandchildren, etc. My legacy is also what I do inside that squared circle and on this microphone.”
we don't want him
cody, punk, powerhouse hobbs, pillman jr, mariah may, ricky starks and all the others said the same shit
>>20052282mariah may has had a terrible run since coming to wwe her being a e-drone isnt going to shoot her up in the main event
>>20052299her run isn’t any better or worse than aew she’s always sucked it’s just dave stopped giving her stars
>>20052299>mariah may has had a terrible run since coming to wweNo she hasn't?
>>20052327
>>20052299do you actually watch nxt or do you just go off what your aew echo chamber says?funny how no one cared about her "being a e-drone" (gms) the 2 years she was in aew. just like no one cared about royce keys' age until he left aew too
bloke and ricky have been absolute flops after a year in wwe
>>20052274>MJF comments on wrestlers jumping ship from AEW to WWE and getting booked worseAbsolute mark shit to bring up shit like booking instead of just talking about money and leverage
>>20052356do you watch nxt?
>>20052350>It's her fault she got injured and missed a monthShe's back and just won her latest feud which is setting up her to challenge Tatum for her title. She's had more ppv matches in NXT in the last 9 months than she did across her entire AEW run by the way
>>20052371danhausen becoming wwe champion will be a great thing
>>20052374kek yes. i do. which is why i can say that you're just not right about that
>>20052386Danhausen made the move that made him more money so he's smart, that's all there really is to it
>>20052274Nice of MJF to spend his time promoting AEW's ppv this weekend by... talking about WWE?>>20052356>funny how no one cared about her "being a e-drone" (gms) the 2 years she was in aew. just like no one cared about royce keys' age until he left aew tooThat part. It's because they need to look for anything else they can blame it on that absolves Tony and AEW for being unable to retain talent and make AEW look like the appealing option. If Mariah May was such a WWE mark then why did she choose AEW when she left Japan? If Hobbs was too old then how come he was just a champion in AEW before his contract ran out? It's all painfully transparent attempts at character assassination. Happens every time someone leaves the toybox
>>20052378she chose to be in nxt now she's being booked in midcard shit while a clown like danhausen skipped it
>>20052393so if it's about money and leverage than why isnt he wwe champion lol
>>20052410What jeet schizobabble is this?Pretty sure it's not difficult to parse that wherever he is on the card he's gonna be making more in WWE than AEW on merch royalties if not just outright his flat salary. He's increased his stock, shitter though he may be, it was the better move for him.
>>20052274>his legacy
>>20052274He's working, for sure. But it's true. A wrestler's #1 decision was and always should be, the best schedule or the best money. Taking less money for a fake moment is what marks do. None of the greats would've ever done that, ever. Imagine Hogan staying in AWA for less money.
>>20052405She has her entire career in front of her anon. What kind of instant gratification bullshit are you on about. Clearly with the name change and rebrand WWE isn't too worried about what she did or what hype she had in AEW and want to build her up their own wayAnd good for Danhausen
>>20052274BooooringBoooooringBoooring
>>20052503whatever you say wwe shill
>>20052457The ironic part is this is the biggest mark take possible and extremely short sightedIn addition to whatever base line of money someone's signing to WWE for there's also merch money to make on top of it. Be it from shirts, figures, games, etc. There's an exponentially larger number of people buying WWE merch than they are buying AEW's. There are legends contracts down the line that essentially make people free money after they're done wrestling. Which on that note, those "fake moments" you mentioned mean a whole hell of a lot more later on in people's careers. When in-ring careers end and wrestlers are off to the convention scene, who do you think is going to have a longer line? Someone fans remember seeing at Wrestlemania or some guy who maybe made $100,000 more for a few years?
>>20052509you made this entire thread to shill for aew
>>20052547no one cares about wrestlemania in 2020
>>20052566Then what makes you think they care about AEW at all?>70k>45k>22k
>>20052588>this faggot is posting numbers >>20051677
>>20052598Wrestlemania has already sold more tickets for each night than AEW did for All In this year
>>20052588>81k>60k>58k
>>20052623you're a virgin
>>20052361Hobbs is already flopping because he cant even get booked on tv ater having a rumble debut kek
>>20052632Yeah and I bet you think wm32 was 101k right ya mark lmao
>>20052645>Goes from defending wwe numbers to shitting on it
>>20052547This is kind of true, but only applicable if you get to work on top at WM and REALLY elevate your stockCody for example could walk back into AEW and be far-and-away the most paid guy on the rosterHobbs on the other hand is a complete fucking mark for leaving for the prestige of WWE and wanting to make it with a wider audience instead of taking the safer checks when he's not very good and has a low ceiling
>>20052662>>Goes from defending wwe numbersAw sweet new schizo headcanon!
