MJF Hits Back at Andrade With Divorce Reference After Targeting His Relationship

Things escalated fast between Andrade El Idolo and AEW World Champion MJF — and the shots didn’t stay strictly about wrestling.

On January 24, 2026, AEW posted footage from AEW Collision showing Andrade making it clear he has his sights set on the company’s top prize. The official AEW twitter account framed the moment with a direct message about his goal.

@AndradeElIdolo makes his intentions crystal clear, he wants the #AEW World Championship. Standing in his way? Former champion @swerveconfident!

That brought an immediate response from the reigning champion. MJF jumped into the replies with a dismissive jab.

“This chump better be talking about a different AEW World Championship.”

Andrade fired back, and he didn’t just keep it about the belt. He aimed directly at MJF’s personal life while doubling down on his championship intentions.

“Idiota!! I'm talking about your championship. Now that I'm going to be the next champion, you'll thank me because you'll be able to go on your honeymoon. Your wife deserves it, give her the respect she deserves! You need to be a man!! #Macho #Galan like me.”

The honeymoon line wasn’t random. MJF’s wife, Alicia Atout, has previously posted on social media about the fact that they still haven’t taken their honeymoon, which made Andrade’s comment feel targeted rather than generic trash talk. MJF responded with a short line that carried far more weight than it appeared on the surface.

“You sure you wanna bring up marriage, Hombre?”

That comment ties directly to Andrade’s real-life history. Andrade was previously married to Charlotte Flair, and their divorce became public in early 2025. Years earlier, Andrade left AEW to return to WWE while Charlotte was still with the company. After the divorce and his eventual WWE exit, Andrade returned to AEW — making MJF’s response a deliberate personal reference rather than a throwaway insult.

What started as a championship tease quickly turned into a deeply personal exchange, blending storyline tension with real-life history. Andrade is publicly declaring his goal, and MJF is already making it clear he’s not taking him lightly — or respectfully. If this is where things are at on social media, the first in-ring confrontation between them is going to carry a very different kind of tension.
