At AEW All In 2025, Hangman Page managed to escape Jon Moxley’s grip and retain the AEW World Championship. Despite the intense battle between Page and Moxley, former TNA digital media champion Tommy Dreamer believes that the rivalry between MJF and Mark Briscoe deserves more attention. Speaking on “Busted Open After Dark,” Dreamer expressed his wish for their match to have been for the world title, praising their ability to capture his interest with their storyline.
The two clashed in the AEW Casino Gauntlet Match on Saturday, which MJF won by pinning Briscoe after a Jay Driller move executed with help from Roderick Strong, a tribute to Briscoe’s late brother Jay. Dreamer feels that the clear distinction between good and bad characters adds depth to their feud. “In AEW, I know who is the heel and who is the babyface, and that’s why I’m invested,” he said.
While Briscoe remains hostile towards MJF, the Casino Gauntlet winner is now setting sights on Hangman Page and intends to use his guaranteed title shot as a final chance to claim the AEW World Championship fairly. This guaranteed contract previously belonged to Christian Cage, who unsuccessfully tried to take the title from John Moxley.
Fan Take: This storyline highlights the classic good vs. evil dynamic that wrestling fans love, giving AEW an emotionally engaging feud that could build momentum for future title bouts. With MJF and Briscoe’s rivalry heating up, it sets the stage for compelling storytelling that keeps fans eagerly anticipating what’s next in AEW.
