Tony Khan overturns rigged stipulation on AEW Dynamite
Summary
– MJF attempts to control Revolution stipulation with coin flip
– Adam Page challenges legitimacy of result during Dynamite segment
– AEW President Tony Khan mandates Texas Death Match
MJF entered the February 25, 2026, episode of AEW Dynamite intending to dictate the terms of his AEW World Championship defense at Revolution. By the end of the segment, that plan had unraveled entirely.
During the second hour of the broadcast, MJF confronted Adam Page in the ring and introduced a coin flip to determine the stipulation. One side would result in a Texas Death Match, while the other created a no disqualification match heavily tilted in MJF’s favor, allowing him to use weapons while restricting Page.
Page accepted the challenge but warned that a Texas Death Match would strip away MJF’s shortcuts and expose him. He insisted he could defeat the champion under any rules and welcomed a fight that would finally settle their rivalry.
When the coin landed, it appeared to favor MJF. Page immediately questioned its authenticity and demanded to inspect it. MJF refused and attempted to leave the ring rather than prove the result. His actions intensified suspicion as other competitors blocked his exit and forced him to remain.
The situation escalated when Tony Schiavone announced that AEW President Tony Khan had reviewed the matter and determined the coin had been rigged. As a result, Khan overturned the original outcome.
Instead of securing the advantage he sought, MJF will now defend the AEW World Championship against Adam Page in a Texas Death Match at AEW Revolution.
