The AEW World Champion made a surprise appearance at an indie show on Saturday.
MJF appeared unannounced after the main event of WrestlePro’s 10th anniversary show on April 4 in Rahway, New Jersey. Promotion owner and AEW Vice President of Talent Development Pat Buck was thanking fans for attending the show when MJF confronted him and gave him a low blow.
It was later announced that Buck and MJF will go one-on-one at the promotion’s show on Sunday, May 31 also in Rahway, New Jersey.
