• MJF Warns Ex-WWE Wrestlers: AEW Is No Place for Mediocre Performers
During an interview with TV Insider, MJF didn’t hold back while discussing what AEW President Tony Khan has learned running All Elite Wrestling – taking a pointed jab at former WWE talent who have jumped ship to AEW. MJF made it clear who he believes is the top star in AEW: himself. “[Tony Khan] has learned I’m his biggest star, which is why he pays me the big bucks. He understands what I bring to the table more than ever,” MJF said.
But the real heat came when he addressed the locker room mentality. Taking aim at ex-WWE wrestlers, MJF said, “We’ve had a lot of guys in the past come in and think they are going to be king sh*t just because they had their time in the sun for a millisecond in other promotions. That’s not how it f**kin’ works. It’s called All Elite Wrestling. Not All Average Wrestling. Not All Mediocre Wrestling. Not All… I’m going to show up, cash a check and expect to be World Champion wrestling. It’s All Elite Wrestling.”
MJF emphasized that AEW demands 110 percent from everyone. “Right now, everyone in that locker room is on the same page. We aren’t coming there to cash a check. If you think you’re going to come into my company and barely put in work, you’re out of your goddamn mind. You don’t belong here. So stay where you are and be miserable over there because you don’t belong swimming in the ocean of sharks that is AEW.”
MJF recently joined The Hurt Syndicate.
• Charlotte Flair Reveals Her Honest Reaction To Tiffany Stratton’s 0-3 At Marriages Line
Charlotte Flair has opened up about a deeply personal moment that shook her during a live promo, revealing the raw emotional toll that her divorces have taken on her life and career. Known in the ring as the confident and dominant “Queen,” Charlotte is often seen as untouchable and fiercely proud. But behind the scenes, Ashley Fliehr – the woman behind the persona – has faced real struggles, including three divorces. Tiffany Stratton brought this up during a promo on the road to WrestleMania 41. A line mocking her failed marriages hit Charlotte harder than any physical blow she has taken in the ring.
Here’s what Charlotte said in her Players’ Tribune piece:
“I think in those times when people have seen me appear rattled by the booing, those are just the times when I’ve felt like – at least for a moment – the boos aren’t for Charlotte. They’re for Ashley. They’re for me. They’re because of the way I look. Or because of the energy I’m giving off as a woman. Or because of real trauma I’ve gone through in real life.
So when it got mentioned in Chicago that I have an ‘0-3 record at marriages’… yeah, it rocked me legit. I’m not too proud to tell you that. I don’t need everyone thinking I’m playing 5-D chess all of the time. My reaction to that line was as genuine as it gets.
Because – and maybe this makes me naive – in my head?? Charlotte hasn’t been divorced. So I wasn’t expecting it to come up in that promo… and then all of a sudden I had an entire arena cheering as I got mocked for something that was (and frankly still is) devastating to me.”
• Becky Lynch & Seth Rollins’ Home Robbed
WWE stars Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch are dealing with an unsettling situation after their beachside home in Southern California was broken into early Tuesday morning, according to TMZ Sports. According to law enforcement, the couple’s residence in Playa Del Rey was burglarized around 3 a.m., mere hours after Rollins and Lynch had wrapped up their appearances at Monday Night RAW in Providence, Rhode Island’s Amica Mutual Pavilion.
Thankfully, the house was empty at the time of the incident. Police say the intruder, or intruders, forced entry through a sliding door at the back of the property. Cash was reported stolen during the burglary. It was Rollins himself who phoned 911 to alert authorities once the crime was discovered. So far, there have been no arrests in the case, and the investigation remains ongoing.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2021 and share a four-year-old daughter named Roux, often spend time at the Playa Del Rey property. Lynch even posted a snapshot to Instagram last month featuring Rollins relaxing in the home’s living room.
Both Seth & Becky have a big weekend ahead of them. On Saturday Night’s Main Event, Rollins (who is the current Mr. Money In The Bank) will face LA Knight. On Sunday, Lynch will defend her Women’s Intercontinental Championship against Bayley and Lyra Valkyria in a triple threat match at the Evolution 2 PLE.
