3. Le Dinner Debonair

Le Dinner Debonair was an audacious idea that only performers as talented as Chris Jericho and Maxwell Jacob Friedman could pull off, which made their feud even more special. The theatrical segment was yet another triumph of AEW's pandemic product as wrestling needed more unique content to make up for the lack of fans in the arenas.

The Fozzy singer and his contemporary sat down for a steak dinner before breaking into a song and dance routine that would be worthy of Broadway, and it was as spectacular as it was surprising. The segment received a mixed reaction from fans, but it was hugely entertaining and did not suspend disbelief as much have some may have thought.

Throughout the performance, Jericho was visibly struggling to keep up with MJF, which was the whole premise of the feud as the young star was clearly trying to outsmart and outmaneuver his experienced rival. Ultimately, the segment can just be celebrated in its own right as a memorable piece of television that deserved the conversation and praise it generated.
