MJF Casino Gauntlet qualifier, Chris Jericho TNT title challenge added to AEW Dynamite
In order to earn the second spot in the Casino Gauntlet match at AEW All In, former World Champion MJF will have to win a three-way at this Wednesday’s Dynamite.
After returning this past Wednesday at Grand Slam Mexico, laying out Andrade El Idolo and declaring his intentions, it was announced on Saturday’s Collision that he will face Nick Wayne and “Speedball” Mike Bailey with the winner moving onto All In. Andrade holds the number one spot.
After being told Darby Allin wants a TNT title match at All In, Kevin Knight blew that off and instead targeted Chris Jericho who has never held the TNT title before. The two were on opposite sides of a trios bout at Grand Slam Mexico that also included Allin.
The additions join a show that includes two Continental Challenge Cup tournament matches.
