MJF Gives Update On Knee Injury, Says RUSH Is a ‘Bad Person’

MJF has given an update on his knee injury via a video from the comfort of a cold plunge tub. As noted, the AEW World Champion reportedly hyperextended his knee during his match with RUSH on last week’s episode of AEW Dynamite. MJF confirmed the news with a post to his Instagram account in which he noted that he did in fact suffer a hyperextension.

“Very recently, I have hurt my left knee,” MJF said. “I hyper-extended it in a match against Rush, who is a bad person. I think we can all agree on that. And honestly, the Nordic Wave — this match happened on Wednesday. It is now, I believe, Tuesday, and my inflammation in my knee has drastically gone down.”

He continued, “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, PPV buys. You name it, you’re welcome.”

It was reported that MJF is not expected to miss time and will compete at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door in San Jose, California, later this month.
