Breaking Down The Belts: MJF’s AEW World Championship

While Kenny Omega very well could be the man to dethrone MJF, we’re not entirely sold on what could be Omega’s final reign being a short one. That’s because, like many fans, we are pretty set on the idea that Ospreay wins at All In when it returns to Wembley Stadium, especially due to the various video vignettes AEW has already been running for the “Aerial Assassin” and reports he has traveled to tapings to get cleared following neck surgery.

In that case, we think MJF holds the AEW World Championship straight through to All In. While this reign would be nowhere close to his historic first reign with the title, which lasted 406 days, it would make sense to keep the gold on him, as AEW just did a quick title change when Page lost the gold to Samoa Joe at Full Gear, then Joe lost the following month to MJF at Worlds End. If MJF loses the title at All In, he will have held the gold for around 247 days, which is nothing to scoff at.

While things can change quickly of course, there have been no recent reports that MJF is jetting back to Hollywood to film anything anytime soon. He can defend the title at Dynasty and Double or Nothing, as he has no shortage of challengers.

It seems like Ospreay is well on the way back to the ring, but just when he returns remains unclear. We think it will be at a pay-per-view, but Revolution seems unlikely with the massive stipulation between MJF and Page. It’s more likely we see Ospreay make his grand return at Dynasty, or possibly in New York City for Double or Nothing, both of which give him plenty of time to stack some wins to earn his shot at MJF.
