Their match at Forbidden Door last night (June 25) certainly wasn’t my favorite on the card, but it was historic. The first bout to feature Sting & Chris Jericho had some fun moments. Most importantly, per Sting himself at the post-PPV media scrum it didn’t result in any injuries.
Seeing as the finish didn’t involve either man or their AEW partner (New Japan’s Tetsuya Naito pinned his roster-mate Minoru Suzuki to give Sting’s side the victory), it’s not surprising the story will continue. They’re not wasting any time either, as Jericho interrupted Sting & Darby Allin’s time with Tony Khan at the aforementioned scrum to challenge The Icon & his young friend to a Tornado Tag match on the June 28 Dynamite. They’ll be facing Sammy Guevara... and Jericho’s Painmaker persona.
TK made it official, and even this had a botch.
