Kayfabe: Wardlow Talks About His Contract With MJF

During an appearance on the Battlegrounds podcast, Wardlow spoke about his partnership with MJF.

"Essentially, when AEW started, Max just reached out to me, and basically, long story short was, 'Hey, I'm about to make a lot of enemies, and I need somebody to watch my back.' He wrote up a contract, and he said, essentially, he would hire me to, basically, be his bodyguard, or take care of business for him. I agreed to do so. Now, after a couple of years, I don't think there are too many people that have a tremendous relationship with their boss, and just like any normal job, your boss can get on your nerves and we've seen many examples of this. So for now, he signs my paychecks, I'm still under contract with him, and we'll just see what the future holds."

Wardlow went on to speak about his contract situation.

"Max and his lawyers seemingly change this contract. Every time I think something is settled. There's a new page of the contract that magically appears. So, there are things that are being looked into."

Wardlow's main priority, however, isn't MJF.

"Realistically, I would like to powerbomb Mark Sterling before MJF."
