MJF has reiterated his push for AEW to run Madison Square Garden, telling TV Insider he is certain the promotion would sell it out and that the venue sits near the top of his personal checklist.
“That’s my Mecca. I know we’d sell it out easy. It would be a joke, especially if I’m in the main event. That’s a big goal of mine to wrestle in MSG. I’ve managed to accomplish the old checklist in this industry, but the scary thing is I’m doing a speed run. There is not much left. MSG is definitely on that list.”
September 2019 was the last time Madison Square Garden hosted a non-WWE event, when ROH and NJPW ran the venue in a show that featured Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks and other wrestlers who would go on to help found AEW.
