Despite finally getting the AEW World Championship match he had been demanding for weeks, Mark Briscoe got here up short on the July 1 episode of “AEW Dynamite.”<\/p>\n
He was unsuccessful in his try and dethrone MJF and take his beloved “Triple B” for himself, and was forced to pay the value after the match was over. Maxwell Jacob Friedman brutally assaulted Briscoe after the match was over, and had it not been for Kenny Omega, that beating could have gone on lots longer. It seems as if Briscoe took a lot of a beating that this week’s episode of “Dynamite” may need been the last time AEW fans see Briscoe in the corporate for some time, at the very least in response to Orange Cassidy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

During a backstage interview on the July 2 episode of “AEW Collision,”\u00a0Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, and Roderick Strong were asked concerning the busy week that The Conglomeration have had. Cassidy said that while the blokes got the job done within the 12-man Steel Cage Match at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2026, the group has taken some hits as of late. He claimed that Briscoe was so badly injured in his match with MJF that the group doesn’t know when he’ll return.\u00a0Cassidy also noted that Tomohiro Ishii, who was attacked backstage on the June 17 episode of “Dynamite” and subsequently taken out of the Forbidden Door show will even be out of motion for an unknown period of time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With that said, Cassidy did have some excellent news as he revealed that Willow Nightingale will likely be returning to AEW sooner fairly than later, which was later confirmed by a pre-taped vignette of Nightingale preparing for her comeback. Nightingale was forced to not only vacate the AEW TBS Championship consequently of her injury (which has since been won by Hikaru Shida), but was forced to withdraw from the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament that she was heavily slated to win.<\/p>\n
\n“With all the pieces I’ve done, I’m still not one of the best. But this 12 months I can prove it, and I’ll.”<\/p>\n
Along with her impending return on the horizon, @WillowWrestles<\/a> is able to get back to where she once was!<\/p>\n
