AEW’s vocal world champion MJF, known for his compelling speeches and in-ring abilities, is currently facing scrutiny on social media instead of in the wrestling arena. There has been a lot of talk about his future at the company, especially after his recent contract extension, but it seems like he is fully committed to AEW in the future.
The most important assets of AEW: MJF’s impact and Tony Khan’s qualifications
Since the start, MJF, or Maxwell Jacob Friedman, has been a significant part of the AEW lineup, acknowledged for his intelligence and brutality. Tony Khan, who was in charge of AEW’s expansion, always believed in MJF as an artist and ally. In a recent “Gate” media call, Khan praised MJF’s contributions, calling him the promotion’s “biggest project” and pointing to their professional relationship.
Social media drama: Unspoken and unspoken problems
Despite their professional efforts, cracks began to appear in the Khan-MJF relationship. It has been reported that MJF was upset with certain aspects of his treatment in AEW, especially compared to new talent. However, those concerns appear to have been eased by MJF’s contract extension, which represents a renewed commitment from both sides. However, the recent rise of social media has overshadowed their relationship.
Instagram Events: A Sign of Disillusionment?
The wrestling world was shocked, with those who saw MJF unfollowing Tony Khan on Instagram and Khan doing it. This seemingly innocuous social media activity sparked a firestorm of opinion. Is this just a mistake by MJF or is it a manifestation of his employer’s displeasure?
The reaction of the wrestling world: Criticism of Khan’s book decision
Criticism of Tony Khan’s booking decisions is unheard of, especially regarding a talent like MJF. Independent wrestling reporter Bill Apter recently argued that AEW’s pay might not optimize MJF’s star power, suggesting that matches like MJF vs. Daniel Garcia may not increase MJF’s status against bigger opponents. Controversy arose within the wrestling community over AEW’s strategic direction.

Future Outlook: MJF’s career path is uncertain
As MJF prepares for his upcoming AEW All-In match against Daniel Garcia, the focus is not just on his performance in the ring, but on his connection to the dynamic relationship between AEW and Tony Khan. Will this social media battle affect the way MJF works in and out of AEW? Only time will tell how these behind-the-scenes problems will play out in the tumultuous world of professional wrestling.
