Christopher Daniels Reveals His Recent AEW Segment With MJF Wasn't The Original Plan
Christopher Daniels has shed light on his recent AEW segment with MJF
MJF and Bryan Danielson’s feud over the AEW World Championship soon went personal, with MJF trying every trick in the book to get under Danielson’s skin and into his head.
On the February 15 edition of AEW Dynamite, MJF brought Danielson’s old Ring of Honor locker-room mate Christopher Daniels to the ring to denigrate Danielson, before it backfired spectacularly. In a recent interview with PWMania, Daniels revealed how the segment wasn’t the original plan:
“It was a bit of a surprise. That wasn’t the original plan. There was an idea to do something with someone else from Bryan’s past. At the 11th hour, it all fell through, and we were in Laredo and scrambled for a backup plan. I remember speaking with MJF and Jerry Lynn, and I told them I’ve known Bryan since 2001, so I could help out. Once I threw that suggestion out, we kicked the idea around. Max and I took an opportunity to go back and forth about what my relationship with Bryan was, and how we would steer this particular segment. I was really happy. I’m always happy to contribute to the on-screen product,” said Daniels.
MJF and Danielson are set to clash in a 60-Minute Iron Man Match for the AEW World Championship at AEW Revolution 2023 on March 5.
