Tony Khan says it means a lot to have MJF in AEW.
MJF has grown into one of AEW's top stars since he arrived in the company in 2019. After a lengthy run as the AEW World Champion, he missed several months as he dealt with injuries following AEW Worlds End. MJF returned at AEW Double or Nothing and made it clear that he was all in with AEW.
Speaking with Scott Fishman of TV Insider, Tony Khan was asked to comment on what it meant to have MJF back and committed long-term to AEW.
What does it mean to him back in the fold and commit long-term to AEW?
"It’s really great. It means a lot to have MJF in AEW. He has been a great world champion and one of our biggest stars. Having MJF on Wednesday nights every week on TBS is a big deal. He was in an altercation with Rush last week. One of our top international stars and a brutal pro wrestler. Rush will be in action tonight surely beating the hell out of some poor kid from Iowa. I know MJF will be in the arena tonight, so something to keep an eye on. MJF is one of our greatest stars. We’re happy to have MJF back in AEW I believe permanently," Khan said.
