MJF has always been an outspoken person. The current AEW American Champion recently made a controversial comment in which he hinted at what exactly happened between him and Britt Baker. This statement was in reference to Britt Baker’s suspension and what happened backstage during that time. As you know, the two superstars were really hot for each other. Britt Baker was the one who initiated the confrontation. Baker said some negative things about MJF and the statements reached MJF since his girlfriend was present in the locker room. A heated argument then broke out between the trio.
In an interview with Cultaholic Wrestling, the AEW American Champion refuted claims that suggested things got heated during the confrontation. MJF questioned the validity of claims that suggested he threatened a 110-pound female wrestler by squashing her against the wall.

MJF even joked that the pressure he applied to Baker would have hurt the wall rather than the wrestler herself. He later admitted that the above story is not entirely true. If this story were true, the AEW star would have to face harsh consequences for his actions, as seen in the case of CM Punk.

MJF explained in an interview with Cultaholic Wrestling: “He says, ‘Tell me if this passes the smell test. I burst into a woman’s locker room, scream in a 100-pound woman’s face, and physically threaten her by punishing the wall near her. And I don’t get suspended. Does this pass the smell test for you? Almost everything that was written didn’t happen.'”
The former AEW World Champion hopes to put his demons behind him as he prepares for a new challenge against a formidable opponent.
