As fans gear up for a huge weekend of wrestling, AEW has announced this Saturday’s Fight for the Fallen event will now feature a Chris Jericho promo segment.

Jericho is not listed to wrestle at the event, but he’ll be in attendance with a live mic and a bad attitude. As the former WWE Undisputed Champion himself put it, he’s pissed off and fans “won’t believe what I’m gonna say” as he looks to hype his upcoming match against Adam Page to crown the first ever AEW World Heavyweight Champion.

Taking place from Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, Florida, AEW Fight for the Fallen has been put together to benefit the victims of gun violence. Headlined by Dustin and Cody Rhodes vs. The Young Bucks, the show will also see the likes of Kenny Omega, “Hangman” Page, The Lucha Bros., MJF, and Brandi Rhodes in action.

As alluded to, this Saturday is going to be a busy one for wrestling fans. In addition to Fight for the Fallen, EVOLVE 31 will be streamed live on the WWE Network, while New Japan Pro Wresting’s G1 Climax has a stacked card featuring Kazuchika Okada vs. Zack Sabre Jr. and Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. KENTA.
