MJF Returns at AEW Double or Nothing 2024

AEW celebrated its fifth anniversary at Double or Nothing in Las Vegas, and former World champion MJF made a surprise return.

He interrupted a speech from former friend Adam Cole and declared that he was not jumping to WWE and had no room in his life for friendship. So “the old MJF” is back.

Fittingly, The Elite won the “Anarchy in the Arena” main event. Kenny Omega and Adam Page are no longer on the team, but the Young Bucks teamed with Kazuchika Okada and Jack Perry to defeat Bryan Danielson, FTR, and Darby Allin.

The insanity included Allin setting Perry on fire, Reebok pump shoes covered in thumbtacks, and Allin getting hung upside down for so long that the fans chanted “Please Save Darby.”

In the end, Perry scored the biggest win of his career by pinning Danielson.

CEO CASHES IN
