MJF is taking his mind games internationaland now hes coming for the CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship.
During the July 16 episode of CMLL Informa, Maxwell Jacob Friedman issued a challenge to Averno, all in an effort to get inside Misticos head.
The former AEW World Champion didnt hold back. Wearing the same mask he ripped off Mistico at AEW Grand Slam: Mexico, MJF delivered a pointed promo and made his intentions crystal clear.
No official date has been set for the title bout, but MJF is already setting the toneand its pure psychological warfare.
Promotional lines havent stopped him before. MJF showed up at MLW Summer of the Beasts and blindsided Mistico, even reuniting briefly with Alex Hammerstone in the process. Mistico later fired back in an interview, vowing that hed cross any promotion line necessary to get his hands on The Devil.
Averno, for his part, has yet to officially respond. But with MJF now targeting CMLL gold, fans are already speculating that the match could be announced any day.
MJF isnt just playing the long gamehes playing dirty, and Mistico may have no choice but to meet him on his terms.
Should CMLL make MJF vs. Averno official? And is Mistico ready for what MJF has planned next? Let us know what you think in the comments.
