He still is a heel. The narrative is that only Cole can't see it (unless he's stringing him along which I predict is the case).

This is the...5th time he's done the fake nice guy/potentially reformed character bit? He does it every year. Cody 2019. Jericho 2020/21. Punk early 22. Last year again prior to All Out. Now with Cole. He always keeps it going for a bit then "turns" and calls us all idiots for falling for it and trusting the devil. It's the most prominent MJF storyline trope after making his opponent run a gauntlet for weeks before facing him.
The timing of it just 6-8 weeks before All In makes this one even more obvious. They're not going to pivot last minute to another random match for their world champion at their biggest show over. Surely his opponent will be Cole and I doubt it will be a friendly face v face match.

I’m sure that at some point he’ll just go back to his cringey promos and be like “you all fell for it! I’M EVIL! Hahahahahahaha”. It’s what he does.

The world title throws a spanner in the works. Without the title, everyone involved might think "hey we're onto something here, let's keep this going", but with him being champion the tag story is secondary

He will be but they're making a gigantic mistake not having him be a face or at least blur the lines. People have wanted to cheer for this guy for ages now and his heel shit has gotten very old.

It's theoretically possible to keep both of them face and have them both turn on each other. That's the Looney Tunes option

So since they seem to be committing to face MJF at least for the short-term, does that put the kibosh on the "bidding war of 2024" storyline? Here's hoping!
