AEW’s Current Plans for Worlds End 2025 Main Event Revealed

AEW is lining up a blockbuster main event for Worlds End on December 27, 2025, and it looks like the AEW World Championship will be on the line in a massive four-way match. According to Self Made Pro, the internal plan as of last week is for Samoa Joe to defend the title against Swerve Strickland, Hangman Adam Page, and a returning MJF.

Speaking during a Self Made session, the source explained that AEW’s current creative direction is to bring MJF back late in the build to cash in his Casino Gauntlet contract and insert himself into the match.

“So, as we all know, Samoa Joe is your AEW Men’s World Champion. He won the championship at Full Gear. He defeated Hangman Page. There’s been a lot of speculation about what’s going to happen at World’s End. The expectation among most people in AEW is that the AEW Men’s World Championship will be decided in a four-way match at World’s End between Joe, Hangman, Swerve and MJF.”

The report went on to confirm how MJF’s return is expected to factor into the storyline in the coming weeks.

“So that is the report: it is a four-way. Late in the build, MJF is going to return and cash in that thing that he has, and make it a four-way match for World’s End. I can tell you for a fact that at least as of a week ago, the plan for World’s End is a main event four-way match for the AEW Men’s World Championship.”

Samoa Joe captured the AEW World Title at Full Gear after defeating Hangman Page, and shortly after the match, Swerve Strickland made his shocking return to confront Joe in front of the crowd. This confrontation set the stage for a new challenger, but the twist with MJF re-entering the fold adds another layer to the title scene.

AEW has been working on creative plans for MJF’s return, and this development seems to be part of that strategy. With four major names all colliding in one match, AEW is aiming to end 2025 with a main event that has the potential to shift the company’s direction heading into the new year.

Do you think AEW should have MJF reclaim the title, or is it time for Swerve, Hangman, or Joe to close out the year on top? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
