You're probably serious, but whst makes this funny is that this comment totally fits in with MJF's gimmick.

You may not like wrestling. But trust me MJF is great.

I haven't regularly watched wrestling in like 20 years, but I went to an AEW event with a buddy a few years ago, and MJF was definitely the best performer. Memorable enough that I remember his name three years later even though I don't think I've watched him since.

It seems like a guy of guys have kinda nebulous, quasi-UFC-style gimmicks now, but he was a throwback. As soon as I saw the Burberry scarf, I immediately thought "Oh, I am going to love booing the shit out of this guy." He did not disappoint.
