Kris Statlander On MJF
Statlander has been open about her friendship with MJF. During a previous appearance on The Sick Podcast with Andy McNamara, Kris Statlander credited MJF with helping her get the opportunity to work at AEW.
“Because of my great friendships with the people that I trained with at Create A Pro with one person in specific, MJF. He actually, I’m pretty sure is the one that like vouched for me because he had signed right from day one with AEW. And I was a few months into being signed. So, I think he is the one that really got my name in there.”
