Where's MJF?
The former AEW World Heavyweight Champion hasn't been seen since World's End 2023. Where is he?
Maxwell Jacob Friedman hasn't appeared on AEW television in 2024, having lost the World Heavyweight Championship at the World's End pay-per-view on December 31st. It's now been revealed why.
Per Deadline, 'The Salt Of The Earth' has just wrapped filming on The Floaters, a jewish summer camp comedy movie also starring Jackie Tohn from GLOW, Sarah Podemski, Aya Cash, Judah Lewis, Nina Bloomgarden, Jake Ryan, Seth Green, Steve Guttenberg and others.
MJF was an executive producer on The Iron Claw, having also played Lance Von Erich in the movie. He's made no secret of his attempt to move into Hollywood in the past, and having added another motion picture to resumé, his wrestling comeback may veer further into the distance despite last year becoming the longest reigning Champion in AEW's short history.
He remains a much-speculated-upon talent following his own teases going back years about the (bidding) "War Of 2024". The general belief is that he has already re-signed with All Elite Wrestling, but stranger things have happed in pro wrestling and some fans are leaning on that precedent to fantasy book a shock switch to WWE later in the year.
