3 Reasons MJF should win world title at Worlds End

MJF made his thunderous return to All Elite Wrestling this week at Dynamite Holiday Bash. He was absent from the company since All Out this year, and fans had been awaiting his comeback for a while. Without wasting any time, The Salt of the Earth went after the AEW World Championship and put the champion, Samoa Joe, on notice.

Maxwell Jacob Friedman executed his Casino Gauntlet Battle Royal contract to make himself a contender for the World Championship. Now he will compete for the AEW World Title against Samoa Joe, Swerve Strickland, and Hangman Page in a Four-Way Match at Worlds End. MJF's arrival has changed the entire landscape of AEW, and fans are now speculating that the 29-year-old might become the new champion later this month.

Therefore, let's discuss 3 reasons MJF should win the world title at Worlds End:

#3. Shocking title change

If MJF manages to become the AEW World Champion at Worlds End, it would be a huge shocker for the fanbase. Samoa Joe recently became the new champion at Full Gear last month. Therefore, not many people are expecting him to drop the title so soon. Hence, if Tony Khan puts a shocking title change just before the year's end, it could help the company generate massive buzz.

Besides, fans would have something to talk about as the company enters 2026. Moreover, such a title change would put a huge question mark on the future of the AEW World Championship. It can result in the rotation of exciting matches between the four stars involved in the Worlds End match-up.

#2. MJF has been away from the World Title for a long time

It has been a long time since MJF held the AEW World Championship in his career. He has been a former world champion in the company and had a tremendous run. Fans have been clamoring to see Friedman regain the championship. Despite coming close, he has been unable to capture the championship in the last two years.

The Salt of the Earth elevated the title's prestige to a further extent, only to lose to Samoa Joe at Worlds End in 2023. Therefore, if MJF becomes the champion at Worlds End 2025, it would be a full-circle moment. Moreover, it would add a new layer to Friedman's current character in All Elite Wrestling.

#1. The Salt of the Earth cannot afford a loss

Maxwell Jacob Friedman will compete in his first match since his return at AEW Worlds End 2025. He cannot afford to lose his first match upon his comeback. Besides, Friedman suffered some significant losses in his past few matches on AEW pay-per-views. Therefore, another loss could heavily affect his character's credibility in the company.

Therefore, in order to secure The Salt of the Earth's momentum, he has to win the AEW World Championship at Worlds End. Otherwise, it may put questions on the future of his character in the Jacksonville-based promotion. Besides, Tony Khan has managed to develop fans' interest in the Casino Gauntlet Battle Royal contract for a long time.

If MJF failed to execute it successfully, it could result in disappointment among the fans. Therefore, Friedman needs to become the new champion to keep up to his words and statements in the past few months.
