At Sunday night’s AEW All Out pay-per-view event, MJF made his return to the company.
During the post-All Out media scrum, AEW President Tony Khan commented on his decision to bring back the “Salt of the Earth.”
The last time we saw MJF was on an episode of AEW Dynamite following the Double or Nothing pay-per-view event, where he cut a promo telling Khan to “fire” him.
Khan said,
“I’m the one who asked him to come back. Because MJF’s a big star in this company, and this is one of the biggest events. A year ago, CM Punk debuted here, and I thought it was right for the fans … For the fans, I thought the best that would do as a company was bring MJF back.”
CM Punk took a shot at MJF during the media scrum, saying that he’s “tired of wrestling these kids that think they know everything, but I’m not the boss. Max likes to s**t where he eats instead of watering the grass.”
