Since his debut, he went on to form his own stable, <strong>The Dynasty<\/strong>, with <strong>Richard Holliday<\/strong> and <strong>Alex Hammerstone<\/strong>, who would have lengthy feuds with <strong>The Hart Foundation<\/strong>&#8216;s <strong>Teddy Hart, Davey Boy Smith Jr.<\/strong>, and <strong>Brian Pillman Jr<\/strong>. In his tenure with MLW, MJF was the MLW World Middleweight Champion and won MLW World Tag Team gold with Holliday. With the departure of MJF, the Dynasty is now down one member, but with Holliday and Hammerstone still around &#8211; and the recent addition of <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprowrestling.com\/2019\/10\/06\/gino-medina-latest-luchador-to-join-mlw\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Gino Medina<\/strong><\/a> to the group &#8211; the Dynasty will look to start a new chapter in MLW history.
