AEW World Champion MJF has seen The Undertaker’s comments praising his character and in-ring work.
During a recent “1deadMAN Show” in Glasgow, the WWE Hall of Famer was asked about which current wrestler he would have liked to face in the ring. This led to the Deadman naming MJF. He would later add that AEW is a “second-rate company” that MJF needs to leave ASAP.
MJF took to Twitter to react to ‘Taker’s comments regarding himself, but not his shots at AEW. The Salt of the Earth wrote,
“Not many higher honors than being praised by The Undertaker.
Thanks, Deadman.”
Undertaker was asked what wrestler from today would he most like to wrestle during his 1deadMAN show, and he answered MJF, because he is solid in ring and lives his gimmick.

AEW World Champion MJF Receives Praise from The Undertaker
In the world of professional wrestling, receiving praise from a legend is a significant honor. Recently, AEW World Champion MJF had the privilege of being praised by none other than The Undertaker himself. The Deadman, during a recent event in Glasgow, was asked about which current wrestler he would like to face in the ring. Surprisingly, he named MJF as his desired opponent.
The Undertaker’s comments about MJF were not only about his in-ring skills but also his commitment to his character. The Deadman acknowledged that MJF is solid in the ring and lives his gimmick, which is high praise coming from a wrestling icon like The Undertaker.
However, it’s worth noting that The Undertaker also referred to AEW as a “second-rate company” and suggested that MJF should leave as soon as possible. These comments sparked a reaction from fans and wrestling enthusiasts alike, as it’s rare for a WWE Hall of Famer to acknowledge and comment on talent from a rival promotion.
MJF, known for his quick wit and sharp tongue, took to Twitter to respond to The Undertaker’s comments. While he thanked The Deadman for the praise, he chose not to address the remarks about AEW. This response showcases MJF’s ability to handle criticism with grace and focus on the positive aspects of the situation.

MJF’s rise to prominence in AEW has been impressive. He has captured the AEW World Championship and has proven himself as a formidable competitor. His in-ring abilities, combined with his ability to captivate audiences with his character work, have made him a fan favorite.
While The Undertaker’s comments about AEW may have sparked controversy, they also highlight the growing influence and impact of the promotion. AEW has emerged as a strong competitor to WWE, attracting top talent and delivering high-quality wrestling content. The acknowledgment from a legendary figure like The Undertaker only solidifies AEW’s position in the industry.
