WWE legend gives his honest opinion on MJF's reported issues with AEW
Former World Heavyweight champion Booker T shared his two cents over the ongoing issues between MJF and AEW.
The controversy started when MJF didn't appear at the AEW Fan Fest meet-and-greet before Double or Nothing. While there were concerns over his availability, he eventually showed up at the pay-per-view but was quickly squashed by arch-rival Wardlow.
After the match, MJF left the venue but stayed in Las Vegas, contrasting reports of his booked flight out of the city. He'll reportedly meet with Tony Khan to discuss his contract situation in the coming days.
During the latest episode of The Hall of Fame podcast, while initially thinking it was a work, Booker straight-up said the differences between the two camps were real:
"I don't know if it's a work or shoot or not, you know. One thing about it, if they are working us, it's a good work, it's a good work. It seems authentic, it seems like it has a real feel to it and that's why I feel like wrestling still can be a...you know, that deal that make people come out to see it, because they don't know all the outcome. They still wanna know, "you know man, how's this thing gonna play out?" They want that thriller ending." (from 14:35 to 15:14)
