10 Smartest Heel Plans In Wrestling History
2. MJF Uses Regal To Win The Big One
MJF's duplicitous actions as he edged closer to a showdown with Jon Moxley over the AEW World Championship at Full Gear 2022 were nothing short of magnificent.
After fooling the world into believing he'd potentially given the idea of not relying on back-up a chance and subtly convincing the villain of all villains that he was a potential "Devil" worth getting behind, Maxwell executed a devilish piece of business his Lordship could be proud of.
In the wake of The Firm taking out MJF, the Brit eventually had no choice but to offer his services to the seemingly "weak" star of tomorrow on the night of his main event battle with Will's BCC teammate. And yet another piece fell perfectly into place as the Dynamite Diamond Ring was traded out for a brass one en-route to World title victory.
And with this final stage of the master plan to topple Mox and set out on a Reign of Terror for the ages complete, Maxwell proceeded to coldly bin off Regal with a sickening cheap shot a few weeks later. Regal's services were no longer needed after extracting everything he needed from the well-respected veteran.
Simply put, the Triple B holder is better than you and just about everyone else playing the game at this moment... and you know it.
