Matt Hardy comments on the storyline between MJF, Samoa Joe, and The Devil.
On the December 27 episode of AEW Dynamite, MJF lost the ROH World Tag Team Championships to two masked men, who were led by The Devil. After the conclusion of the bout, Samoa Joe smacked MJF with a chair, revealing that he had been working with The Devil this entire time.
This angle added even more tension to the match between Joe and MJF, which will likely headline the Worlds End pay-per-view on Saturday, December 30.
On the latest episode of The Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy podcast, Hardy said that he has a sneaking suspicion that Matt Taven and Mike Bennett were the masked duo that won the ROH World Tag Team Championships from MJF
“That’s how I read it, apparently people thought Joe is the devil, is that why Tony cleared that up on the media call? He clarified that on the media call, correct? So I don’t know, it’s going to be interesting. I wonder who the two masked men were that actually won the tag titles from MJF, the Ring Of Honor World Tag Team Titles. I’m curious on who that’s going to be. For some reason, I have a sneaking suspicion it could be The Kingdom, but who knows? I don’t know anything, I don’t know anymore than you and I haven’t even tried to press to know more. I’m very curious on what the ultimate payoff and the big reveal is going to be this Saturday at Worlds End.”
