Mar 16, 2021 at 0:27 comment added YCor @HJRW Nice; actually I believe it would be a useful additional answer to mathoverflow.net/questions/218422
Mar 16, 2021 at 0:20 comment added HJRW @YCor, see my comments on the answer below. Every infinite finitely generated subgroup of a one-relator group has infinite abelianisation. This rules out many 2-dimensional groups, including all with property T.

Mar 15, 2021 at 11:51 comment added YCor PS the cohomological dimension fact mentioned by Carl in a comment to his answer seems to discard many hyperbolic groups.
Mar 15, 2021 at 11:35 comment added YCor I don't know if any hyperbolic group is known not to embed into any 1-relator group (I don't know either for $C'(1/6)$ f.p. groups). At the same time, I don't know if a 1-relator group may contain an infinite Property T subgroup.
