JS Revealing Pattern event undefined issue

I am using the modular design pattern for JS and I keep running into issues when using arguments bound functions. I have a particular function that I would like to bind to different events to keep from having to write the function for each bound event. The only difference in the function, or the argument, is the table that will be updated. The problem is that when I build a function with the arguments I need and pass those arguments to bound events, I get an undefined error, in the console, on load. Keep in mind, I want to stick with this design pattern for the security it offers.

Here is my JS:

var Users = (function(){

    var $addRoleForm = $('#addUserRole');
    var $rolesTableBody = $('#table-roles tbody');

    $addRoleForm.submit(ajaxUpdate(event, $rolesTableBody));

    function ajaxUpdate(event, tableName) {
        event.preventDefault();
        event.stopPropagation();
        var url = this.action;
        var data = $(this).serialize();
        var $this = $(this);
        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: url,
            dataType: 'json',
            data: data,
            success: function(data) {
                if(data.st === 0){
                    $messageContainer.html('<p class="alert alert-danger">' + data.msg + '</p>');
                    setTimeout(function(){
                        $messageContainer.hide();
                    }, 7000);
                } else {
                    $messageContainer.html('<p class="alert alert-success">' + data.msg + '</p>');
                    tableName.fadeOut().html('').html(data.build).fadeIn();
                    $this.find('input').val('');
                    setTimeout(function(){
                        $messageContainer.hide();
                    }, 7000);
                }
            },
            error: function(xhr, status, error){
                console.log(xhr.responseText);
            }
        });

    }
})();

Here is the error I get in the console, on load:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'preventDefault' of undefined

I have tried to bind the event like this: $addRoleForm.on('submit', ajaxUpdate(event, $rolesTableBody)); and receive the same results.

Any ideas how to fix this?
