Konnan Praises MJF, Rey Mysterio & Dominik For Maintaining Kayfabe

On a recent episode of his K100 podcast, Konnan commended a few wrestling stars who are working relentlessly to maintain kayfabe off-camera.

Konnan named AEW’s MJF as well as WWE’s Rey Mysterio and his son Dominik Mysterio as prime examples of his preferred engagement with the portrayal of kayfabe in wrestling.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On who he sees as still holding to the tradition of lving the performance: “Today, Teddy Hart. 1000%. Juventud, 1000%. Just nobody lives the gimmick. There is no kayfabe. That’s why I like MJF, because he does do old-school kayfabe.”

On how the Mysterios are keeping their own kayfabe active: “I’ll give you an example. I was talking to Rey Mysterio the other day, and he was driving alone. I go, ‘Why aren’t you driving with Dom?’ He goes, ‘Cause we’re kayfabing people.’ I go, ‘That’s excellent.’ But most people don’t kayfabe. They take pictures together. ‘That was a great match last night, I really respect you.’ Or they’re eating together. And I’m like, ‘dude.’ There is something to kayfabe.”
