MJF does not attend his meet & greet session at AEW Fan Fest.
As AEW inches closer to their Double or Nothing event on May 29th in Las Vegas, they held a Fan Fest event in the city on 5/28 and MJF was scheduled to partake in a photo and autograph session.
PWInsider was first to report that MJF legitimately did not attend the event and AEW was not able to get in contact with him. For those who paid for the autograph and photo session, AEW offered make-goods to them which included refunds and offering exchanges to meet other talents. F4WOnline has also independently confirmed that AEW has not been able to contact MJF.
Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp added to the story and noted that a flight out of Las Vegas has been booked for MJF.
He is scheduled to go one-on-one with Wardlow at Double or Nothing. Wardlow took ten lashings and won a Steel Cage match against Shawn Spears in order for the match to be made official.
MJF has stated in multiple media appearances and on AEW TV that his deal expires in 2024.
