It helps with the pacing when they're separated. When it's all in the title, it reads like a 5 year old telling a joke and not realizing there needs to be some natural pauses in the telling. Putting the punchline in the body ensures the reader puts the pause in the correct spot.
There is a way to know where the punchline starts. It's after the question. The trick is to read the first sentence before the second sentence. That way you don't get spoiled before you read the setup.

Once in a decade joke
I don't get it
2020 one/won
So bad! Lol
I think COVID was the real winner:-P.

Yup
The joke feels more special when I'm waiting to expand the post and guessing what the punch line will be
I usually get it wrong, though that makes it funnier and more surprising
Could you worry about your own posts?
Wait, what was the punchline?
Skeleton divine death blast.
Back to your bridge
Could you worry about YOUR FACE!
