MJF made a surprise appearance at tonight’s WrestleDream PPV from Tacoma Dome but he is not gonna be sticking around.
The PPV saw Jack Perry beat Katsuyori Shibata to retain his TNT Championship. Daniel Garcia came out to help Shibata when Perry continued his assault after the match.
MJF’s music hit after this and he entered the ring to confront Garcia. The distraction allowed Perry to clock Garcia from behind. The former AEW champion then unleashed an assault on the young star.
The Salt of The Earth revealed that he had found his missing Dynamite Diamond Ring. He looked to attack Garcia with it but Adam Cole’s music hit and the Undisputed Kingdom leader made his return.
Cole was ready to get some retribution from his former tag team partner but MJF quickly retreated. The segment ended with Cole helping Daniel Garcia get up.
MJF Going Back To Hollywood
According to Fightful Select, the former AEW Champion told people backstage at WrestleDream that he won’t be sticking around AEW programming. He has to return to filming Happy Gilmore 2 after this show.
Happy Gilmore was a 1996 sports comedy movie featuring Adam Sandler in the title role. The Netflix sequel sees Sandler reprising his role and MJF is said to have a significant part in the movie.
This isn’t the only movie in the pipeline for the AEW star. We reported exclusive details of his next project, the action-comedy movie Stranglehold, directed by Clark Duke.
A feud between MJF and Adam Cole is long due since the latter turned on his friend and revealed himself as ‘The Devil’ at the Worlds end PPV last year in December.
With multiple movie projects in the works, however, it’s hard to say when the 28-year-old will be allowed to compete again.
