At least MJF has some kind words to say about one New Japan star.
During his AEW Double or Nothing media scrum, MJF was asked who he would want to face at Forbidden Door. MJF referred to New Japan Pro-Wrestling as an “indy fed” and said he didn’t really want to compete on the show. Despite his feelings about the company, he did say Great O-Khan was someone he liked.
“Do I have to wrestle at Forbidden Door? F*ck that! Oh God, it’s a f*cking indy fed, dude. I don’t know, man. Jesus Christ! Look, with all due respect…with all due respect. Their greatest legend probably couldn’t lace my boots. I think I would make anybody on that roster look silly, and I don’t want to waste my time. I’m a very busy man. There’s your answer. I think New Japan Pro-Wrestling sucks. Except that Great O-Khan guy, he f*cking pops me; I like him. But everybody else there’s the drizzling shits. I don’t know. It reminds me of just like a local indy fed.”
MJF retained his title in a Four Pillars match at AEW Double Or Nothing. Check out full results from the event here.
