At Full Gear in November, MJF defeated Jon Moxley to turn into AEW world champion for the primary time. Primarily ever since then, Moxley’s Blackpool Fight Membership stablemate has tried to get revenge on the villainous titleholder.
MJF’s victory on the time got here on account of William Regal turning on Moxley by handing brass knuckles to the heel. He repaid him in a dastardly approach by attacking the Englishman and knocking him out of All Elite Wrestling for good.
After watching MJF beat Moxley and assault his mentor, Danielson made it clear that he had his sights set on dethroning the titleholder.
On high of going for the AEW world belt, The American Dragon upped the stakes much more by difficult his opponent to a 60-minute Iron Man match at Revolution.
Since he was hellbent on not competing in such a contest, MJF made his rival soar via hoops to be able to make it occur, forcing him to beat a collection of opponents.
All through January and February, the previous WWE star ran the gauntlet, defeating the likes of Konosuke Takeshita, Bandido, Brian Cage, Timothy Thatcher and Rush on Dynamite.
That was sufficient to earn Danielson a title shot in an Iron Man match, and whereas that sort of bout would usually profit him, the freshness of the rivals was a subject of dialog coming into the pay-per-view.
Danielson was going to conflict on a weekly foundation main as much as Revolution, however MJF barely wrestled between Full Gear and Revolution.
The Salt of the Earth efficiently defended the AEW world title in opposition to Ricky Starks on the Dec. 14 episode of Dynamite however did not wrestle once more till Feb. 8 when he defeated Takeshita.
There was far much less put on and tear on MJF’s physique coming into Revolution in comparison with Danielson, offering a built-in cause for a possible loss for the challenger.
MJF did certainly prevail in his first pay-per-view title protection, and Danielson once more fell simply brief in an enormous match, which has turn into his downfall since becoming a member of AEW.
