After a coveted win at AEW Blood and Guts, Pinnacle leader MJF has teased something new. Not only does his AEW contract expire in 2024, but the wrestler also teased a possible move to WWE.

When asked where does he see himself after the end of his contract, MJF said he would be the AEW World Champion and the leader of The Pinnacle but won’t discard the temptations of “the highest bidder.

Me and my boys were willing to go wherever the money’s at, it’s that simple,” MJF told Steel Chair magazine. “Don’t get me wrong, AEW runs deep in me, I don’t want to leave, but I am a businessman at the end of the day, and I can’t help myself if somebody’s got an offer for me, I’m going to listen to it.

MJF is used to early fame. “I’ve been a top name in this industry since I was 22.
