MJF unexpectedly turns heel to end AEW Dynamite on a cliffhangerÂ
MJF has suddenly become unhinged and has just made a major heel turn to end this week's episode of AEW Dynamite. This happened after tonight's main event bout between Daniel Garcia and Will Ospreay for the International Championship. Friedman was standing in the former's corner to support him.
At a point in the match, the Aerial Assassin was in disarray, and MJF offered Garcia his Dynamite Diamond Ring to blindside Ospreay. The former ROH Pure Champion turned him down but was met with a Hidden Blade out of nowhere, with Will Ospreay getting the pinfall for a successful title defense.
After the match, Ospreay showed support for Garcia for a great fight. Then Friedman approached him and said it was his fault for costing him the match. He then raised his hand in front of the crowd.
This was all a ruse, as MJF then hit him with a low blow and attacked the young star. He even punched him while wearing the ring and hit him with an Avalance Piledriver. This left Garcia busted open and dazed, but Friedman continued the assault.
It was only Will Ospreay coming back out that stopped him, as he then high-tailed to the back of the arena.
It remains to be seen when the former AEW World Champion addresses the situation and the attack.
