MJF may be AEW World Champion again, but hes not thrilled about how Bandido secured his title shotand hes not staying quiet about it.
During a recent conversation with Brandon Walker, MJF addressed why hes still proudly wearing the Dynamite Diamond Ring, even though Bandido technically won this years version. And according to the champ, the new rules around the ring are total hypocrisy.
MJF has held the Dynamite Diamond Ring multiple timespossibly five or six, he admits hes lost countand hes treating it as a symbol of legacy, not something that gets handed over each season. But whats really got him heated is the new stipulation that gives the ring winner an AEW World Title shot.
For MJF, this isnt about sour grapesits about changing the rules mid-game. He made it clear that his collection of rings isnt going anywhere.
While the AEW World Title match between MJF and Bandido is locked in for January 14, 2026, at the Maximum Carnage edition of Dynamite, its safe to say the Salt of the Earth isnt happy about how it came together.
Do you think MJF has a point, or is he just being bitter about the rule change? Should Bandidos win have included a title shot? Drop your thoughts below and let us know where you stand.
