AEW fans are trying to figure out who is The Joker who won the Casino Ladder match at All Out 2022.
One of the big matches at AEW All Out 2022 was a Casino Ladder match, with the winner receiving a future AEW World Championship match. Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, Penta El Zero Miedo, Rey Fenix, Andrade El Idolo, Rush, Dante Martin were announced for the match. There was a Joker spot, which is a mystery opponent.
As the seven competitors battled, a group of men wearing ski masks approached the ring and attacked them all. One climbed the ladder and retrieved the poker chip, who was later revealed to be manager Stokley Hathaway. The other masked men were Ethan Page, W. Morrisey, Colten Gunn, Austin Gunn, and Lee Moriarty.
Then, "Sympathy for the Devil" by the Rolling Stones hit, and a masked competitor approached the ring. Hathaway handed the poker chip to "the Joker," and the bell was rung to signify that they were the winner. "The Joker" teased taking off the ski mask, but refused.

It was a puzzling segment on the show, especially since "the Joker" did not reveal their identity.
One of the more popular names that came up as a possible identity is Maxwell Jacob Friedman, MJF.
Back on Double or Nothing weekend in May, MJF no-showed a fan fest event, but competed in his scheduled match against Wardlow. His last appearance was on the June 2 episode of AEW Dynamite, where he cut an in-ring promo against AEW CEO Tony Khan, and threatened him to fire him. He has not been on AEW television since.
Again, no one knows exactly who "the Joker" is. It could be anyone. We will have to wait until an answer is provided.
