MJF was in no mood to talk during the „Hey! (EW)” interview with RJ City. The AEW World Champion only lasted a few minutes before walking away from the conversation. However, he ensured that his appearance would go down in history as one of the show’s most memorable moments, as it culminated in him burning a sign.
Although there wasn’t much in the way of dialogue, MJF revealed that he accepted the interview so that people could learn more about the man behind the character. He explained that he only insulted people when he was working, and added that he was a big fan of Citi’s work. City, meanwhile, tried to insult the player throughout their brief conversation, but MJF remained polite for the most part – at least until he left after burning the sign.
MJF’s interview antics suggest that he and Chitty won’t be best friends anytime soon; However, her relationship with Adam Cole seems to be blossoming. The pair were drawn as partners in a Blind Eliminator tag team match and picked up their first win on the July 5 edition of „AEW Dynamite”. How long their alliance will last remains to be seen, but for now they are on good terms.
As of this writing, MJF is enjoying his first reign as AEW World Champion. Cole, meanwhile, has had his sights set on the prize for weeks now, and it seems only a matter of time until he gets another shot at it.
