  • 30-year-old MJF regained the AEW World Championship on Sunday in New York, pinning Darby Allin with an avalanche Tombstone Piledriver to become a three-time champion.
  • The title shot carried a hair-vs-title stipulation after Allin had taken the belt from MJF more than a month earlier, and MJF survived Allin’s Coffin Drop and Scorpion Death Lock attempts to avoid being shaved bald.
  • Queens produced the match’s biggest spot when Allin leapt from scaffolding through MJF and a table, but Allin emerged bleeding from the back of the head and could not finish the bout.
  • The fallout continued after the bell when TNT champion Kevin Knight attacked Allin on a stretcher with a UFO Splash, setting up a likely explanation on Wednesday’s 'Dynamite'.
