AEW World Champion MJF believes fans do not understand the risks of performing in the ring
Fans have seen MJF put on some great work over the past couple of years. He has consistently claimed that he is mainly interested in the money and lifestyle sports entertainment can provide him.
In his now-deleted tweet, The Salt of the Earth mentioned that fans did not understand the risks of performing in the ring. He wrote that any move in the ring could end their careers or even paralyze them.
"The more wrestling fans become blood thirsty for these dangerous feats in the ring. The more the wrestlers will hurt themselves trying to curry fans favor. The fans don't understand that at any given point we can be paralyzed from the neck down or even die from a maneuver as simple as a body slam."
He added that every move in the ring hurts and that putting on "bangers" did not help pay medical bills.
"By the way fans reading this, bodyslams hurt, every move hurts. They will keep moving the goal post of what they deem is "good". So before you do something stupid. Consider this, there tweet about your "banger" gonna pay for your medical bills? Do the right thing. Go in that ring with the intention of winning the match and leaving the ring the same way you entered it. Get the winners purse and get out," he wrote.
The AEW World Champion's words hold a lot of value as he is one of the top stars in the industry. Fans should understand that wrestlers go through a lot to put on the best show in the ring each time.
