Speculation about MJF returning to AEW at the 2022 All Out PPV
MJF has not appeared on AEW television since the June 1st 2022 edition of Dynamite when he brought up his contractual situation with the company.
There will be a Casino ladder match at this Sunday’s All Out PPV with the winner receiving a future AEW world title opportunity. A mystery entrant (The Joker) for the match is currently being advertised and fans have speculated about MJF making his return. During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com commented on the speculation…
“MJF certainly makes as much sense as anyone. I knew MJF’s coming back soon, but I don’t know if it’s gonna be this week. He’s definitely in the running if you’re gonna put odds on something, so he’ll be the likely guy. I don’t know who’s out there on the free agent thing or on the roster who could be the mystery guy – he could pull it off and it would work. If they want him to get into a championship match, this is a way to justify it.”
“Tony [Khan] did say that after this show, they will be at 100% & they will be the strongest unit that they have ever had, 100%. He wouldn’t say what 100% means, but to me 100% means MJF, & I already knew MJF was coming back soon.” (quotes courtesy of RingsideNews.com)
