Paul Wight gives ꦦhis thoughts on Maxwell Jacob Friedman, MJF.
Paul Wight knows a thing or two abo🎃ut heel turns. In the present day, MJF is embracing his babyface side (while still openly embracing being a scumbag).
, Wight put over𒐪 MJF as a villain but also said that he's not sure Max can actually have friends as he is building a budding friendship with Adam Cole on television.
"I don't think MJF is capable of having any true friends," he said in an interview recorded before AEW All In. "Let me be honest about this: he's one of the greatest heels I've seen in our business since Ric Flair in his prime, and that is an accurate statement. I haven't seen a heel that covers all the dots like MJF does. He's great at promos. He's vicious. He's likable but not likable. He also has gotten himself in such tremendous shape. He looks like he could beat somebody up. You know, a lot of talents now don't look like they could beat up a grape. So, to see where he goes further with his character, because I think he's at an all-time high, and I want to see, and I don't know anything creatively. I mean, I'm talking purely as a fan of watching MJF in the ring and his promos and stuff. I'm interested to see how this dynamic goes."
Ultimately, Max and Adam are still friends and will defend the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championship at AEW All Out. They will next defend their championships against The Dark Order. Check out the full card here.
