“I’m back and I’m here to save the day”
SI.com’s Week in Wrestling is published every week and provides beneath the surface coverage of the business of pro wrestling.That was unmistakable the moment his video began to play two weeks ago at the Double or Nothing pay-per-view.
When MJF marched into the ring, he faced off against Adam Cole, the man who masterminded the demise of his world title run. A former Triple H-protégé, Cole is a star in his own right, and he has created lasting moments in AEW, New Japan Pro-Wrestling, NXT, and WWE. Yet the only comparison here is that one looked like prime rib while the other was lunch meat–MJF overshadowed the brilliance of Cole, and now the onus is on Cole to reassert himself.
“I’m making a ton of f------ money. As far as when the contract ends, that’s nobody’s business but my own.” “And you know what’s crazy? I’m still evolving. Nobody really knows me 100 percent ever, and nobody ever will. To coin a line from one of the greats, if there’s one thing for sure about MJF, nothing’s for sure. I almost look at my wrestling matches as a discography of sorts. Somebody might say to you that the match between me and Jungle Boy at Double or Nothing in 2020 is one of the greatest matches they’ve ever seen.
