MJF explains why he did not acknowledge CM Punk’s “real world title” on AEW television

During an interview with WrestlePurists.com, AEW world champion MJF explained why he did not acknowledge CM Punk’s “real world title” on AEW television…

“I never commented on it. I’ll tell you why. I won’t sit here and tell you I’m a company man, but I’m definitely pro-professional wrestlers. And the fact of the matter is: Collision is really important. And Collision’s success is super important. So at the time, having a guy of that stature having something that everybody on that show could be fighting for — because realistically, as much as Tony Khan wishes he can clone MJF, I can’t be everywhere at once. So I didn’t have an issue with it. I thought it made all the sense in the world. I wasn’t sweating it, frankly.” (quote courtesy of F4WOnline.com)
