MJF is set for a big match.
The AEW World Champion has been angling for a match against Nic Nemeth for months, going as far back as January when he first called out the former WWE and TNA World Champion.
He made another attempt at it this Thursday when MJF seemingly responded to subtle shots from the former Dolph Ziggler on X, saying that he was an overhyped mid-carder
"This dude actually said I remind him of a younger Dolph Ziggler. lol. I don’t remember ever being an overhyped mid-carder. This dude is delusional. This dude is jealous. And most importantly, this dude should keep my name out of his fucking mouth."

This will be the first time Nic Nemeth and MJF enter the ring together. The Salt of The Earth had previously offered Nemeth a shot at the AEW World title and we'll have to see if this match leads to a title fight between the two.
The AEW Champion will have to overcome the challenge of another former World Champion he will be meeting in the main event of Dynasty before this. You can check out more about it here.
