Chris Jericho’s next challenge in order to get to MJF arrived to AEW.
MJF wants Chris Jericho to make it past five challenges in order for Jericho to get a one-on-one match with him. The first challenge happened on night two of Fyter Fest as Jericho took on Shawn Spears and in their bout, Spears was able to use a chair and Jericho could not. Despite the stipulation and with some assistance from Sammy Guevara to even the odds on the outside of the ring, Jericho defeated Spears.
MJF then grabbed a microphone and alerted Jericho of his next challenge. On the 7/28 Dynamite, Jericho is facing GCW World Champion Nick Gage in a No-DQ match.
.@The_MJF wastes no time for Labour #2. And OMG it's @thekingnickgage!
