MJF believes AEW’s success is directly tied to his run as World Champion, saying the company would be in serious trouble without him. Speaking on TMZ Inside The Ring ahead of his Texas Death Match against Hangman Adam Page at AEW Revolution, the champion was asked about his value to the promotion — and he didn’t hold back.
“We would be fucked if MJF left the territory,” he said. “I am the biggest thing this company has got. Since I won the championship, we are up in every single metric — ticket sales, pay‑per‑view buys, ratings. We are absolutely killing it right now.”
While taking credit for AEW’s momentum, MJF also acknowledged the roster around him as a major factor. He listed names like Hangman Page, Kenny Omega, Swerve Strickland, Samoa Joe, Andrade, Kyle Fletcher, Bandido, Darby Allin, Brody King, Kevin Knight, and “Speedball” Mike Bailey as challengers who elevate the product by chasing his title.
According to MJF, AEW’s current run is producing the best wrestling on television. “Facts, not feelings — we are putting on the best professional wrestling shows in the sport today,” he said. “It’s because we have the best professional wrestlers in the sport today, bar none.”
MJF will be defending the AEW World Championship against Hangman Page in a Texas Death Match at AEW Revolution on March 15 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The match carries major stakes, as Page would be barred from challenging for the title again if he lost.
