Since returning to AEW, fans have wondered who the mysterious figure behind the Devil mask is. MJF has been the center of attention.
Many have known that MJF used to wear the Devil mask. Even Bullet Club Gold alleged that Maxwell was the one in the mask when the figure attacked Jay White, as this was his mask in the first place.
However, the Salt of the Earth has boldly denied involvement, claiming his mask was stolen from his locker room. Fans have been wondering who the mystery man behind the Devil mask is. However, Maxwell could solve it by exposing the mystery man, who could be none other than Roderick Strong.
Strong has a grudge against the AEW World Champion, and their animosity has been on full display, especially since Maxwell became friends with Adam Cole. The former WWE Superstar has been jealous of him for months.

This would make sense for several reasons. First, it would explain why the Devil Mask figure has appeared on AEW programming since MJF and Cole's growing friendship. Second, it would motivate Strong to attack Jay White, who is set to challenge the Salt of the Earth for the title at Full Gear.
This could create a feud between Maxwell and Strong, which has been building for months with Adam Cole in the mix. Is it possible that Roderick Strong has been the one donning the Devil mask all along? It will be interesting to see how this storyline unfolds.
