The AEW World Championship will be on the line when MJF faces off against Jon Moxley at Full Gear on November 19.
In spite of the fact that MJF is a heel, he has been receiving cheers throughout the build-up to the match. In a recent interview, Dustin Rhodes shared that he has discussed the possibility of MJF becoming a babyface with him.
“MJF also delivers, right? But he’s just on the cusp of his greatness and he’s doing so many great things right now and the heel-babyface-tweener back and forth, they hated him, they kind of love him. You know, and I’ve talked to MJF about this. ‘Sooner or later, you’re gonna be a babyface buddy’ and it looks like that’s kind of where it’s going because they love him and it’s just what it is and MJF hasn’t had to go out there and wrestle every night. He has got the gift of gab and he’s one of those people that can talk people in the building and there’s not very many of those and he does a great job of that,” Rhodes said on the Sports Guys Talking Wrestling podcast.
