Fightful Select reported that their sources stated that MJF is currently set to finish filming for the upcoming new Violent Night 2 filming “relatively soon.” It was reported that it is currently not known when MJF will be returning to AEW.
Those spoken to reportedly stated that MJF currently has the “acting bug” and has spoken about how much he has enjoyed filming.
