MJF Wins AEW International Title

MJF Wins AEW International Title, Mercedes Moné Retains TBS Title on AEW Dynamite 250

In a night filled with intense action and dramatic moments, AEW Dynamite celebrated its 250th episode with matches that shook the foundations of the All Elite Wrestling universe. Two significant title matches headlined the event, with MJF capturing the AEW International Title and Mercedes Moné successfully defending her TBS Title.

The main event saw Maxwell Jacob Friedman, known to fans as MJF, challenge for the AEW International Title. Known for his brash attitude and sharp wit, MJF faced off against the reigning champion, Orange Cassidy. Cassidy, with his laid-back demeanor and unorthodox style, has been a fan favorite and a formidable champion.

From the opening bell, the match was a showcase of contrasting styles. MJF, a master of mind games and technical wrestling, used every trick in the book to gain the upper hand. Cassidy, on the other hand, relied on his agility and quick reflexes to keep the challenger at bay.

The turning point came when MJF, after a series of near falls and high-risk maneuvers, capitalized on a rare mistake by Cassidy. As Cassidy attempted his signature Orange Punch, MJF countered with a low blow, unseen by the referee. Seizing the moment, MJF delivered his finishing move, the Heatseeker, and pinned Cassidy to become the new AEW International Champion.

The arena erupted in a mix of boos and cheers as MJF celebrated his victory, cementing his status as one of AEW’s top stars. His win not only adds another accolade to his growing list of achievements but also sets the stage for new rivalries and challenges in the coming weeks.

Earlier in the evening, Mercedes Moné defended her TBS Title against Nyla Rose. Moné, who has dominated the women’s division since her arrival in AEW, faced one of her toughest challenges in Rose, a former AEW Women’s World Champion known for her power and intensity.

The match was a hard-hitting affair, with both competitors showcasing their strengths. Rose’s brute force was on full display as she overpowered Moné in the early stages, delivering a series of devastating slams and strikes. However, Moné, known for her resilience and technical prowess, fought back with a combination of submission holds and high-flying moves.

In a dramatic climax, Moné managed to escape Rose’s Beast Bomb attempt and countered with her patented Moné Maker, securing the pinfall victory. With this win, Moné retains her TBS Title and continues her dominant reign in AEW’s women’s division.

The 250th episode of Dynamite also featured several other notable matches and segments. The Young Bucks faced FTR in a tag team bout that thrilled the audience with its high-octane action and technical mastery. Both teams, considered among the best in the world, delivered a clinic in tag team wrestling, with the Young Bucks ultimately securing the win after a hard-fought battle.

In addition, a heated confrontation between Chris Jericho and Jon Moxley set the stage for a future showdown between the two AEW veterans. The tension between Jericho and Moxley, both former AEW World Champions, has been building for weeks, and their exchange on Dynamite 250 added more fuel to the fire.

The night’s festivities also included a tribute to AEW’s journey over the past 250 episodes, highlighting memorable moments, legendary matches, and the growth of the promotion since its inception. AEW President Tony Khan addressed the crowd, thanking the fans, wrestlers, and staff for their unwavering support and dedication.

With MJF’s victory and Moné’s successful title defense, AEW’s landscape continues to evolve, promising exciting storylines and rivalries in the weeks ahead. As Dynamite moves forward, fans can expect more high-stakes matches, dramatic twists, and unforgettable moments that have become synonymous with All Elite Wrestling.
