On a recent edition of “The Michael Kay Show” podcast, Cody Rhodes praised MJF, noting that the reigning AEW World Champion will compete in WWE one day.
Rhodes said, “I think one day you will see MJF in WWE. I’m really proud of him. For those that don’t know, MJF was one of my recruits and probably the one I’m most excited about because of potential and personality and overall professionalism. One thing I’m proud of him for doing is, if you notice, he’s put on a lot of muscle and he’s put it on safely over the last year and a half.”
He continued, “When he does make that jump, I don’t know when that is, if he makes the jump. If he comes to WWE, you have to stand across from guys like Drew McIntyre, like Omos, Brock Lesnar. I’m not shaming anyone who is not hitting the gym and clanging and banging with the weights, like The Rock would say, but it is part of what we do now. You have to be able to swing a bat with the big boys. Watching him grow physically, it seems like maybe he knows where his future lies. Really, your guess is as good as mine. I never bother him about it because I want to remain the friends we’ve become today.”
MJF has spent much of his AEW run teasing a potential move to WWE as part of his cocky character.
However, rumors suggest that MJF quietly re-signed with AEW after he stepped away for several months after Double or Nothing 2022, and he hasn’t brought up “the bidding war of 2024” as much since turning babyface this past summer.
