The wrestling business is currently booming. WWE is setting records almost every week, shattering attendance and gate records at every show. Meanwhile, rival company AEW is about to host one of the biggest events in the industry’s history, All In. Recently, MJF spoke about how the wrestlers perceive this fan-created rivalry.

The 27-year-old was a guest on the SiriusXM Busted Open podcast show. First, he pointed out how fans from both sides communicate online and argue against each other. MJF basically debunked any sort of war between the wrestlers. On the contrary, he revealed that the superstars are supportive of one another and watch their shows.

Furthermore, he claimed that he’s currently having a blast watching the likes of Cody Rhodes and LA Knight in WWE.

Adam Cole and MJF have been part of one of the most intriguing storylines in AEW history. The “Better Than You, Bay-Bay” pair will not only face each other in the main event but also team up on the Zero Hour show at All In. They will battle against the Aussie Open for the Ring of Honor (ROH) Tag Team Championships.

Previously, Cole and MJF failed to capture the AEW titles against FTR on the July 29 edition of Collision. Despite being put together as a team via a random draw, they have turned into best friends on screen. The Devil gave a title shot to the former NXT superstar by confirming the main event of All In in the process.

The promotion has decided to take advantage of the popular story by placing it on Zero Hour as well. However, fans believe that the upcoming event will see the tag team implode. Moreover, Adam Cole has been rumored to betray his friend, MJF. Therefore, it will be interesting to see how the dynamics play out this Sunday.
