Who will the masked devil be?

[rajaah]

Not who was playing the role last night, but who will it eventually turn out to be at Full Gear or whenever we get it unmasked?

I love mystery angles like this, Aces and Eights was my jam. Though you might recall that the A&E "President" was played by a smaller guy (Almost definitely Bischoff, from the voice inflection) than who it ended up being when it was unmasked (Bully Ray). So bear that in mind when answering. It could be someone who isn't even available yet or with the company currently, with the current person being a stand-in.

Edit: The 1989 Denver Broncos are basically the "Other, say below" option

Adam Cole, bay bay. Aligned with Strong, the Kingdom and KOR.

[Citizen Snips]

Sting! Tired of the label of “wrestling’s most trusting fool”, the Stinger embraces the dark side!

[XIII]

He unmasks revealing MJF.

MJF: “that’s MJF, brother!”

Where is the option for "Griff Garrison"?

Who the f*** is Griff Garrison?

It's pretty early on to make a prediction, but here goes:

1. If this is going to be a long-term (several months) story and Cole's injury is being slightly exaggerated, I think there's an outside chance this winds up being Cole.

2. If it's a short-term thing, I think it could very well be Copeland.

3. I'd like it to be revealed that it's just a bunch of goons that Swerve hired to start causing chaos in the world title scene while he deals with Hangman.

The fascination for HEATZ from fans and promotes alike is fascinating and destructing.

The Cole-MJF Friendship could be something big for years to come

If I knew how to edit the poll without removing it I'd add Swerve to the list. I think it's entirely possible they're building Swerve to be their next big villain. If he can defeat Hangman at the PPV he's got a pretty clear path to go after the world title.

I think destructive is a bit hyperbolic. There's a story to be told in both a turn now and in a turn down the line, and I don't think either would really harm the characters.

Jay White beat himself up. The backstage fight was just a green screen.

The reveal of Jay White flinging himself into things in front of a green screen would be absolutely hysterical.

[Talent Name]

You guessed it, Frank Stallone

[Allie Kitsune]

Joe Hayabusa. (Ken in the 1989 localization).

[kingoftheindies]

I think the plan is or at least was Adam Cole. With the injury it may be longer

[jm]

It'll be Adam Cole, and it'll be unfortunate. You can go with MJF/Cole as a unit for so long. It's too early to pull the plug because of the injury. Once you have one of them turn on the other, you can never put them together again as a unit. The masked devil will be Adam Cole, and it'll be for the worse.

[Mozenrath]

Going to go on a longshot for funsies and say David Finlay.

I also don't want to see them break up and will be sad if they go that route. Adam Cole is an outstanding heel though. And at the end of the day, being sad at their breakup means they did it right.

Also plz no Mustafa Ali / Retribution. Copying WWE creative, especially weaksauce creative, is the last thing AEW should be doing.

Obviously the answer is Bobby Fish. Where's the lie?
