Report: Update on MJF’s filming status
An update on MJF.
Fightful Select is reporting that the former AEW World Champion is set to finish filming for Violent Night 2 “relatively soon,” though it isn’t known when he is set to return to television. According to the report, MJF has “the acting bug” and has spoken about how much he’s enjoyed filming.
MJF hasn’t been seen on AEW television since losing to Mark Briscoe in a tables & thumbtacks match at All Out. In a promo that aired after his loss, he said he would leave and not come back until he’s one of the most dangerous men in the business. He said he would take his spot at the top, and he would do it his way.
Prior to his departure, MJF had goaded Hangman Page into defending his AEW World title against him without having to use his contract he won at All In, but failed to capture it at Forbidden Door thanks to a distraction from Mark Briscoe. That led to the match at All Out, where Briscoe emerged victorious.,
In addition to his role in Violent Night 2, MJF also played Lance Von Erich in The Iron Claw. He had a more prominent role in Happy Gilmore 2 playing the titular character’s son.
