Amidst all the devil stuff, Joe is definitely getting that title shot. Seen a lot of pundits online think Joe is the one to take the title. MJF’s all busted up. What say you, should Joe become AEW Champion?

If Swerve is the Devil, I'd have Swerve beat MJF.
If he is not, have Swerve beat Joe. It would make Joe's TV title relinquishing less stupid if it actually did help him win the belt.

Only Swerve should beat MJF.

I'm not sure. I'm not as down on MJF face run as others but I am getting to the point where he should drop title soon. But I think their better options then Joe, as great as he is. Swerve for example

Yes, but not before Swerve does.

Swerve for example I am not down on MJF, and think he has done an excellent job after a slow-ish start, but I do feel like he's had a run that has accomplished around as much as it is going to, minus whoever he loses it to. I guess that's another factor: I am more fine with Joe winning it if he's not going to be champion a super long time. If Swerve is the Devil, you can have the two feud after MJF loses the title since the Devil has obviously been part of wearing him down, and Joe has a feud or two and racks up some defenses, only to lose it to Swerve after like 3 months, especially if you want Swerve to get a long reign.

Yeah, it would justify the 4 month fued and a period of hotshotting the aew title around would be welcome at this point.

They’re kinda backed into the corner with MJF’s injuries. Joe winning with the Devil revealed afterwards would be a good way to write Max off for a bit to recover.

The Devil can be a non-title feud and also give Max some time off to heal up. Joe as even a transitional champion would be really cool to see.

I love Joe but I’d be cool if he didn’t. Kinda set up for MJF retaining if it’s in his backyard really. Then announcing he’s signed a new contract.

They've been building this Joe-MJF feud for a LONG damn time.
Joe would look like a huge dummy if he lost to MJF again after already getting beat the first time and then relinquishing his ROH belt
I'd have Joe get the belt off MJF and then have that lead to Swerve out heeling him 2-3 months later to take it.

I really really really want Swerve to get the belt. As good as Joe can be, I really don't want or need a Joe run.

No. Joe doesn't need it and I'd rather see someone like Swerve win the title instead.

Yes, give Joe a short run with the title. Dude has been great this year and I see no harm in giving him a short 2-3 month reign.

The WWE and NJPW top titles are probably out of his reach at this point in his career but it would be nice to say he held the top title for ROH/TNA/NXT/AEW.

He'd better, or this baseball style locker room celebration I've got all planned out will go to waste.

I’m okay with the idea of Joe winning the belt at some point, but I don’t think he should be the guy who beats MJF

Yes, if he then loses it to SWERVE!

I always think how much better the first MJF/Joe match would have been if they had somehow called an audible at Wembley and had Joe beat Punk. Would have then been MJF/Joe in a 'unification' match at Grandslam. Also the Wembley crowd were gagging for Joe to beat Punk too.
