Former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal (Raj Dhesi) believes MJF has all the tools to become WWE’s next franchise player if he ever joins the company.
Dhesi expanded on that opinion in the video’s caption, predicting that MJF will eventually make the move from AEW to WWE. “My prediction: MJF eventually makes the jump to WWE. And if he does, I think he has the potential to be the next franchise player.”
Following Kenny Omega’s victory over MJF to capture the AEW World Crown on the July 9 edition of AEW Dynamite, Dhesi shared his thoughts in a video posted to TikTok. “I’ve seen enough. The future franchise player of WWE—I’m talking Reigns, Cena, Rock, Austin, Hogan level—is MJF.”
He then spelled out why he holds the view that MJF has the qualities needed to become one of WWE’s biggest stars. “He can talk, and he understands his character. He knows how to use social media and media in general to keep people invested.”
According to Dhesi, MJF’s greatest strength is his ability to make wrestling community question what’s real and what’s part of the performance. “Most importantly, he understands how to blur the lines — the most valuable skill to have.”
