MJF‘s long-term future with All Elite Wrestling remains up in the air.
Fightful Select previously reported that the Dynamite Diamond Ring winner was leaning toward not re-signing with the company when his contract is up in 2024. The report noted that MJF wasn’t pleased with his contract situation.
In an update, Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported that he hasn’t heard of a specific contract being offered to MJF. He also wrote “The Salt of the Earth” hasn’t been said to be “angling for anything particular.” Ross also stated that the company has made “overtures” to MJF, hoping to launch contract talks, but these attempts have come empty. The report also cited a source who expressed that AEW president Tony Khan claimed that he would be willing to pay MJF a rate that was comparable to other top stars.
Ross Sapp went on to that MJF isn’t trying to get paid more without an extension because “contracts don’t work like that.” Additionally, the report makes it clear that Fightful hasn’t heard of any attempts by Cody Rhodes to reach out to AEW talent and bring them to WWE.
WrestleZone will provide more information as it becomes available.
