I actually think MJF would be a star if he went to the Fed. Vince does not like people who won't fight back, and I can see MJF having an HBK type attitude with Vince arguing with him and not kissing his ass (assuming Vince is alive and hasn't sold WWE by then.) MJF to me is the modern version of Roddy Piper. He's not the greatest in the ring but I don't think there's a way you can hold him down, even when he has bad angles. You give that kid a microphone and he will get back over. If I were Tony Khan, I would have given MJF the belt already instead of the mid Hangman Page reign, as I think MJF has a good chance of helping them grow their brand as he is super hateable and he will draw a reaction out of even casual fans in the right angle. Plus he's looked at like an AEW original that never really shined anywhere else, again helping to grow the brand. But they don't book like that

MJF not da only one. I can see Mox going back for big $$$ and security for his wife n kid, work a program with his dawg Roman, Sammy n Jade…..it’s gettin spooky in AEW. It ain’t wrestling Shangra La like they stans think,
I don't see mox going back as he seems to be way more content with the freedom he has in AEW like working in bingo halls and doing deathmatches but I could definitely see them getting Jade if they allow her to keep her 3rd party deals like they did with Cody and don't get weird about "family". Basically most people who have had a close connection with Cody either through the Nightmare Factory or something else I could easily see joining him there. Julia, Anna, Ricky Starks, Lee Johnson.. not huge names in the spectrum of AEW but I could see them flourishing in WWE

People in another thread were debating me that MIZ is a better promo than MJF. So where is his value then, because it's not in being big muscle guy...

He should stay in AEW, i'ts perfect for him. This is all probably a work anyways, not even to work Khan into more money, just a work Khan and him agreed to, to generate him more buzz...

I could see both angles but if we're operating in the real world and not the mark world and I'm outperforming my current contract, I should be able to go to my boss and get a raise without extending time of service. That can and does happen all the time.

You won't pay me what I'm currently worth, you're hiding the raise behind an extension that keeps me from getting what the market actually says I'm worth, and you won't release me so I can test market value. So how is MJF supposed to come out on top?
