AEW World Champion MJF discussed on this week’s Dynamite how Brody King cheated during their recent match. In the show’s main event, MJF faced Brody King in a championship eliminator bout where King achieved a surprise, immediate victory, earning him a future title shot at AEW Grand Slam Australia.
On the podcast You Better You Bet, MJF reflected on the match, claiming that King’s win was a fluke and insisting that King resorted to cheating. He explained that as soon as the bell rang, he intended to dominate King, whom he compared to a Chihuahua against his pit bull intensity. However, MJF recounted how “Hangman” Adam Page’s unexpected interference distracted him, allowing Brody King to take advantage and secure the win, which MJF described as cowardly and unrealistic.
MJF assured fans that at Grand Slam Australia, Adam Page will be fully occupied facing Andrade El Idro—who recently defeated both Kenny Omega and Swerve Strickland—and therefore won’t be able to interfere in his title defense against King. He confidently stated there’s no chance Brody King will leave Grand Slam Australia with the AEW World Championship.
MJF is set to defend his AEW World Championship at AEW Revolution against the victor of the Adam Page vs. Andrade El Idro match happening at Grand Slam Australia.
Fan Take: This storyline heats up the AEW championship picture by adding layers of rivalry and drama, particularly involving key players like MJF, Brody King, Hangman Page, and Andrade El Idro. For AEW fans, it promises thrilling matchups and narrative twists that keep the championship scene unpredictable and exciting.
