MJF & Adam Cole to team in AEW blind eliminator tournament
World Champion MJF will team with Adam Cole in the AEW blind eliminator tournament for a Tag Team title shot.
AEW revealed on Wednesday’s Dynamite that MJF & Cole were the first two names drawn for the blind eliminator tournament, a modern take on the WCW BattleBowl/Lethal Lottery concept, where names are drawn at random and wrestlers often at odds will be forced to team.
MJF and Cole faced off in the ring on this week’s Dynamite in a promo segment, where Tony Schiavone revealed that Cole and MJF were the first names drawn for the tournament. The two went to a time limit draw in a World title eliminator match on last week’s Dynamite. Cole asked for a rematch on this week’s show, but MJF declined the offer.
The full bracket for the blind eliminator tournament will be revealed on next week’s Dynamite. The tournament winners will receive a shot at FTR’s AEW World Tag Team Championship.
