AEW All In: London 2024 marked the end of MJF’s time as AEW American Champion, as well as the end of that star-spangled strap. Now, not only will MJF not be known as the AEW American Champion, but he doesn’t want to be known as an American at all.
On the August 28, edition of AEW Dynamite, a visibly frustrated MJF arrived on the scene and complained about a splitting headache. To chants of “shut the f*** up,” MJF lamented his loss inside Wembley Stadium and claimed he now has herniated discs in his spine.
In stark contrast to his jingoistic title reign, MJF renounced his American citizenship, claiming he wanted nothing to do with “this garbage country.” The only exception MJF made was for his native Long Island, for which his love remains unwavering.
The modern-day Benedict Arnold described the promotion as a “circus” without him at its center, emphasizing his belief that he is the key to AEW’s success. MJF then turned his ire to Will Ospreay, the man who dethroned him and became AEW International Champion at All In: London. The scumbag vowed to screw Ospreay over whenever the Brit gets close to winning the AEW World Championship.
Turning On Your Country
MJF joins a select number of wrestlers to turn their backs on the United States, including Sgt. Slaughter who turned on the U.S. to support Iraq in the Gulf War. Years later, Rob Conway would become a French ‘sympathizer’ and align with La Resistance despite being from Louisville, Kentucky.
Now, MJF has joined their ranks, and the former American already has a match confirmed for AEW All Out next weekend. Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest on MJF and his plans now that he’s left the good ol’ U.S. of A behind.
