Below are some top news stories of the day, involving MJF and Jazz.
• On this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, MJF said the following to Dustin Rhodes:
“You took 37 years to get out of your father’s shadow. And what’s sad about the whole thing, is that after all that struggle, you’re now in the shadow of your little baby brother.”
Former WWE referee Jimmy Korderas said the following about this indirect mention of Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes:
“Great job MJF of reminding your audience about the man who is on top in the other company!”
MJF replied:
“His brother.
My mentor.
A guy who helped shape me early on in my career.
Your old boss brainwashed you into believing we need to treat the fans like m*r*ns and pretend other Wrestling companies don’t exist.
You dumb ignorant bald grifting f**k.
…respectfully.”
The “old boss” MJF is referring to here is Vince McMahon.

• The TNA Knockouts division witnessed a historic moment this week as WWE Legend Jazz made a stunning return to iMPACT!

A dominant force in the early 2000s, Jazz showed she could still hold her own against some of today’s top stars, competing against Rosemary, Xia Brookside, and Jody Threat. However, despite her experience, she fell short, as Savannah Evans—thanks to an assist from NXT star Cora Jade—emerged victorious.
With the win, Evans has secured an opportunity to challenge TNA Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich next week.
Jazz’s unexpected return is even more surprising given that she last competed in TNA in 2021 before stepping away from in-ring competition.
