MJF reflects on AEW Full Gear injuries.
MJF walked into AEW Ful gear and his AEW World Title defense against Jay White banged up, and as the match progressed, things didn't get any better for him.
"I didn’t know. So in the Jay White match, I hit an elbow drop from the top rope to the floor because I was trying to impress people that I thought cared about me. Later on, I found out they didn’t. My hip popped out its socket. Because I thought those people cared about me, I fought through it for I think another 20 minutes, maybe, and then not long after that, Jay White, who is a hell of a professional wrestler, I beat him, but that’s neither here nor there, he’s a hell of a professional wrestler, he hit me with a Urinagi off the top rope, and I landed directly on my left shoulder, and my labrum just snapped entirely in half. So the left part of my body was just thrashed. Then when I got to the back, I was just crying. I’ve literally not cried like that in my entire life. I was just bawling my fucking eyes out because the adrenaline dump wore off. It was the most pain I’d ever been in in my entire life. Then somebody tells me you need to do a press conference and I go, ‘Oh, I love the wrestling fans. I’ll do a press conference, and I’ll fight through these tears.’ Once again, wrestling fans showed me they don’t care about me. They made memes about it, they thought it was funny. Hands down, the most pain I’ve ever been in, and nobody cared," he said on Casual Conversations.
