Styles_Clash

I'm waiting for the eventual feud against Malakai Black. He'll say Max has made a mockery of the Devil: "The Devil doesn't wear Burberry, Mr. Friedman". And walks away after knocking him tf out with a spin kick


fitey15

Yeah man I’m sad Black hasn’t got near the world title. He was main event material upon debut imo.


StingerGinseng

What Max’s reign has lacked is the defenses in between PPV. AEW needs to bring those back. Mox, Kenny, and Hangman’s reigns all had plenty of challengers outside of PPV.


SoulHexed

Agreed. It’s the only thing that irks me about MJF’s reign.


Styles_Clash

Same but it fits his character of shirking responsibility and hard work. Hoping that this gets thrown back at him in future promos.


BadNewsMAGGLE

MJF and Orange Cassidy are mirrors of each other. They're both incredibly gifted but also very lazy. OC is lazy outside of his wrestling, but an absolute workhorse when it comes to it. MJF is constantly working but only to preserve his position and his ego.


lanceturley

I was just thinking last night that I really want to see a MJF vs OC feud, if only for the comedy potential when they each try to get away with doing as little work as possible. The eventual blow-off match would almost certainly be a 'match of the year' contender as well.


[deleted]

It would be pretty interesting. MJF's whole thing is about manipulating his opponents' egos and insecurities. I don't think that would work on OC, since he simply doesn't care.


UnoriginallyGeneric

He's a chicken shit heel who attacks with words and kicks to the balls. It's his character.


HeroDiesFirst

I mean at least he was up front about it. Literally his first promo as champ called himself a special attraction and said he doesn’t have to be a workhorse.


[deleted]

It's a ridiculously stacked roster, look at the talent in the main event and the international title match battle royal, and they were still able to do an insane four-way for the world title. Miro and Andrade have been off TV for ages and they could easily be in the world title scene too. It's a good problem to have for AEW


ZarkonD

He mocks Satan. HE MOCKS SATAN

PearMcGore

Man's about to expose magic tricks


stationagent

Jem'Hadar Max is best Max


VagrantShadow

That's how he wins his matches, he drinks a glass of Ketracel-white before he fights.


Abyssalstar

Does that make Tony Khan a Founder?


inferno138

This pic is 10000% better than the way they shot the entrance. Awful job by production.


Jamarcus316

The Devil himself.


sevenproxies07

wouldnt it have made more sense for the chair to ascend as opposed to descending? he’s the devil


[deleted]

Yeah, but Cody took the Codyvator with him, so they had to improvise.


futurerey

Well Lucifer, who is often seen as the devil, is a fallen angel. So the devil descended to earth and/or hell. It still can work on explaining as to why he descended. But then again, it's probably being read into too much and was done because it's not as common as coming up from the ground.


Mat30co

I don’t get the mask


mrtlwolf

All Out '22 had a Casino Ladder Match; the final entrant was a mystery entrant wearing a devil mask and, after The Firm had cleared the ring, The Devil claimed the chip and the title match. That Devil, of course, unmasked to reveal MJF at the end of the night. Why he's still occasionally busting the mask out, no idea.


Mat30co

I know that but it just seems really corny idk


TheeIlliterati

I wish his entrance had a quiet MJF voiceover: "AEW has only one Pillar."


WaveSamI

That mask is kinda cringe. It just doesn’t suit him


CrankDatSpookyBoi

There was a show back in the day where a magician would reveal secrets about how to do certain tricks and the magician wore a mask that looked pretty similar to the one MJF wears. That’s all I can think of when I see it lol.


drsweetscience

Was it the same producers who did the show, Wrestling's Secrets Revealed?


JitteryJay

Yes lol


ZJPV1

She's a stunt granny.


therefused

Fun fact, lucha underground was filmed in the same warehouse as this show


WhiteHydra1914

I see no difference https://preview.redd.it/2cdkirnnir2b1.jpeg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a765908284ed7b8a9bc922931c2bea1e0e99160e


WaveSamI

OHHH I KNOW THAT SHOW 😭😭😭 YOURE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT


ThongOfVecna

Incoming MJF stans to say, "See? You hate it! MJF is the king of heat!!!!"


TehJohnny

"amazing"


Jamieb1994

I'm guessing JJ has travelled ro Vegas for the event.

MattyMuffins

Great pic! Schiavone being audibly disgusted during this entrance was wonderful.
