In a surprising turn of events, former AEW World Champion MJF, who has been absent from television since losing his title to Samoa Joe at last year’s Worlds End pay-per-view, has made a sudden reappearance on the timeline of his former best friend and current archnemesis, Adam Cole. The Salt of the Earth, as MJF is known, has been on the shelf recovering from several nagging injuries, including a torn labrum that required surgery.
However, it seems that MJF’s rivals have not forgotten about him, and Adam Cole, the leader of The Undisputed Kingdom, is no exception. Cole, who betrayed MJF at Worlds End, revealing himself as The Devil, took to social media today to post a cryptic message that has left fans wondering what’s in store for the former champion.
The tweet in question featured a gif of Cole and MJF from their tag team days, which has sparked speculation about Cole’s intentions. While it’s unclear what Cole meant by the post, one thing is certain – he took great pleasure in betraying and injuring MJF, and it’s likely that he has plans for the former champion once he returns to action.
MJF’s return to AEW is still uncertain, as he was removed from the company’s roster on January 1st, and has been playing up “The Bidding War of 2024,” claiming that his contract with All Elite Wrestling expired at the start of the new year. However, with Cole’s tweet, rumors are swirling about a potential showdown between the two.
The possibility of a revenge storyline between MJF and Cole is tantalizing, given their history. MJF’s historic reign as AEW World Champion was marked by victories over top stars like Bryan Danielson and Kenny Omega, and his eventual downfall at the hands of Samoa Joe and Cole’s betrayal is still fresh in fans’ minds.
As MJF continues to recover from his injuries, fans are eagerly waiting to see what the future holds for the former champion. Will he return to AEW to seek revenge on Cole and The Undisputed Kingdom, or will he explore other options? One thing is certain – the world of professional wrestling is eagerly awaiting MJF’s return, and Adam Cole’s recent tweet has only added fuel to the fire.
