Lance Archer Praises MJF But Wishes to Win The Title
Lance Archer has never won the AEW World Title in his life, and it appears to be his ultimate goal. Unlike most AEW stars, Lance actually has fought for the title numerous times. However, he has never captured the title even once and always fell short even during his best performances. He made is clear on the Busted Open Radio that he will not give up and he will definitely continue fighting for the title as long as he can.
"It's always one of my goals," Archer said. "I've fought for the title two different times against Jon Moxley and 'Hangman' Page. So the fact that MJF is the champion right now, he's definitely somebody's ass I want to kick, because he's holding the title."
Even though Lance Archer wishes to capture the AEW title, he had special praise for MJF, who has proven to be a very formidable and resilient champion. MJF has been carrying AEW ever since CM Punk exited the company. Jon Moxley was the previous champion, and MJF is currently regarded as one of the best professional wrestlers in the world. Many people believe that he is currently the best heel wrestler in the world as well.
"I think he's a great representation of AEW and pro wrestling as a whole," Lance Archer said. "He absolutely captures everybody's attention every single time he's out there. The stories that were told leading up to him getting to this point are what makes pro wrestling so much fun to watch. ... He's one of those talents that makes people love to hate him, which is a great thing for this business, but he always has a target on his back because of that. Now that he's champion, that target has become huge. So I think he's a great champion right now. I'd love to kick his ass and take it off of him."
