Eddie Kingston has made it abundantly clear that he doesn’t care about MJF, the current AEW World Champion. Kingston recently appeared on WTF with Marc Maron and discussed his thoughts on Friedman and his actions both on camera and behind the scenes. Max has previously claimed that he will never wrestle “that slob” and had him on a list of people who will never beat him for AEW’s top prize.
“He’s a real piece of -. I’m just going to get that out there. I don’t know why he’s the champion. He’ll cry to Tony (Khan) about it, then I’ll get an email from Megha (Parekh) and HR , ‘you can’t call our world champion pieces s—.’ Well, if he doesn’t act like a piece of—I won’t call him that,” said Kingston (h/t combative).
“He has a low life,” he added, saying it’s not part of his character to be horrible when the cameras aren’t rolling. “He’s a young lad who thinks he knows everything and he doesn’t. F— em. I don’t care if… What are they going to do, fire me? Okay. I’m going to work somewhere and earn money.’
After the transcript came online, Kingston tweeted, “Well I guess the podcast deal has come through and it’s news now that I don’t like our world champion. Well folks he’s not the only one I don’t like.” . It’s simple if you’re not a good person in my eyes (important “in my eyes”) then go for yourself. (Edit so @AEW can retweet it.).” He then confirmed that someone had reached out to email him about his comments.
Yes, just got the email. I can’t talk about any of the “pillars” like that. pic.twitter.com/8I64bv97dN
