On the latest episode of Dynamite, The Blackpool Combat Club member faced the Salt of the Earth. After much back-and-forth, Maxwell grabbed Yuta in a clean submission lock by the latter's arm. While Yuta was able to get out once, he was forced to tap out the second time to the arm lock.
Post-match, Wheeler Yuta attempted to shake hands with MJF. However, Lee Moriarty and Stokely Hathaway interrupted the AEW segment as Lee decked Yuta from behind.

Surprisingly, MJF seemed conflicted with the heel tactics used by the Firm. Before he had the chance to address the situation, William Regal entered the ring with brass knuckles. A staredown later, Maxwell exited the scene with fans chanting Regal's name.
The short faceoff between the veteran and MJF, coupled with the latter's subtle face-turning tease, has fans intrigued on social media. A number of posts flooded Twitter within minutes of the segment ending.

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
Apart from reporting on pro wrestling, Shubhajit enjoys competitive gaming and reading.
