Ricky Starks has outsmarted Chris Jericho once again.
The Absolute One announced on tonight’s AEW Dynamite from Phoenix that he has an open contract for the March 5th Revolution pay-per-view, and that whoever wished to face him at the event should sign the contract in front of him. This brought out Jericho, who would eventually get coaxed into signing the contract by Starks. Not only that, Jericho, on his own accord, added that the Jericho Appreciation Society would not be able to interfere in the matchup.
Watch how it played out below.
