>>13558942What went wrong is that it ever happened.
It happened regardless of Punks various exits and disappearances, I might not remember the timeline 100% correctly so I think it was around the Brawl Out one before or after it when MJF returned with the mask as mystery to pick up the win of the ladder match handed to him by Rush and Andrade... don't even get me started how dumb that was with them literally forgetting MJF worked with Los InWhatevers month later.
So quick recap
> the whole devil thing spouted from this CM Punk ROH promo, https://www.cagematch.net/?id=93&nr=3>MJF v Punk feud was one the best ones in AEW despite the kvetching so I think they were going for a rematch angle>Punk gets suspended>"The devil" walks in to grab whatever price it was in that match>Literally everyone knows it's MJF because he walked to the ring the same way he always does so it's not exactly a mystery who it is>Instead of kayfabing that it's still a mystery for entertainment it's immediately revealed in the same show So now Punks gone and MJF starts his "Iuamthodevyl" whining as if it's just a solo act to no one in particular because he can't reference Punk.
>The whole devil gimmick is shit and cringe. >DOESNT FUCKING WRESTLE or do title defenses for months>Gets involved with Cancerpatient Bay Bay for a comedy tag, >It's cringe and doesn't match anything else in the show but that's the way AEW fans like it, a buffet of everything with every spice at the same time. >Atleast it's not the Devil shit anymore... oh shit now the devil is back! >Well it can't fucking be CM Punk now can it, he gone (before this or around this time he was fired)>Fuck it, it was actually Cole. BORING!Every single turn and pay off of the thing was shit and uninspired and it should have been completely abandoned the night he took the mask off. There was no point doing it without Punk because that feud was the meat of the whole thing.
