Adam Copeland says confidence is what separates MJF from other top talent.
The AEW World Champion is one of the top stars in the industry and has now crossed into the threshold of being the longest reigning champion in the company. Now, he’s a babyface and has become one of the most over stars in the company.
Appearing on The Drop on NHL on ESPN, recent AEW signee Adam Copeland addressed why MJF is different to other top stars in the industry.
“His confidence. You can do so much with confidence. You can make people believe with confidence. You can make people feel with confidence. Whatever feeling it is that you want to pull out of people. More than anything, that to me, is the key with him. He has supreme confidence with the microphone and he looks confident in the ring. Confidence translates, it really does. When you can tell someone is having fun doing what they’re doing, whether it’s poking the bear or whether it’s he’s everybody’s scumbag. Whatever that it, to me, it starts with confidence. That’s with any performer. Max has confidence and that’s honestly the first step. That can take ages for people and that can never happen for some people. I don’t think I fully felt comfortable until about 2005 is where I really started feeling my groove and my confidence and really come together. That’s when I started main eventing,”

MJF is scheduled to defend the AEW World Title on tonight’s edition of AEW Dynamite against Daniel Garcia.
