The Devil and its goons continue to unleash their wrath on AEW Dynamite, regularly and now they are coming for championships, as well. While the identity of the masked men is yet to be revealed, they have now been awarded a shot at the tag titles, solely held by MJF.
MJF is the reigning AEW World Champion from last year but he still has responsibilities as ROH World Tag Team Champion. He promised Adam Cole, his injured partner that he would continue to defend the titles alongside the new AEW World Championship Number One Contender Samoa Joe and he stays true to his promise.
