Maxwell Jacob Friedman, better known as MJF, one of the brightest stars in All Elite Wrestling, made a striking statement during a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio. When asked about Goldberg\u2019s dissatisfaction with his WWE retirement match and the possibility of having his final bout in AEW, MJF did not hesitate to throw down a direct challenge to the WCW legend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The young star began by recalling his childhood admiration for Goldberg. He reflected on a televised moment when, as a child, he named Goldberg and The Rock as his favorite wrestlers, showing deep respect for these wrestling icons from an early age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, MJF quickly made it clear that if Goldberg truly wants to step into the AEW ring, he is ready to face him. With his trademark confidence, MJF declared that he would embarrass Goldberg and did not hold back in describing what he planned to do in the match. He vowed to dominate the former champion, even threatening to break tendons, ligaments, and bones in Goldberg\u2019s body. MJF emphasized that he would be Goldberg\u2019s final opponent and that no one would come after him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite the boldness of the statement, MJF acknowledged that such a high-profile match would require significant financial negotiations. He pointed out that both competitors would demand large paydays and that many factors would have to align for the bout to happen. Still, MJF reiterated his readiness and willingness to take the match, making it clear that he aims to raise the stakes within AEW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When asked about how AEW fans would react to the prospect of this match, MJF confidently said that the audience would watch anything he does. He even joked about how fans would be entertained no matter what, illustrating his point with humor. Still, he stated firmly that a match between him and Goldberg would be a major event, one that would draw fans from all wrestling eras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MJF also praised Goldberg\u2019s legacy, acknowledging his status as an intense and compelling superstar, despite not being known for his promo skills. He suggested that the contrast between his own sharp mic work and Goldberg\u2019s physical dominance could create a fascinating storyline and build significant anticipation among fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This challenge by MJF raises the exciting possibility of a clash between two distinct wrestling generations, with AEW as the stage for a battle of styles and personalities. Whether Goldberg would accept the invitation remains to be seen, as does whether fans would embrace such a spectacle as a legendary send-off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
