MJF Challenging Hangman Adam Page For AEW World Title At AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door
Hangman baited MJF.
The opening segment of the August 13th AEW Dynamite featured MJF and AEW World Champion Hangman Adam Page in the ring.
MJF’s main talking point was having his Casino Gauntlet contract and being decisive about when he would take the AEW World Title from Page. He mentioned the upcoming Forbidden Door pay-per-view several times, but would not fully commit to executing the contract for the title match.
After some back and forth, Hangman called out MJF for being a coward, and that infuriated MJF. Hangman said MJF would not call his shot for Forbidden Door, and in a reaction of anger, MJF was baited into executing his contract for a title match on August 24 in London, England.
With the addition of the bout, here’s the updated Forbidden Door card:
- AEW World Tag Team Championships: The Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin) (c) (w/ MVP) vs. TBD
- AEW Unified Championship: Kazuchika Okada (c) vs. Swerve Strickland
- AEW Women’s World Championship: ‘Timeless’ Toni Storm (c) vs. Athena
- TBS Championship — Four-Way Match: Mercedes Moné (c) vs. Alex Windsor vs. TBD vs. TBD
