MJF

MJF is joining the cryptocurrency game.

The AEW star announced his new $MJF crypto Thursday in a typically in-character Twitter statement.

Cryptocurrency and non-fungible tokens have been the most popular forms of investment in 2021, with Dogecoin in particular taking off as a meme-turned-actual currency.

MJF's coin promises special access to the leader of The Pinnacle, along with a community of fans to discuss things—most likely MJF—so think of it as a combination of crypto and fan club.

Even if this doesn't turn into the next Dogecoin, MJF will have something new to antagonize fans with on Dynamite.

Thanks to the Blood and Guts main event between The Pinnacle and The Inner Circle, AEW Dynamite beat WWE NXT in viewership this week.

According to Showbuzz Daily, Dynamite averaged 1.090 million viewers during its two-hour broadcast on TNT on Wednesday. Meanwhile, NXT brought in 761,000 viewers during its two-hour Tuesday show on USA Network.

Not only did AEW win the ratings battle, but it also achieved a notable milestone:

Dynamite was headlined by the highly anticipated first Blood and Guts match in AEW history. Blood and Guts was essentially an offshoot of the WarGames concept created by the late Dusty Rhodes, and it featured two teams of five going to battle.

The Pinnacle (made up of MJF, Wardlow, FTR and Shawn Spears) defeated The Inner Circle (comprised of Chris Jericho, Sammy Guevara, Jake Hager, Santana and Ortiz) when The Inner Circle surrendered to prevent MJF from throwing Jericho off the top of the cage.

Even so, MJF threw Jericho from the cage anyway, sending him crashing through the stage, which may have been AEW's way of writing him off television so he can go on tour with his band Fozzy.

Also on Dynamite, Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston beat Kenny Omega and Michael Nakazawa; Cody Rhodes defeated QT Marshall; SCU won an AEW World Tag Team Championship eliminator match; Britt Baker won a squash match.

AEW made Baker vs. AEW Women's champion Hikaru Shida official for Double or Nothing as well and announced a match between Orange Cassidy and Pac to determine Omega's opponent for Double or Nothing.

While much of the hype within the wrestling world was focused on Blood and Guts, NXT put on an excellent show in its own right, headlined by a street fight for the NXT Women's Tag Team Championships.

Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell beat Shotzi Blackheart and Ember Moon to become the new NXT Women's Tag Team champions, marking LeRae's first title win of any kind in WWE.

NXT also featured a great opening bout, which saw Isaiah "Swerve" Scott beat Leon Ruff in a Falls Count Anywhere match with help from his entourage.

Additionally, Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher beat The Grizzled Young Veterans; Sarray defeated Zayda Ramier; LA Knight beat Jake Atlas; Cameron Grimes won a squash match.

To top it off, several Superstars set their sights on Karrion Kross and the NXT Championship, including Finn Balor, Kyle O'Reilly and Pete Dunne, while Johnny Gargano and Austin Theory took Kross out ahead of Kross vs. Theory next week.

The Pinnacle defeated The Inner Circle in All Elite Wrestling's first-ever Blood and Guts match on Wednesday's episode of AEW Dynamite at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida.

The bloody affair ended when members of The Inner Circle gave up to prevent MJF from throwing Chris Jericho off the top of the cage. MJF ultimately wound up tossing Jericho off anyway in a moment that should cement his spot as the top heel in the company. 

Blood and Guts is AEW's version of WarGames, which is a two-ring cage match that was created by the father of Cody and Dustin Rhodes, "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes, during his time in NWA in the 1980s.

Cody made it clear long ago that he wanted to incorporate his father's brainchild into the AEW product, and it finally happened Wednesday with the top two stables in AEW doing battle in one of the most dangerous and brutal match types in wrestling.

The first Blood and Guts match was supposed to happen last year with The Inner Circle facing The Elite, but AEW ended up calling off the match because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Since then, most members of The Elite have gone their separate ways, necessitating a new team to step in and contest The Inner Circle.

Things came into focus several weeks ago when MJF turned on The Inner Circle after feigning loyalty to the group. MJF used The Inner Circle as a vehicle to create his own stable featuring Wardlow, FTR, Shawn Spears and manager Tully Blanchard.

The Pinnacle debuted in the most impactful way possible, beating Inner Circle members Chris Jericho, Sammy Guevara, Jake Hager, Santana and Ortiz to a bloody pulp.

It wasn't long before The Inner Circle got some revenge on The Pinnacle by attacking them backstage, which was the ideal setup for the first Blood and Guts match in AEW history.

Members of both teams cut passionate promos prior to Blood and Guts, which effectively hyped up the match and got fans excited to see the brutality that was about to ensue.

Although there were no titles on the line, the match was a significant one in terms of determining the balance of power in AEW and possibly setting the stage for one of the two stables to go after the AEW world title.

The Pinnacle winning was fitting since it is a new group that badly needed a signature win, but Jericho and The Inner Circle left it all in the ring and should still be in line for some big storylines moving forward.

The upcoming Blood and Guts match between The Inner Circle and The Pinnacle on the May 5 edition of AEW Dynamite will reportedly be the sole focus of the show. 

According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio (h/t WrestlingInc.com's Jason Ounpraseuth), Blood and Guts will be the only match to take place on the May 5 Dynamite.

Meltzer noted that there may be some pre-taped segments that are played throughout the episode, but there won't be any other bouts.

The first Blood and Guts match, which will be modeled after the WarGames concept created by the late Dusty Rhodes, was supposed to happen last year. The match would have pitted The Inner Circle vs. The Elite, but the match was canceled amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

While The Inner Circle will still be part of Blood and Guts, The Elite is being replaced by The Pinnacle, which is a new group headed by MJF.

The Pinnacle came into existence several weeks ago when MJF turned his back on Chris Jericho and The Inner Circle and created his own stable that includes Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood of FTR, Wardlow, Shawn Spears and manager Tully Blanchard.

Meanwhile, the original version of The Inner Circle sans MJF and Wardlow is back in business with Jericho, Sammy Guevara, Jake Hager, Santana and Ortiz comprising the team.

WarGames matches have traditionally been long, brutal and bloody battles that can last upwards of an hour, so it is possible for AEW to stretch it out over the course of a two-hour show.

If it can add in some extras such as promos and backstage segments meant to keep other rivalries going, AEW will have enough content to fill the episode.

Blood and Guts figures to be a landmark match in the history of AEW, so it unquestionably warrants its own spotlight, and all signs point to it receiving precisely that on May 5.
