AEW Devil Revealed

It's a bit of a shocker that the Devil mystery didn't play any part in proceedings towards the end of Full Gear. Most fans thought going in that the masked character would either reveal himself/herself and team with MJF during the ROH Tag Title bout, or make their mark during the main event vs. Jay White.

Nope.

AEW still has that story beat in their back pockets, but here's a word of warning: It'll need to be something good after all this build. CM Punk is reportedly out of the running, and so is Britt Baker. Although Adam Cole would be quite the swerve, he'd probs play before shrugged shoulders. Yep, this must be big and impactful.

Look out for the Devil stuff to resume now Full Gear is out the way. Just who's it gonna be? A brand new worker? Someone already on the roster? MJF's alter-ego as some sort of homage to Bray Wyatt? Roll on finding out!
