Chris Jericho Vs. Orange Cassidy Set For AEW Fyter Fest
Tag title match also confirmed.
The Inner Circle's Chris Jericho will meet Orange Cassidy at AEW's Fyter Fest, a match made official at the end of last night's episode of Dynamite.
In the show's closer, Jericho & Sammy Guevara were defeated by Chuck Taylor & Trent, after the latter was tripped up by a clumsy cameraman. Following the contest, said cameraman revealed himself to be Cassidy, who then jumped the ring and attacked 'Le Champion'.
As Dynamite went off the air, the announcers confirmed that the feuding pair would meet at AEW's two-day event, commencing 1 July.
Last week, Jericho assault 'Freshly Squeezed' with a bag of blood oranges and a baseball bat, as the two's post Double or Nothing spat continued to escalate.
