What is the current state of MJF's world title picture after Forbidden Door?
welcome to the busted open after dark podcast i'm your host tommy dreamer mjf has a slew of challengers to his world championship and i'm going to talk about it right now this is the busted open podcast mjf holding court uh mjf being the top guy mjf having all these guys after him but the main characters in this story are Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay. Will has a title shot. And oh, yeah, by the way, now so does Kenny Omega. MJF is holding his own. He doesn't care who he faces. No one is a threat to him in the sense of he just needs to know who he's going to face so he can outsmart them. He is putting an incredible workload upon himself, having matches the way he does, also with a bum leg, and continues to go out there and impress.
I feel that MJF MJF would not want to face either guy at Wembley, but the hometown hero, Will Ospreay, is the biggest guy for him to face there.
How do Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay fit into MJF's championship narrative?
Him and Kenny, I think we're going to see it next week, but I'm just talking about bigger picture. Who's going to face Will Ospreay? At Wembley. I got to tell you, with the stipulation of can Kenny do it, you just got to go, is there more money with MJF versus Will Ospreay? In Wembley? Or is there more money in another Kenny Omega, Will Ospreay match? Forget about where it is. I love that Kenny has all this confidence. And the other part is I don't know where we go with Kenny if Kenny can never challenge again. I want a root for Kenny.
What challenges does MJF face with his workload and injury?
I want Kenny to win. But my gut is telling me it's going to be MJF and Will Ospreay in Wembley. And... I just then worry about where does Kenny fit in? He'll always have a job in AEW, but without being that top guy, I still, like I said, I worry about Hangman Page because I haven't seen him. Is there a case for Kenny to be world champion? Yes. Kenny Omega versus Will Ospreay is a massive, massive match. Maybe they're thinking because they want to sell tickets or they have a presale and it's not as much as it used to be. I don't know those answers. So there is a massive case for Kenny versus Will Ospreay. to main event Wembley. Uh, I mean, we've seen it and it's drew money before, so hopefully it could draw money again for AEW.
Um, uh, And like I said, I don't know a world where Kenny cannot challenge. Obviously, he could still survive. Like I said, he'll have a job. He can make any title something, mean something, and get anything over. So that's it. But then it's also that competitive nature to be on top is a definitive thing that also works for Kenny.
Is Will Ospreay the right opponent for MJF at Wembley?
Unlike MJF, Kenny doesn't need the title. MJF needs the title. If we go with that main event of MJF versus Will Ospreay, is it time to put the world title on Will Ospreay? I say yes. It's capturing moments and there will be no bigger moment for your baby face, Will Ospreay. If it's Kenny Omega versus Will Ospreay for the title... I say yes again because it's capturing a moment. And even though it's a baby face, baby face match, I'll go back in history. Davey Boy Smith versus Bret Hart at SummerSlam. One of the greatest baby face, baby face matches of all time. And they still talk about it. And oh yeah, guess where it was? Wembley. And... again mjf if he comes out the victor and all this holy crap he has to go down as one of the greatest performers of all time in aew but think of the quality matches think of the uh how long he's been there his ascension and still being on the top all before 30 years old and now i know he is just 30 um
He has so much more left in him. And do you just ride this wave a la Ric Flair? Ric Flair was champion for a long time. Yes, he dropped it. bunch of times and it didn't really hurt that steam but when you talk about momentum you're talking about all the stuff oof if mjf is your champion uh he beats kenny omega and he beats will osprey and wembley holy crap who's going to be those next people for him because right down and there he just knocked off a whole lot of people um is it a kevin knight
What implications does Kenny Omega's potential title shot have for AEW?
Actually, probably Andrade's next after this. But where all of this takes us, this is what I love about pro wrestling.
