MJF: I Wrestled Twice, In Two Different Countries, In Less Than 24 Hours. Unlike Hulk Hogan, I Actually Did That

On September 19, MJF faced Mistico in Arena Mexico. On September 20, he battled Mark Briscoe in a Tables N Tacks match at AEW All Out in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Two matches, two different countries, less than 24 hours apart.

“Getting on a private jet, flying to Mexico, wrestling [against Mistico] in one of the greatest matches of all time, assuredly the greatest match that’s ever happened in that arena … then flying from Mexico all the way to Toronto, Canada, to wrestle against Mark Briscoe in another all-time classic in a Tables ‘N’ Tacks match in under 24 hours, literally wrestled twice in one day. Unlike Hulk Hogan, I actually did that,” MJF told Cameron Hawkins of Yahoo Uncrowned.  “A lot of people would look at that schedule and s*** their pants. But that’s just not how I operate. I enjoy, and I would go as far to say I almost have a sexual thrill when you put a challenge in front of me. Because the challenge only develops the chip on my shoulder to be bigger, and the chip that’s on my shoulder has made the man that I am today. The chip grows every time I am judged. The chip grows every time my talents are questioned. The chip will continue to grow, but it’s never going to break me. It only makes me stronger.”

Hogan famously claimed that he wrestled over 400 days in one year, saying that going back and forth from Japan and America allowed him to gain extra days.

MJF will defend his AEW World Title against Hangman Page in a Texas Deathmatch at AEW Revolution.
