AEW World Champion MJF has once again attracted attention, this time due to a tweet he posted over seven years ago mocking Brody King’s wrestling skills. In October 2018, prior to AEW’s official debut, MJF wrote on Twitter,
“I want to say this while I’m in the same town as him Cuz I’m a grown man and I need to make something real clear. @Brodyxking chops like a schoolgirl. I am now boarding my flight.”
AEW was established in January 2019 with MJF as one of its earliest talents. Brody King joined the promotion three years later in January 2022. Now, in 2026, the two are scheduled to face off for the AEW World Championship on Saturday, February 14, at AEW Grand Slam: Australia.
Brody King’s Response Stirs Excitement Ahead of Title Clash
Following the resurfacing of MJF’s old tweet, a fan alerted Brody King via social media, prompting him to reply,
“Really glad someone brought this to my attention. See you Saturday @The_MJF.”