>>20052676Kek this schizo is seething
>>20052690Your monitor's supposed to be on btw
>>20052274lmao this bitch ass mark really thinks that barren hag Atout is going to bear his children??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>20052274>people will jump to the other place [WWE] to get booked the same and/or worse, to be compensated for lessWho? When did people start passively aggressively shooting on people? I feel like it started with Matt Hardy. It's such bitch shit.
>>20052274typical greedy jew. funny thing is of course he isnt worth anything in this business. he just found a sucker that will overpay everybody. but this interview sounds similar to the one tony did not long ago saying he wants to one day give aew to his children
>>20052371Hey retard, you do know that in real sports, booking is an actual thing? You can use kayfabe as being booked against worse/uninteresting opponents. This seems to be a concept that western wrestling as a whole doesn't use at all in its writing, unless certain characters are being used as certain angles, like the monster archetype, the streak holder, jobber going against the top heel as a heel maneuver by a GM, etc.
>>20052274I love how Tony has diversity in his schill ball lickers. Jewish ball lickerBlack ball lickerGoth Twink ball lickerOld announcer ball lickerHomosexual ball lickerThey all say the same thing. "OH IT IS WHERE THE BEST WRESTLE" lol nigga please. AEWTISTS lap that shit up though like a dick in their face.FUCK YOU AEWTISTS!
>>20052424"GAYEW, WHERE THE BEST FAGGOTS DO TANDEM GYMNASTICS FLIPS!!!"That should be their real tagline.
>>20052424why is he always presenting his butthole to Bandido?what's going on?
Everyday there is a new quote from an AEW fag begging for WWE to notice them
>>20052637Isn't that what you AEW people like?
>>20053218arent they already noticing them lol half of their signings are aew
>>20052667That's the thing though. It's easy to say that about Hobbs now because he's just starting there. Granted he's up there in age and may not make it the farthest. But Cody could've returned and ended up right back where he left depending on reactions and shit like that you know? Point being is you have to bet on yourself sooner or later. Even if Hobbs doesn't end up main eventing Mania, which obviously is a long shot, he's at least there and can try and make the most of whatever he can. Even being a midcard champion is more notable than being a world champion in AEW. People won't like that, but it's true
>>20052274Wasn't this guy's entire gimmick about going to WWE for years and how he was above being in AEW?
I don't understand why this always makes e-drones mad, I thought they cared about stories not wrestling?
>>20053465Yeah, he spent years talking about The Bidding War of '24, then Tony put the belt on him and he was completely exposed for how green and shitty he really is. Then he got injured. Then he returned and turned face and he was even worse. WWE doesn't want MJF, so now MJF has to pretend he never wants to go to WWE.
>>20052424This just sucks
>>20053465This. MJF was actually based when he was shitting on Tony to get boos and calling him a money mark and shit. As soon as he came back with that tattoo and became another company shill, his whole schtick died.
>>20053518>>20053595enjoy danhausen lol
>>20053619I'd take Danhausen over Hangfag and current boring MJF any day. Sorry if you have to pretend that it's a bad thing because Tony fumbled him
Mjf is right. Ricky & Maria should be paid for putting aew out of business.
>>20053632>Sorry if you have to pretend that it's a bad thing because Tony fumbled himyeah dude im sure you would love sonny kiss since he was in aew back then
>>20053465Yes that gimmick ended 2 whole years ago when he re-signed, they can't exactly do it a second time because he re-signed for like a bajillion years
Hhh is as big as a wrestling nerd as Tony. Hhh luvs his toys from Tony.
>>20053666Sonny would be over as fuck in vinces wwe
>>20052274>MJF comments on
>>20053666No but I'm 100% sure you defended Tony booking him just like you defended Danhausen until he showed up in WWE
>>20053632Dan whatever sucks, & is part of what is ruining wwe. Hang & mjf need coaching & could b great IC champs.
>>20053684you're retarded
>>20053681Atleast he's sticking up for aew. In aew the wrestlers actually work hard & aren't 50yrs old. Go pay tko $500 to watch a shitty ppv
>>20053692MJF sure. Hangfag nah. I'd put both of the Motor city machine guns over him and they can barely get on the show. His best bet would be latching onto to someone as a mediocre tag team. No way in hell is he getting over in WWE with his leftist pandering no charisma overly verbose for no reason promos
>>20052274>a WrestleMania moment>Muh allure of WrestleMania
>>20053699Concession accepted. Say something bad about a current AEW wrestler to prove me wrong.
