Nixed WWE RAW plans due to AEW star MJF's controversial act disclosed - Reports

Recent reports suggest that WWE's plans for a segment on RAW were nixed due to the controversial actions of AEW World Champion MJF.

At Revolution 2023, Maxwell threw a drink at a child, which sparked some backlash from fans. The world champion successfully defended his title in a 60-minute Iron Man match against Bryan Danielson. At one point during the match, The Salt of The Earth entered the crowd to throw a drink at a kid in the crowd.

According to a recent report from Fightful Select, a planned segment on RAW in which a wrestler would throw a drink in another's face during a match. As news of the segment spread, some people backstage reportedly thought it was a shot at All Elite Wrestling or a reference to the incident.

However, it has since been confirmed that the planned RAW segment was already in the works before Revolution and that it was not intended as a reference to MJF or AEW. Much of the creative structure for RAW was already planned before the pay-per-view event even aired.

As per the report, one WWE talent even speculated that the segment may have been nixed as a result of the MJF incident, even though it was already planned before the incident occurred.
