MJF, the new AEW International Champion, is not entertaining the idea of a rematch with Will Ospreay anytime soon. The two wrestlers clashed in a thrilling match on the 250th episode of AEW Dynamite, where MJF claimed victory in the final seconds using his signature Dynamite Diamond Ring.
MJF’s Reluctance to Rematch
Despite the fans’ clamor for a rematch, MJF dismissed the idea in a conversation with The Wrestling Classic. He declared, “Why would I wrestle a guy I beat so handily? I literally beat him in record time.” Emphasizing his new status as the International Champion, MJF intends to elevate the title’s prestige, claiming it will surpass all others in professional wrestling.
Critique of Ospreay’s Approach
MJF critiqued Ospreay’s wrestling style, claiming that the British star is more focused on impressing the audience than securing victories. He said, “He’s wrestling to impress, he’s not wrestling to win.” MJF highlighted his own strategic, defense-based approach, stating that his “killer instinct” is what secured his win over Ospreay.
MJF added, “I’m looking for reversals. I’m looking to cut corners. I’m not looking for the hard way. I’m looking for the easy way out.” He believes this mindset sets him apart from Ospreay, whom he described as lacking the necessary instinct to win.
Future Plans
While MJF dismisses a rematch with Ospreay, he is set to defend the International Title against Templario in CMLL at Arena Mexico on August 2nd. This matchup promises to be a thrilling encounter, showcasing MJF’s skills against one of CMLL’s standout performers. Fans are eager to see how MJF will adapt to the unique challenges posed by Templario’s high-flying and technical prowess, especially on his home turf.
Meanwhile, anticipation is building for MJF’s appearance on the July 24th edition of Dynamite. Known for his sharp wit and charismatic presence, MJF is expected to address the fans, possibly shedding light on his future plans and his decision to bypass a rematch with Ospreay. His promo is likely to be a highlight of the evening, as he never shies away from speaking his mind and stirring the pot.
As MJF continues to make waves both in AEW and internationally, his upcoming matches and appearances are drawing significant attention. His ability to balance in-ring performance with compelling storytelling keeps fans engaged and invested in his journey, making him one of the most captivating figures in wrestling today.
The rivalry between MJF and Ospreay may not culminate in another match soon, but both wrestlers are sure to continue making waves in AEW.
