A major title match for AEW Revolution has been confirmed after the results of Grand Slam Australia. Fans now know about Maxwell Jacob Friedman’s (MJF) next title defense.
Several top stars of the Jacksonville-based promotion were down under for Grand Slam 2026. The show featured several big-money title matches and some hard-hitting encounters. Major stars such as Friedman, Hangman Page, Jon Moxley, Toni Storm, Konosuke Takeshita, Kyle Fletcher, Andrade, and many more were in action during the event.
In the main event of the show, Max defended the AEW World Championship against Brody King. Despite King’s physical dominance, The Salt of the Earth managed to walk out with the win, continuing his title reign. Earlier in the night Hangman Page faced off against Andrade in a high-stakes one-on-one matchup. The winner of the match would go on to challenge the AEW Champion at Revolution. Page won the match with a brutal Buckshot Lariat and ended Andrade’s undefeated streak in AEW. With this win, Page is set to reignite his rivalry with MJF for the AEW title. The two men will face off in a high-profile championship match at Revolution 2026.
MJF was confident of his chances at AEW Grand Slam Australia
The AEW World Champion was confident of beating Brody King ahead of their match. Despite a loss to the challenger on Dynamite in less than two minutes, MJF was sure of a win in Sydney.
During an interview, the star stated that he allowed himself to be distracted by Hangman Page during the match on Dynamite. However, the champ promised to be super focused during rematch, and claimed that Brody was not on his level.
Friedman held on to the AEW title for a record 406 days during his last title reign. It will be interesting to see how his current reign pans out in the coming months.

![Heathrow has said passenger numbers were 60% lower in November than before the coronavirus pandemic and there were “high cancellations” among business travellers concerned about being trapped overseas for Christmas as Omicron spreads. The UK’s largest airport said the government’s travel restrictions had dealt a fresh blow to travel confidence and predicted it was likely to take several years for passenger numbers to return to pre-pandemic levels. This week ministers said passengers arriving in the UK would have to take a pre-departure Covid test, as well as a post-flight test, because of fears about the spread of the new variant. “[The] high level of cancellations by business travellers concerned about being trapped overseas because of pre-departure testing shows the potential harm to the economy of travel restrictions,” the airport said in an update. Heathrow said the drop in traveller confidence owing to the new travel restrictions had negated the benefit of reopening the all-important corridor to North America for business and holiday travel last month. Eleven African countries have been added to the government’s red list, requiring travellers to quarantine before reuniting with families. “By allowing Brits to isolate at home, ministers can make sure they are reunited with their loved ones this Christmas,” said John Holland-Kaye, the chief executive of Heathrow. “It would send a strong signal that restrictions on travel will be removed as soon as safely possible to give passengers the confidence to book for 2022, opening up thousands of new jobs for local people at Heathrow. Let’s reunite families for Christmas.” Heathrow said that if the government could safely signal that restrictions would be lifted soon, then employers at Heathrow would have the confidence to hire thousands of staff in anticipation of a boost in business next summer. The airport is expecting a slow start to 2022, finishing next year with about 45 million passengers – just over half of pre-pandemic levels. This week Tui, Europe’s largest package holiday operator, said it expected bookings for next summer to bounce back to 2019 levels. However, Heathrow said on Friday not to expect the aviation industry to recover for several years. “We do not expect that international travel will recover to 2019 levels until at least all travel restrictions (including testing) are removed from all the markets that we serve, at both ends of the route, and there is no risk of new restrictions, such as quarantine, being imposed,” the airport said.](https://wordupnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/shutterstock_1100012546-scaled-400x240.jpg)
