Top AEW names attended MJF and Alicia Atout's wedding

MJF is one of the biggest stars in AEW right now. In his career, he has made a lot of enemies on-screen while building strong friendships behind the scenes. Recently, photos from his wedding surfaced on the internet, featuring several of All Elite Wrestling’s top names.

A group picture from the wedding, featuring names like Tony Khan, Hangman Page, and Penelope Ford, made it online. Moreover, the crowd also featured names like Tony Schiavone, HOOK, Taz, Alex Reynolds, and Daniel Garcia alongside other AEW names. While Friedman managed to do a low-key wedding, he made sure to invite all the major names from the Jacksonville-based promotion.

Anugrah's favorite wrestler is Seth Rollins. He admires The Visionary's work ethic, resilience, and unwavering dedication to his craft. If he could travel back to the Attitude Era, he would have loved to manage Chris Jericho. Anugrah feels Y2J was the perfect mix of charisma, rebellion, and in-ring talent in WWE. He would have helped the multi-time world champion scale new heights.
