In last week’s “AEW Dynamite” episode, a match that was already electrifying took an unexpected turn when MJF managed to defeat Will Ospreay for the International Championship. But the real show-stealer was a seven-year-old girl, Mia Liszewski, who momentarily became the ultimate tag team partner by landing a punch on MJF as he brawled with Ospreay in the crowd.
The dynamic duo of Mia and her father, Stan Liszewski, made waves the next day on KATV in Arkansas. They shared the heartwarming moment when Ospreay, in a gesture of gratitude, gifted Mia one of his shirts backstage. “As you can see, he gave her one of his shirts and she’s wearing it,” Stan recounted. “It was a spur-of-the-moment thing. He saw somebody cheering right next to him and put MJF in a little reverse hold and was like, ‘Jump on in.’ It happened so fast, I wasn’t going to tell her no. So I was just like, ‘Go for it,’ and the whole crowd cheered her on.”
Not only did Mia walk away with a cool shirt, but she also became an internet sensation. The video of her epic punch on MJF racked up over 10 million views on her father’s “X” account in just six days. Stan couldn’t resist bragging, “Yes, that was my 7-year-old kid who just punched MJF on live TV.”
MJF, not one to let such moments pass quietly, is set to address his championship victory over Ospreay on this week’s upcoming “Dynamite” episode, having defeated “The Aerial Assassin” in just under an hour. We can only imagine what kind of zingers MJF has in store – perhaps a rematch with Mia? Stay tuned, folks!
