It’s too early to even be talking about his contract renewal. :dwillhuh:

If it’s legit, let him go if he doesn’t wanna re-sign. He’s only gonna be watered down in the E. Maybe he can find a way to make it work there, but this is the E we’re talking about, a company that dropped the ball with plenty of talent. :skip:

MJF been saying for at least a year now that he will dip if WWE gives him a higher offer than AEW. Why would he keep saying this if he’s not sure that he’s bouncing? Because if he were to stay he’s basically admitting that Vince doesn’t consider him as high value talent and was more or less left with no other choice but to remain in AEW.

In a relationship, sometimes you can see the writing on the wall. You can try all you want to fix it or make it better, but you know the other person is walking out the door no matter what. MJF made up his mind a while ago. He will ask for his release soon if he hasn’t already, if he’s already had talks with people in WWE regarding his contract as he has hinted at a few times already. If Tony Khan is a man of his word, he will release him as he has said numerous times he doesn’t wanna keep someone who doesn’t wanna be there.

Big deal.. This wrestling shyt is like any other business. Its never perfect. Wrestlers gonna be unhappy, wrestlers will leave and go to WWE, People will leave WWE and go to the WWE and other promotions.

Mofos sound like clowns.. Acting like the sky falling because certain wrestlers leave promotions :russ:

Equivalent of when an NFL player wants an extension after three years of his rookie deal but the team wants to stretch it out and wait.

It's hard for talent to take that "wait until 2024" message seriously from TK when he's : A) the son of a billionaire B) blowing money on nonsense like ROH

MJF saw how the WWE machine made Cody look like a superstar at Wrestlemania and wants some of that.

All the creative freedom in the universe don't matter when the competitor has to ability to max out your salary and the capability to make you a worldwide star with connects to Hollywood.

Cody Rhodes was a WWE creation though. There’s a long list spanning generations of guys jumping to Vince and having their marketability destroyed.

This is a work, them nikkas are in bed with AEW. However, Bruce Prichard was a big advocate of MJF when he worked for MLW. He’s going to bounce because there is no upside to grow his brand. AEW’s audience isn’t growing. Putting a belt on him in the “minor” leagues doesn’t make him a draw. Just facts.
