Major Backstage Update on MJF’s AEW Return Plans

A significant development has surfaced concerning the return plans of former AEW World Champion MJF. MJF, who has been recovering from an injury, lost his title to Samoa Joe at AEW World’s End in December. With a reign of 406 days, Maxwell has been absent from AEW programming since last year.

Following the AEW World’s End pay-per-view, reports emerged that Maxwell would take time off due to a shoulder injury sustained during his title reign. MJF’s best friend, Adam Cole, betrayed him by revealing himself as The Devil to write him off the program. With him being out of action for five months, according to the latest reports, AEW is planning on his return to the promotion.

According to reports from Fightful Select behind paywall, there’s a chance that MJF could return to AEW television even earlier than expected. Sources backstage at AEW suggest that MJF might make his comeback around the time of the AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door 2024 pay-per-view, set for June 30.

Additionally, the reports also provided details about his contract situation, indicating that he signed an extension following AEW Double or Nothing 2022. Under the terms of the new deal, he is now one of the highest-paid individuals in AEW.

Meanwhile, with AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2024 just a month away, it will be interesting to see what plans Tony Khan has for MJF. With the promotion gearing up for the upcoming pay-per-view Double or Nothing scheduled for this weekend, all eyes are on whether MJF will make his return to Las Vegas during this event.

Why MJF’s return at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2024 makes perfect sense?

With the news of former World Champion MJF’s possible return at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2024, speculations are swirling. However, this raises the question of why the promotion is potentially planning his return on this pay-per-view.

AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2024 is set to take place in Long Island, New York, MJF’s hometown. It would be a perfect setting for the former World Champion to make his return here. The reception MJF receives whenever the promotion comes to Long Island, New York, is always impressive.

There is a high possibility that MJF will confront his former best friend, Adam Cole, who betrayed him. However, it’s important to note that Cole is also injured from an ankle injury. He has yet to make his in-ring return.
