Him or Swerve IMO should take the belt next. Thoughts?

Do I want him to? Yup.
But I think Cole has always been the plan and Iβm ok with that.

No.
Ric Flair needs to be the one to beat MJF.
Or Sting.
Either or, it's time to let these new rookies get a push in AEW!

I think MJF losing the title soon would be OK but I actually am very interested in the "one versus all" story they've been doing lately. Lots of guys want a shot at MJF's title all at once, on top of the Devil storyline going on.
I think we have a few stories to close out before they switch the title off of MJF.
But Jay White would be a great talent to hold the title. But I don't think AEW is in a good place right now to have a heel world champion. They are very soft on compelling, top of the card babyfaces. Either by poor storytelling or injuries, I am not sure who Jay White would go on to defend the title against right now outside of giving MJF a rematch.
I am still hoping that Darby is the guy to beat MJF because there is a lot of story there. Bonus points if Darby wins it before Revolution and we can get Darby Vs Sting for the AEW title in Sting's retirement.

Maybe we see it along with Christian transitioning his rivalry to Adam Copeland. |

No.
If MJF is leaving when his contact expires then I would have Adam Cole take the title from him.
If MJF is staying then no reason not to continue his reign. He's usually the most entertaining person on the show and his matches are usually good, at worst.

Nah.
Is White the better wrestler? Yes. Is White better on the mic? No. Is BCG better than all the nonsense MJF does? Yes.
But MJF is a perfect champion right now.

I'd like to see Samoa Joe take it. I personally can't stand Adam Cole so I'd be dissatisfied to see him end up with it.

Jay White isn't over enough yet. Adam Cole is too injury prone. Joe's been treated like an afterthought his entire run. Darby's a horrible person and a dumbass. Edge and Sting don't need it.
Out of everyone right now, Swerve is the best option, but I don't want them to move too fast with him. Selfishly Bryan deserves a run for the titlebooks, but his timetable is too limited, especially with all the injuries.
Have MJF turn heel right when his contract "runs up" saying it was a ruse to distract everyone so he could leave with the title, then throw whoever is the hottest babyface at the time towards him and call it a day.

No. They need someone that can bring in viewers.

As long as he makes the jump in the new year, I couldn't care less if QT Marshall beats him for the title... All I care about is him leaving. That being said, if I was forced to pick someone to beat him, Cole makes the most sense.

I would love to see Switchblade with the title but not now. Adam "The Real Devil" Cole with a returning KOR and Roddy/Kingdom taking it from Max is what I want to see. If not Cole,guys like Switchblade, Darby and Swerve is at the very top of my list of future champs
