MJF and Seth Rollins (via AEW & WWE)
Luka Doncic has been the talk of the town since his shocking trade to the Lakers. Many personalities have weighed in on the move, including former WWE Champion Seth Rollins. The Visionary took a jab at AEW while discussing the trade, referencing the popularity of MJF. In response, The Salt of the Earth has now fired back at Rollins’ remarks.
Taking to X, MJF sarcastically questioned his fans, asking, “Who is Luka Doncic?” His response was a direct jab at Rollins’ comparison, downplaying the NBA star’s significance. He further joked about whether the five-time NBA All-Star was an indie wrestler, reinforcing his trademark arrogance. The remark served as a reminder that the former AEW International Champion remains unfazed by anything outside his own business.

The Visionary implied that no trade in AEW holds the same significance as the Doncic-Lakers deal. Rollins is known for making bold statements, and this one has clearly caught the attention of the former AEW World Champion. That said, there’s a strong chance that Friedman could fire back with a shot at WWE and The Architect during his next appearance on AEW Dynamite.

Indie guy?
Moreover, MJF is well-known for his outspoken stance against WWE. Months ago, the former AEW World Champion went viral for tossing a WWE Universal Championship replica during a fan meet-up. While many fans speculate that he could join WWE in the future, such actions cast serious doubt on his actual interest in making the jump.
MJF comments on mentioning Cody Rhodes during his AEW promo
During the February 5th edition of AEW Dynamite, MJF engaged in a heated confrontation with Dustin Rhodes, unleashing a relentless verbal assault on the veteran star. However, the moment that stirred the most controversy came at the end of the promo when MJF mentioned Cody Rhodes by name on AEW television, igniting debate among fans.

Taking to X, MJF stated that he refuses to live in a bubble where the world outside wrestling doesn’t exist. He acknowledged The American Nightmare as a mentor during his early career and admitted that he can’t ignore Rhodes’ success on the other side. As a result, he mentioned Cody on AEW Dynamite without hesitation.
His brother. My mentor. A guy who helped shape me early on in my career. Your old boss brainwashed you into believing we need to treat the fans like morons and pretend other Wrestling companies don’t exist You dumb ignorant bald grifting fuck. …respectfully.

In professional wrestling, mentioning rival promotions is often avoided, making MJF’s reference to Cody Rhodes a bold move. However, the former AEW World Champion appears unfazed by criticism, staying true to his persona and doing things his way, regardless of what others think.