>>20053711>he's posting crowd shots from the covid era againThis is when everyone can tell you lost the argument and are just being disingenuous for the sake of being disingenuous
>>20053708Hang would have to get into much better shape for wwe. But he has found a following. If he's over 6' I think hhh would put the mid card nxt belt on him.
>>20053713Aew wrestlers work way too hard & try too many crazy things to entertain fans.
>>20053713>Say something bad about a current AEW wrestler to prove me wrong.ok uhhhhh? harley cameron sucks
>>20052274>jew chooses the moneyin other news, water is wet
>>20053749You must be an altruist. Tell me more?
>>20053668So his gimmick was>I'm too good for AEW>I'm going to WWE instead>But wait I'm not actually going to WWE>I guess I'll just settle for AEWReally showed em on that one
>>20053762No, his gimmick is that he's an emotionally insecure homo.
>>20052274the only people who say shit like this are the ones not getting the call>>20053465kek i was just about to point this out. it sure was. only mr. bidding war never actually had anyone biting. there was more of a bidding war over mariah may
>>20052939we dont talk about that fake shit here bitch
>>20053800>the only people who say shit like this are the ones not getting the callif wwe signed will hobbs without knowing what he done in aew they would sign mjf in a quick second
>>20053753I believe in the altruistic principle of putting rich jews in the gas chamber to make the world a better place
>>20053619enjoy face humping lol
>>20053825and yet
>>20053848dat port
>>20052274Why are AEW wrestlers so insecure?
>>20052361They've both been champions on a show that's more popular than AEW.
>>20053872so is their fanbase. So is their shills like Meltzer. It's a trickle-down insecurity starting at the top from Tony. He presents himself and the company that way and they all parrot his behavior
>>20052274I love how all these wrestlers are coming out defending AEW and it all boils down to:>"The Money Mark pays me too much to go to WWE."I think they also realize that they're just not good enough to be a WWE Main Eventer
>>20053872Chronic lil bro syndrome. Starts at the top with Tony, trickles down through the talent, and goes all the way down to the fans. It's what the entire promotion was built on and the exact audience it caters to. From day one when they had Cody smashing that throne they made sure you knew that they were fighting upwards against WWE, positioning themselves below them. They could've just done their own thing and had their own shows, but they just HAD to let you know what the pecking order was. And it became a self fulfilling prophecy
>>20053884>>20053963They can NEVER just promote their own stuff. Ospreay, Swerve, MJF, they can never stop talking about WWE. And whenever somebody decides to leave to go to WWE, their fans hound them like when somebody leaves Scientology. They went from loving Blake Monroe to driving her to tears because she had the nerve to get her dream job after being the best part of TNA for a couple years.
>>20053963I mean, you have to be bold in order to compete. They really lose nothing besides looking pathetic to smarks; it's the same thing with ECW ranting about WCW/WWF poaching talent, spoiling results or saying their PPVs sucked.
>>20054014There's a difference between being bold and making your show about the place you're competing with. The latter has always backfiredVince tried it with his Turner bits and those floppedWCW spoiling WWF's results bit them in the ass in a huge wayLook at TNA. They spent so fucking long lil bro'ing themselves to WWE and it just cemented their place more and more each timeECW talking about WCW and WWF taking their talent was a shoot though. That wasn't them making the show about those places. That was them addressing actual shit that was happening behind the scenes
>>20054056>NJPW talks about AEW taking all their talent and ruining the company, but it's just a work and they're not going to do anything to stop it
>>20053809I wasn't referring to your love life lil bro.
>>20053986>to driving her to tearsThe funny part about that which actually proves your point is I've watched that video and that isn't even what she cries over. She starts talking about her journey of moving countries and leaving her life at home behind and how far she's come since she was just a fan and blah blah blah and it overwhelms her. That's all. After she cries for a second she gets into how she feels she has to be careful because of people who pick apart what she says. To your point those exact people do just that and twisted her shit to fit their narrative because they are still mad she left
>>20054074Fuck. That's a hell of an accurate comparison. If only it was a work because yeah NJPW has been fucked by that whole partnership
>>20052274>my legacy is that a nepo baby overpays me far more than I'm worthWhat a legacy
>>20052424Why does it look so bad compared to when mexicans do this shit? How does he come across as so wooden?
>>20052274So basically a not so subtle way of saying he's gone if WWE pays him more.
>>20054959WWE can't even pay their own Mania and have to cut ticket prices, it'll never happen lil bro. Dub gods win again. Another victory for the good guys.
>>20055291Sure about that one?
>>20055298yes WWE is so culturally irrelevant now and its popularity has plunged to such low levels that the only way to make money is to fleece their retarded super fans.
