MJF asked to be fired and he may have got his wish in kayfabe.
Last night on AEW Dynamite we witnessed one of the best promos of the modern era as the blurs between kayfabe and reality blurred once again. MJF went off in his promo, using real life emotions to help generate the promo he cut. The promo ended with MJF begging to be fired and calling Tony Khan a “fuc*ing mark”.
AEW has removed MJF from their online shop. They also took his name off their online roster page. This was a big step to take for Tony Khan’s company, but it hasn’t been revealed exactly what the company’s official response is after MJF’s pipe bomb.
Time will tell how this story will continue to develop but for now, the lines remain blurred.
