MJF talks about there needing be change, one man in particular called for a "paradigm shift."
MJF says AEW has gone from a revolution to a dictatorship because a guy like Moxley can do whatever he wants and face whoever he wants. MJF admits Moxley is one of the best in the world, but says there's been a lot of negative side effects since Moxley has become champion. MJF says "wrestling" has gone downhill as wrestlers come out and "flip, flop, and fly, until they die." Fans are now brainwashed that those things are what makes a good professional. MJF says he doesn't have to play wrestle though because he's undefeated.
.@The_MJF didn't cross his words when talking about him and the future of AEW.
