Ric Flair Met MJF, Says He Has ‘A Gift That So Few Have’

It is safe to say that currently, the biggest and most over All Elite Wrestling star is Maxwell Jacob Friedman. MJF has been one of the top heels in the company for over three years. Now, he is a big babyface. To sum up his entire AEW run in a single sentence, Friedman was a nasty and dirty scumbag but now, he’s the people’s scumbag. Recently, the AEW World Heavyweight Champion received heaps of praise from a two-time WWE Hall of Famer.

Let’s discuss MJF’s rise to the top a little bit more. For a long time, the Salt of the Earth was undefeated. He also portrayed himself as a Prizefighter and thus would only wrestle at major events. He quickly became popular for his promo skills. MJF also has been holding on to the Dynamite Diamond Ring for five years in a row.

Recently, fans got to see one of the greatest WWE World Heavyweight Champions of all time make an appearance on AEW. The wrestling legend is none other than The Nature Boy Ric Flair.

Flair is now signed with the Jacksonville-based promotion. The Nature Boy recently took to Twitter to mention that upon meeting MJF for the first time, he is convinced that Friedman is a special talent. He claims that The Salt of The Earth possesses the ‘Gift’.

“I Met @The_MJF Last Night. OMG! He Has THE GIFT! I’m Honored To Have Met You. Looking Forward To Working With You & Our Relationship Going Forward. You’ve Got A Gift That So Few Have! You’re Special! WOOOOO!” Ric Flair tweeted.

Friedman is set to pull double duty at AEW Full Gear this Saturday night.

Do you agree with Ric Flair’s comments about MJF?
