AEW star MJF recently spoke with Notsam Wrestling podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling. During the discussion, MJF comments on which WWE star he loves and his goals in wrestling:
Baron Corbin:
“I love Happy Corbin. I just think it’s mutual respect. Like I said, and I’ve said it in interviews constantly, if you are not watching every product out there available, then you can’t be the best version of yourself and then you won’t make the most amount of money. Corbin is a guy that understands that. So he watched my product. He saw me. I watched his product. I saw him, and we both went. Yep. That guy gets it. It’s just that simple.”
His goals in professional wrestling:
“It’s always been about money. It’s not a friend business. It’s show business. It’s business. It’s a pro wrestling business. It’s also a sport. Don’t get me wrong. But within that sport, there’s a business. My goal has always been to make the most amount of money to then use that to transcend and enter into the Hollywood sphere, and then literally leave all of my fans in the dust and pretend I never knew they existed in the first place.”
