MJF and Darby Allin are fierce rivals in All Elite Wrestling. They have faced each other multiple times in the company over the past few years. However, recently, Maxwell Jacob Friedman broke his character to give props to The Daredevil for his recent world championship run in the company.

Allin won the AEW World Championship by defeating Maxwell at Dynamite: Spring BreakThru in April. He had an incredible run of 39 days where he defended his title eight times. The 33-year-old squared off with names like Brody King, Kevin Knight, PAC, Konosuke Takeshita, and other top AEW stars. At Double or Nothing, Darby dropped his title to MJF in an epic showdown to wind up his title reign.

Speaking with Justin Barrasso on Undisputed, MJF called Allin's reign as one of the greatest reigns of all time. He highlighted how The Daredevil proved to be a fighting champion through and through. The Salt of the Earth highlighted how frequent title defenses were a tough job for Darby. However, Max believes he was able to pull that off because he has the heart of a pro-wrestler.

Many fans believe that Darby Allin's title reign was long overdue. A lot of fans even claimed that he should have gotten a little longer championship run. With that said, it will be interesting to see when Allin will get his next title run in AEW.

MJF has been enjoying his fourth world championship run in All Elite Wrestling. The Salt of the Earth has been extremely confident with his performance, and he is looking forward to taking the title at AEW All In. However, ahead of the big pay-per-view, Max has a huge challenge in the form of Kenny Omega this week.

Last week, The Cleaner challenged Friedman for a world championship match. While MJF agreed to put his title on the line, he added a wild stipulation to make things interesting. He added that if Omega lost, he would never get another world title opportunity in All Elite Wrestling.

Without a shadow of doubt on himself, The Best Bout Machine accepted MJF's challenge. Therefore, this Wednesday night on Dynamite: Beach Break, Max will face Omega in an AEW World Championship showdown.
