MJF is slated to be in action on one of the biggest episodes of AEW Dynamite of the year, but he’ll do so with an injury.
The AEW World Heavyweight Champion will defend his title against Samoa Joe on Wednesday night at Grand Slam from Arthur Ashe Stadium.
To promote the show, MJF has been doing a lot of media in the area, as seen below:

This comes after he has been teaming with Adam Cole as of late while furthering their program and won the ROH Tag Team Titles at All In. MJF took to Twitter to post the following:
“Tomorrow I go to war against a first ballot hall of famer. One of the greatest big men in the history of our sport. A man as intelligent as he is deadly. Beating Samoa Joe at 100% is nearly impossible. Tomorrow I’ll be wrestling injured. But I won’t be in there alone. I’ll be wrestling for The AEW fans. I’ll be wrestling for my fellow New Yorkers. I’ll be wrestling for my brother Adam. I’ll be wrestling to defend the grandest prize of em all, The Triple B. most of all I’ll be wrestling for this kid with a dream who promised himself he was done being pushed around.”
