Really not missed him at all, and not really a fan of the idea of just throwing him straight into likely winning the belt especially given how much Wardlow got f***ed over in the crossfire of it, but at least this is a lot more interesting of a direction to lean toward than what his initial promo seemed to be setting up.

This was a masterclass, from the Ladder Match to set it up, to the reveal and the Khan message. How slick he put on the Cardigan made me mark out lol.
This feels like AEW's firing on all cylinders again, this is a huge world title match and maybe one of the biggest they've ever done already. For a match they've already run a few times, this feels insanely fresh and the possibilities are endless
Stokely Hathaway is manager of the year lmfao

OK, now clean up the loose ends with Wardlow, Hangman, and whatever this new stuff with Stokely's group is.

Was expecting a beatdown with the Stokely Gang and the Joker, then the unmasking.

Given how Tony books, this was all to build to Wardlow beating Max for the title next year. Hell, Punk was even the one who got Wardlow to break free of MJF. |

Eh, never been a fan of MJF. Glad people are looking forward to it but it’s not for me. I don’t really watch too much AEW anyways though, just follow here so not even sure what my point is. lol

The whole set up feels convoluted as f***....
I'm glad MJF is back but damn it feels all of this is just extra....

I'm glad that during his return, they played that voicemail message. I think that quite neatly draws a line under his last promo and explains why he's back. I want douchebag mega-heel MJF being a prick to everyone, not worked-shot bollocks MJF asking for more money.

“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist….”
“Keaton Punk always said, “I don’t believe in God, but I’m afraid of him.” Well, I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is Keyser Soze Maxwell Jacob Friedman.”
….something like that.

Bummed out he didn't keep Sympathy for the Devil because it's a great theme and his normal theme is incredibly boring

Dunno everything that was going on behind the scenes but AEW is better when there is a motivated MJF around.
I do have the feeling he needed time away from wrestling and to not be a heel for a bit (guy when completely dark so I'm assuming he needed a break), and I am not a fan how his situation took away from Wardlow's big moment. But it's good to see MJF back

That ONE use of Sympathy probably cost Tony somewhere in the 7 figures plus range. Licensing stones songs, while not impossible, damn sure isnt cheap. |

Maybe this time they won't treat his stable like garbage but there was a much easier way to get here and it shouldn't have taken this long.

He was missed dearly. Other than the dumb ladder match design, it was a solid plan
