Maxwell Jacob Friedman is a polarizing wrestler. Some think he’s a real salt-of-the-earth type guy whereas others can’t stand him. He spoke with the Sporting News ahead of his participation in AEW’s Casino Battle Royale tonight.

During the interview, MJF spoke about some of the hatred he receives online.

“The one thing that I wish that the fat troll marks on Twitter understood is, I would love for them to get into the ring and let me body slam them one time.”

He continued to say fans don’t understand the physical toll wrestling takes.

“That’s it. I don’t want to do anything else. Just let me give you a regular, good old-fashioned body slam in the ring,” he continued. “You won’t be able to walk for a week. I’m a superman. The fact that I’m able to do what I do is absolutely astonishing. The fact that these fans don’t understand that a ring is comprised of steel, metal beams, wood, and a thin sheet mat, and that’s it.”

MJF wrestled Matt Cross at All In but has since been banned from Starrcast. The following video shows MJF being kicked out of Starrcast II earlier this week:

The 23-year-old says he knew after his debut match in 2015 that he would be a star in the wrestling business.

“It was amazing,” MJF said of his first match. “I recall going into the back, and everybody being like, ‘Man, how many years have you been wrestling?’ I said, ‘That was my first match.’ Everybody was like, ‘Nah, f- off.'”

He continued to say that nobody believed it was his first match.

“Nobody believed me. It pumped me because I already knew I was a star in the making from that moment forward. I knew right away. I was like, ‘You think that was good, just you wait until I really grow into my paws.’ And I have. Very quickly.”
