#2 MJF throws in the towel and turns heel

Was that beer-throwing fan a plant? It seemed almost too perfect to be by accident. But the fans have always hated MJF. It is time he actually embraces his dark side in All Elite Wrestling.
Cody versus Chris Jericho was an emotional World Title match. Cody has become one of the most sympathetic baby faces in pro wrestling. Adding the lack of future world title chances stipulation seemed to get the crowd behind Cody in a major way.

The match picked up when Cody got a brutal cut above his eye brow. It became a case of Chris Jericho repeatedly trying to put away Cody, who refused to give up. Time and time again, Jericho failed at getting the third count on Cody.
Until he put on the Liontamer Submission and MJF literally threw in the towel on Cody’s behalf. Thanks to MJF, Cody will never get a title shot again.
Then, as Cody and MJF discussed the ending in the ring, the expected finally happened. MJF turned on his “best friend” Cody. It has been a slow-brewing angle and one that could led to some amazing matches in the months to come.
