MJF believes he’s the glue that keeps the wrestling industry together. Jacob also stated that everyone around him hates his guts and has a problem with him. 

“I am the top-tier guy that everybody has a problem with; when you take your biggest antagonist, even though personally I feel I’m the protagonist. But, when you take your biggest antagonist, so to say, and you take them away, what do you have? What is the Batman without the Joker? He’s nobody. He’s not intriguing. There’s no success without having that thorn in your side,” Maxwell Jacob added.
