Backstage News On Why MJF Was Written Off AEW Television

Despite defeating Daniel Gracia at All Out, MJF would be the one left lying in the ring after taking an Avalanche Piledriver post-match. And now it has been reported by Ibou of WrestlePurists , who broke MJF news before, that this was done because the AEW star needs to take time off to film a movie. Precisly what film this is wasn’t confirmed, although the MJF is listed as appearing in The Floaters on IMDB.com alongside Steve Guttenberg and Seth Green.

“The originally planned finish to MJF vs Daniel Garcia was a clean victory for Daniel. AEW is under the impression that Garcia is staying, but because a deal has still not been signed, the decision was made to have MJF go over. MJF is expected to go film a movie.”

MJF’s pro wrestling journey began in 2015, and he would attempt to accelerate his career through WWE’s Tough Enough, although he surprisingly wasn’t selected. Despite this, he wouldn’t be put off, and he honed his skills on the indie circuit before joining MLW and then AEW. Subsequently, his charisma, mic skills, and ability to blur the line between reality and storylines propelled him up the ranks in Khan’s promotion. With notable feuds against wrestling icons like Jon Moxley, Chris Jericho, and CM Punk solidify his status as a true homegrown main event star.
