MJF gives an update on his condition.
MJF is banged up heading into his AEW World Title defense at AEW Worlds End against Samoa Joe, previously revealing that he suffered a torn labrum at AEW Full Gear against Jay White. MJF has not wrestled since AEW Full Gear, but he says he still plans on facing Samoa Joe and he plans to win.
"I got PRP done and something called EPAT where what they do essentially is, it's almost like shock therapy straight onto the muscle. I'm not going to lie to you, I cannot lift my arm all the way up north south. Point blank. Probably not something I should be discussing publicly. I'm kind of being known for being honest to a fault. I can't lose this belt. This world title reign, it means too much to too many people. Most specifically, it means too much to me. I'm going to go in there guns blazing, I'm going to give it 110%. I've wrestled Samoa Joe before, hardest match of my reign. I believe I've had 11 title defenses, I also hold the world of most title defenses of any world champion in the history of the company. Of every single match I've had, the one where I was in the most physical danger was Joe at Grand Slam. I know what I'm heading into, but I'm going to win because I have to win," he told Solomonster.
MJF and Samoa Joe are both set to speak on Wednesday's AEW Dynamite.
