Summary
MJF says he has already pitched the idea of a Wednesday Night Wars documentary to Tony Khan.
The AEW world champion brought it up while discussing wrestling documentaries and the decline of DVD media. He pointed to AEW's head-to-head run against NXT on Wednesday nights, noting that Dynamite won 63 of the 75 weeks in overall viewership and 74 weeks in the key demo before NXT eventually moved to Tuesdays.
Quote from MJF
"I do think we drop the ball in my company, and I’ve said this to Tony, ‘We should do a Wednesday Night Wars’ documentary. We literally won, and we have guys who work in our company now who were on the other side. It’d be fucking sick. You can sit down (Adam) Cole, Roddy (Strong), Kyle (O’Reilly), Swerve (Strickland), all these guys that were on the other side of the war. You can’t sit down Bobby Fish, unfortunately. Folks, where is the lie?"
What A Wednesday Night Wars Documentary Would Mean For AEW
MJF's pitch is notable because AEW now has several names on its roster who lived through that ratings battle from both sides. That gives the company a real chance to tell the story with first-hand voices instead of treating the era like a footnote.
It also shows how AEW's presentation choices remain part of the wider conversation around Tony Khan's booking and media strategy. That kind of public discussion has come up in other settings too, including when Vince Russo proposed AEW creative talks and Khan responded positively.
Dynasty Context
The comment arrives with MJF headed into AEW Dynasty, where he is scheduled to defend the AEW World Title against Kenny Omega.
