For many wrestlers and fans, they have had to face those outside of the pro wrestling bubble looking down on the spot, with the same people being quick to label the sport as ‘fake’. For the current AEW World Champion, he has warned people not to say it to him in the street.
While speaking to WDW News in a new interview, MJF noted that if you tell him wrestling is fake to him in the street, he will punch you in the face.
“I think the same reason why people love movies, TV, or comic books, and when I hear people say wrestling’s fake, first of all, tell that to my body. Second of all, let’s live in a world where wrestling’s fake. It’s not. Just like Disney magic isn’t fake either. It’s not fake at all. But let’s pretend it is for five seconds. Even though if you say it to me in the street, I will punch you in the face. It’s fake. So is movies. So is TV. So is comic books. All the things that I know you love.”
Elsewhere in the same interview, Max said that wrestling and Disney have a lot in common. You can read more about that here.
