#3. Booker T recently showered praise on MJF

WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently showered praise on MJF on his Hall of Fame podcast. He called The Salt of the Earth a 'generational talent' but warned AEW against crowning him world champion before he was ready for the role.

Booker T felt that even if it took MJF a little time to be ready to be world champion, Tony Khan's promotion needed to make sure he doesn't get the belt put on him too soon:

"I'm not gonna say he's gonna be a bad AEW World Champion or anything like that. He's 25-26, it's a new company like AEW, you can, of course, give him the ball and run with it, but I want this guy to get a little more time and do his work and do what he's doing right now, which is establishing himself as one of the best. When he's gonna win it eventually, it's gonna take a while before you get it off him. I wouldn't want to put it on him too soon. I don't want to put on him so soon because he could be one of those generational talent who could hold the belt for two years straight."

MJF is currently involved in a heated feud with CM Punk on AEW television.
