AEW's MJF Continues Teasing WWE Jump

MJF is becoming a master of hyping himself up; AEW > WWE leap incoming someday?

MJF is still refusing to rule out a stunning move to WWE once his AEW deal expires.

The outspoken heel, who meets CM Punk in a 'Dog Collar' showdown at Revolution 2022 this Sunday, told 'Wrestling With Freddie' that "there's talk of a bidding war" when his All Elite contract runs out in 2024. Obviously, MJF is having a giggle by fanning the flames and playing with wrestling fans on social media, but he's probably not wrong.

Rather hilariously, Friedman also said that "FOX execs" are "thirsty for daddy" and that he plans to play both sides against one another to get the best deal possible for himself. Ooft.

In an interesting moment, MJF added that some AEW wrestlers could've already jumped over to Vince McMahon's company by the time 2024 rolls around. He didn't name names, or even guess who, but that's likely accurate - someone is gonna' be the first. Cody Rhodes seems the most plausible, but he won't be the last.

Would you like to see MJF leave Tony Khan's league for WWE? Or, do you think he should stay put in AEW for good?
