Okay so this thread is about why I think evil betrayed lij for bc

NOTE: this is all in kayfabe. Like we heard rumors of evil getting a big push and like I think this virus might have had a point for all this to happen but in just writing about storyline wise.
So the interesting about this whole mess is, he keeps saying that lij is rotten. But he never says why? And while I do have multiple theories I think the main one for me is that I think he doesn't feel a part of the Familia anymore.
Let's take a look at Sanada. The interesting part is lately he's been talking about spending time with naito or shingo, but I don't think he's ever talked about evil in that way? Like he claimed that he wants to spend time out of work with them but again never evil
Now I don't know if maybe he thinks that he doesn't have to say anything, but a quick look on twitter and ig says it. The last pic he had with evil was in November of last year. Like he's been taking pics with shingo and bushi far more times.
So let's also talk about hiromu. We all know him and hiromu have a close bond, like brothers. But something interesting popped up during his YouTube channel.
So when they did that little video together, at first I thought it was a cute little joke video but watching it again since the stuff happens, it's almost in a new light.
So summary evil never says anything or answer any question and hiromu vmbwing funny as always but something has always struck me as odd with it cause I dunno the vibe felt different. Like evil didn't even want to do the video but did cause hiromu.
And it's esp jarring with the photoshoot interview video. He never says a word. Like while bushi was bullying Sanada for copying shingo, evils silence was very pronounced and like I had forgetren he was there until I saw his face.
It just felt very odd to me.

Which got me thinking, people were saying that shingo was gonna replaced hiromu. But what if evil thought he was the one being replaced.
I mean him and shingo are very similar, in built, strength, and even in fueds bar sho. It would make sense to not feel at ease with someone so similar all of a sudden in the group.
So what if evil just felt like he wasn't wanted anymore. And that he couldn't surpassed his parejas. Maybe that why winning the cup was so important to him, and to win by any means necessary.
Which comes in with bullet club. Obviously they are down like half the stable because of this virus. And evil knows Suzuki gun would laugh him out of the bar. They would need each other.
Which brings me to this new attitude. This new look, including his hair being down. I think for him it meant that he had more confidence. But he still hides his face, it's just being replaced by the mask and cloak. There's also an exaggerated swagger, that reads to me
Hiding his insecurities or trying to fit the bc mold.

2 interesting things about the conference. The way he walked off whe asked about winning the belts. One can read it as being a shitty heel. Or maybe he's still insecure cause he didn't beat naito fair
It wasn't his skill that beat him, it was his resources.

The other one was I dunno if it was a coincidence that he wore the belt that he bought with Sanada. With lij tho everything mean something right?
So in conclusion I think evil might have felt like he wasnt part of lij, and that he had to find a way to prove he was better than naito, even if it meant making a deal with the devil.
I just might be over thinking things, or being a delusional fan girl but I just needed to get this off my chest.
