MJF survives.
Adam Cole failed to defeated MJF on the June 14 episode of AEW Dynamite in an AEW World Title Eliminator Match, but he didn't lose either. Just as Cole seemingly had the match won following a Boom knee, the bell rang to mark the 30-minute time limit before referee Bryce Remsburg could count three.
Cole asked for five more minutes, but MJF walked away with the AEW World Title, giving no answer.
The near finish saw Remsburg prevent MJF from hitting Cole with the Dynamite Diamond Ring, leading to Cole hitting a superkick, the Panama sunrise, and the Boom knee.
So close for Adam Cole. This match continues!

Had Cole won the match, he would have received another match with MJF, only the AEW World Title would have been on the line in the rematch.
