MJF considers himself a generational talent, and he clearly has many ways to back up his claims as his stock continues to rise every week. He is the AEW World Champion and remains a focus on AEW television every week. That said, some believe AEW has been overexposing him lately.

The Salt of The Earth used to be the biggest heel in all of AEW but through his friendship with Adam Cole over the past several months, MJF has turned new leaf and displayed a side of him that fans never imagined was possible.

While speaking on the Keeping It 100 podcast, pro wrestling legend Konnan talked about MFJ’s current run in AEW. Konnan stated that he believes AEW has been giving far too much exposure to MJF, which is detrimental.

Being in five different feuds is mega exposure, you should want to wait to see him,” Konnan stated. “He should come out once, maybe twice a show, that is it.

Konnan continued, “You do not need to be an expert to see that the most charismatic, most over, one of the biggest merch sellers, and great on the mic and good to great matches is him. You can’t put the company problems on him, he’s doing his part.”

MJF is set to defend his AEW World Championship against Jay White at the Full Gear pay-per-view this month. It remains to be seen how the match will turn out, as fans want MJF to successfully retain the title.
