As noted before, AEW World Champion MJF was pulled from Beyond Wrestling’s Break The Walls Down event this past Friday in Cranston, Rhode Island due to him suffering a hyperextended knee injury during his match against RUSH at the June 3rd AEW Dynamite show in Richmond, Virginia. MJF’s injury situation is currently not expected to cause him to miss this month’s AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2026 event.
MJF provided an update on Tuesday on Instagram posting a video of his recovery progress. In the video, MJF was seen seated in a cold Nordic Wave plunge bath and stated that the swelling in his knee has gone down.
“Very recently, I have hurt my left knee. I hyperextended it in a match against RUSH, who is a bad person. I think we all agree on that. And honestly, this match happened on Wednesday. It is now, I believe, Tuesday? And my inflammation in my knee has drastically gone down.
Obviously, there’s still a s**t ton of inflammation and pain, but being honest with myself, without this cold plunge, I do believe it would have took me a lot longer to start feeling like myself. And honestly, I think Nordic Wave is going to be a big part of ensuring that I don’t have to take any time off, which is imperative for both my career and, frankly, the company of All Elite Wrestling, ratings, ticket sales, pay-per-view buys, you name it. You’re welcome.”
