MJF retains AEW World Title, Kenny Omega sets up Beach Break challenge

entertainmentJul 2, 202634409

On the July 1 episode of AEW Dynamite, MJF retained the AEW World Championship over Mark Briscoe after hitting an Alabama Slam and the Heatseeker following a violent, back-and-forth match that saw Briscoe use multiple Froggy Bows, two Tope Con Hilos, and an attempted Jay Driller. MJF busted Briscoe open early by targeting a Forbidden Door wound and finished the bout after repeatedly countering Briscoe's offense; MJF then attacked Briscoe postmatch with the Dynamite Diamond Ring. Kenny Omega intervened to save Briscoe and confronted MJF, who declined an immediate challenge but offered Omega a title shot next week on the condition that Omega can never challenge for the AEW World Championship again if he loses. AEW announced MJF vs Kenny Omega for next Wednesday's Beach Break, making the match a career-altering stipulation for Omega. The segment sets up a high-stakes title match at Beach Break and leaves Mark Briscoe recovering from the attack and ring-side confrontation.

If MJF somehow wins here I assume it's through some bullshit and Redemption is Title vs Career or something like that

They've managed to make a scenario that could have been utterly predictable--the assumption that Ospreay would win the belt at Wembley--into a months-long journey full of genuinely compelling twists and turns.

With MAJOR developments at Redemption, where I'll be at! 🕺

Kenny Omega with his decision. This is some Raw 99 where there’s a story looping through the whole episode. AEW very very rarely does that in its whole history, but I don’t mind it as long as the story is good and this is

One day, Kenny Omega won't be wrestling anymore. Every moment we've had with him has been a blessing as a wrestling fan.

Something to consider as Kenny Omega tells the Bucks that he needs to do this on his own: Kenny has never won a world title on his own. In fact, a big piece of Kenny's story is that he has always felt that he needed his friends with him to win the big one. #AEW 🤼 (cont.)

Okay, disregard my breathless rambling for a minute, because this is also a fantastic point, and goes deep into the lore of Kenny Omega and The Elite. I love this too.

Fantastic thread explaining the significance behind Kenny's plea to The Bucks that they not assist him in winning the title next week. #AEW

Jon Moxley handed Will Ospreay a Death Riders patch at the start of AEW Dynamite. Kenny Omega showed up and told Osreay that what he's doing with the Death Riders doesn't affect their friendship.
