JAS’ Angelo Parker & Matt Menard sign AEW contract extensions
Two key members of the Jericho Appreciation Society have also been appreciated by AEW as 2point0 (Angelo Parker and Matt Menard) have signed contract extensions.
Fightful first reported the news Friday. No terms were disclosed.
After the former Ever-Rise in WWE NXT were released in the summer of 2021 less than two weeks after signing new deals, the two made their AEW debut in early August in a trios match with Daniel Garcia. The announcement of their full-time deals came shortly after.
The two became part of Chris Jericho’s new JAS faction in March after Jericho turned on Santana & Ortiz to officially end the Inner Circle.
Menard hasn’t been in action since June’s Blood & Guts cage match, but recently did some commentary on Dark. He revealed that he suffered a torn labrum, rotator cuff and partial shoulder tear in the match.
Parker has wrestled just twice since then, once in a July Dark match and on a Canadian indie show in August.
Since 2011, Josh has been a contributing editor to Wrestling Observer/F4WOnline.com and also hosts the Punch-Out podcast. He has also written for Fight Magazine, Bloody Elbow, Bleacher Report, and other websites. He's a 2000 graduate of the University of Maine, worked in pro sports, and once was an indie ring announcer.
