The Learning Tree of AEW, Chris Jericho, has been on a warpath to decimate opponents who refused to sit under his guidance and acknowledge him as their mentor. Jericho first took out HOOK with a fireball attack and followed it up with destroying Samoa Joe last week.
Chris Jericho hosted a special edition of his talk show segment “TV Time with The Learning Tree Chris Jericho” for the 250th episode of AEW Dynamite alongside Big Bill and Bryan Keith.
Jericho began by berating Little Rock’s crime rate while vowing to appear on every Dynamite moving forward on the occasion of its 250th episode. He then reflected on his aforementioned victims and claimed that people need to start listening to him for his vicious actions to stop. At that point, Japanese sensation Minoru Suzuki marched down to the ring with a letter in his hand.
Suzuki said, “Next week,” before Bryan Keith read the letter stating that Chris Jericho would defend his FTW Championship against him at next week’s AEW Dynamite: Blood and Guts. The letter also added that his associates, Keith and Big Bill, would be banned from ringside before knocking Jericho down on the mat with a head butt to make a statement ahead of their title bout.
What are your thoughts on Minoru Suzuki vs Chris Jericho for the FTW Championship next week on AEW Dynamite? Will it be a fair fight now that Big Bill and Bryan Keith are barred from ringside? Sound off in the comments!
