Wardlow: I've Been Through Much Worse In Life Than MJF, He's Not The Devil

Since Wardlow turned on MJF at AEW Revolution by helping CM Punk in the Dog Collar match, MJF has tried to make Wardlow's life a living hell.

Wardlow is still under contract to MJF and MJF has tried to ban him from the arena before now putting him to work against various opponents whose only goal is to put Wardlow out of action.

Speaking on Buster's World, Wardlow was asked if he regrets turning against MJF.

"No. I think this can actually relate with a lot of people in life, people that hold on to that toxic job or that place that, they wake up every morning, they know they are going to be miserable all day. They know their boss is going to yell at them and treat them like trash, but they keep going back every day. I know it's scary to take that step, there is comfort there, you have a steady job and steady income, health insurance, whatever benefits come along. it's scary to push that away and take a different route or take a chance on something else. I'm a big believer in always taking that step. Take that chance. If you're not 100% happy and thriving, you have to take that chance and go out on your own. That's what I'm doing with Max. I know he's trying to make my life hell. I'm sure we've barely scratched the surface. I know how this man operates. I don't regret it at all. I don't care if he drives me insane. I know this is the right choice for me. Max calls himself the devil, he's not. I've been through much worse in life than Maxwell Jacob Friedman. I've looked the devil in the eye and here I am. There is nothing Max can throw at me that can slow me down," said Wardlow.

Wardlow is set to take on Lance Archer on Wednesday's AEW Dynamite.

Fightful will have live coverage of AEW Dynamite beginning at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
