MJF lost the AEW Worlds Title to Samoa Joe in a hard-fought match in front of his hometown crowd in Long Island, New York tonight.
Samoa Joe choked Max out and won the match. Speculation has been running rampant about what Max would be doing next, and we have finally gotten an answer – at least partially.
Fightful Select has the update.
Many that Fightful spoke to immediately following AEW Worlds End said that they expect MJF to be off TV for a while immediately, if not almost immediately. MJF had sustained a plethora of injuries during his AEW Title reign, but was adamant that he wanted to see it through.
MJF has long said that his AEW contract is up at the start of 2024.
He’s not told anyone any different, but WWE sources have claimed that they’ve not had conversations with him, though there was interest as recently as a year ago. Most in AEW believe he re-signed well over a year ago, even though he’d never admit as such.
MJF defeated Jon Moxley for the All Elite Wrestling World Title at the Full Gear Pay Per View in November of 2022, and held the title for an incredible 406 days.
He’s defeated talents such as Adam Cole, Kenny Omega, Bryan Danielson (60 minute Iron Man Match), Ricky Starks, Daniel Garcia, and most recently “Switchblade” Jay White during the course of his World Title reign.
