The AEW 2023 Revolution event featured a variety of matches. Especially the gore in the Texas Deathmatch between Jon Moxley and ‘Hangman’ Adam Page shocked everyone. Fans were awaiting the main event between AEW champion MJF and Bryan Danielson. And they were not disappointed by what they saw.
The ‘Iron Man’ battle between the loudmouth and the veteran Bryan seemed ideal on paper. And the eventual match-up served up more than what was expected. Fans were particularly impressed with a unique and thought-provoking spot during the match
MJF pinned Danielson twice in quick succession, a rare sight in an Iron Man Match. However, he used a low blow to execute the pinfalls. A move that should have added to the challenger’s score. Nevertheless, the back-to-back cover by the champion drew a lot of praise from the fans.

Friedman was up to his usual antics during the match. His heel actions against a kid in the crowd brought on the wrath of social media on him. The AEW champion intentionally spilled a drink on a young fan. He is turning out to be a tough nut to crack. Whether inside the wrestling ring or outside it.
