MJF unloaded a scathing promo on AEW president Tony Khan on AEW Dynamite, requiring that he be fired from the company over aggravations with how little he is being paid compared to how valuable he is for the promotion. His segment ended with his microphone being cut and the screen fading to black, and when CM Punk tried to face him in the ring Friedman left through the crowd. Because then, AEW has been wiping all traces of Max from its online presence. All the recaps of the segment were instantly erased from Twitter, no pictures of him were uploaded to the episode's online folder and now he has actually been pulled from both the company's online roster and AEW Shop.
News broke over the weekend that Friedman, after months of frustration concerning his present AEW contract, had gotten his hands on a plane ticket to leave Las Vegas a night before the Double or Nothing pay-per-view. He still appeared to get squashed by Wardlow then instantly left the arena afterwards. He supposedly met with Khan today to discuss his contract scenario, resulting in him getting a promo spot after Dynamite's first match.
It's unclear when then turned from a real-life scenario (specific aspects of it have actually been regularly reported to be true prior to Wednesday's promo) and when it ended up being a storyline. Stay tuned for more details.
