MJF Admits This WWE Legend Is The Greatest Of All Time
MJF recently inserted himself into a discussion on X.
While sharing an old video featuring ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, a user claimed that watching The Rattlesnake wrestle was like watching paint dry.
Another user chimed in by calling Austin a great worker. He said that being signed with ECW flipped a switch inside him that turned him into a ball of chaos, the energy that he later brought to WWE.
The conversation evidently caught the attention of AEW World Champion MJF, who said that when people discuss who the greatest wrestler of all time is, Austin’s name should be mentioned, after his, of course.
In my opinion.
After me of course.
When people talk about the greatest of all time.
They should be saying Steve Austin.

Steve Austin debuted in the Stamford promotion in 1996 and competed until recurring neck issues forced him to retire in 2003.
During his stint, he became a 6-time World Champion and also held the tag team and Intercontinental Championships multiple times.
MJF Scheduled To Defend His Championship On AEW Dynamite
MJF stunned wrestling fans after winning the 4-way match at Worlds End, thus becoming a 2-time AEW World Champion.
On Wednesday, he will defend his title against Bandido.
The two wrestlers came face-to-face on last week’s Dynamite taping after Bandido’s match against Sammy Guevara.
After a brief verbal exchange, the champion hit a low blow on the challenger. Bandido soon retaliated and hit Friedman with his 21-plex finisher.
Recently, the masked luchador shared a video of himself training for the upcoming title match.
MJF reposted the message on his social media and predicted that he would beat him in 1.5 minutes.
