MJF Shoulder Injury Status Update – MJF Underwent Surgery for Shoulder

As noted before, MJF has been out of action for AEW since this past December’s AEW Worlds End event due to a shoulder injury.

WrestlePurists reported that their sources stated that MJF recently underwent surgery on his left shoulder.

It was reported that MJF has originally aimed for a potential March return from his injury and had met with AEW CEO Tony Khan in Boston to discuss creative plans for his return.

It was also reported that due to MJF and Adam Cole’s current injuries situation, AEW’s original creative plans for the MJF vs. Undisputed Kingdom feud have been dramatically affected.

It was also reported that there is currently no timetable for MJF’s injury return to AEW.


AEW Provided Medical Update for Tony Khan’s Storyline Injury at Saturday’s Collision Show

As noted before, this past Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite show at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, Florida featured The Elite and Jack Perry attacking AEW CEO Tony Khan to close out the show. Khan was seen wearing a neck brace selling the effect of The Elite’s attack throughout this past week’s 2024 NFL Draft event.

Saturday’s AEW Collision show in Jacksonville featured AEW providing an official medical update on Khan’s status following The Elite’s attack on him.

AEW commentator Tony Schiavone stated that Khan had suffered “multiple head and neck injuries” but will be able to continue to run AEW shows remotely in Jacksonville. Schiavone also stated that Khan’s doctors had recommended for him to not travel to shows while recovering from his injury. This led to AEW commentator Nigel McGuinness responding stating who would be running the shows backstage on location and brought up the idea of the EVPs Matthew and Nicholas Jackson possibly being the people to do so.
