Maxwell Jacob Friedman, popularly known as MJF in AEW, has given himself a new name. This came following the events that occurred at Grand Slam: Mexico this week at the historic Arena Mexico venue.
At the show, The Salt of the Earth was scheduled to battle the international sensation Mistico (FKA Sin Cara). Moreover, he had also resurrected his captivating 'American Hero' gimmick for one night only. The duo delivered a highly compelling showdown, although it ended quite differently than expected.
MJF utilized a low blow on Mistico following multiple attempts to secure a three-count in his fit of rage and lost the match. Furthermore, he committed the despicable act of unmasking the former WWE Superstar and wearing it himself. He laid a beatdown on him with his Hurt Syndicate faction members until a band of CMLL luchadors came to his aid.
Following the match at Grand Slam Mexico, the Wolf of Wrestling christened himself with a new name via his Instagram and claimed to be better than Mistico.
