5 Wrestlers Who Could Join The Teased New AEW SUPER Stable

5. Chris Jericho

Starting with the most obvious pick, AEW has hardly teased an alignment between Chris Jericho and Don Callis for it to not happen and pivot towards a Callis Family Vs. Jericho Appreciation Society programme.

The Callis Family are clearly heading into a stable war with the Elite, and Takeshita and Jericho will make up two-fifths of the former unit - or two-fourths, depending on either A) the availability and condition of Kota Ibushi or B) whether or not Hangman Page will stay on as a member of the Golden Elite supergroup.

Now, there might be a plot hole to clamber out of here.

As mentioned, Callis abandoned Kenny Omega on May 10, following a slow-burn tease, because Omega's body is breaking down and Konosuke Takeshita is a younger and, in storylines, superior athlete. You'd expect, then, Callis to recruit a band of raw, athletic studs in order to dine out on several meal tickets - so how does the 52-year-old Jericho fit into that?

Quite easily, with a spot of verbal finessing.

Callis and Jericho have a long interwoven history with one another, so there's that, but Callis can also point to Jericho's staggering pristine injury record. He could also say that Jericho constantly gets better and better.

Fans will debate that, but Jericho worked one of the best matches of his career, against Tomohiro Ishii, as recently as November 2022. His Falls Count Anywhere war in May of this year with Roderick Strong was incredible too.
