13 Ups & 2 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Feb 12)

10. Bounty Set

Inner Circle
AEW

Chris Jericho's preferred problem-solving method in AEW is throwing as many meat shields at them as possible before picking the bones. With Jon Moxley outfoxing and outdoing him and The Inner Circle last week, he decided a four-person advantage wasn't enough, dipping into the free agent's market to grab Jeff Cobb and throw him at his Revolution opponent.

This news was broken through a typically strong backstage promo in which Jericho called Moxley "the lowest-level scumbag" he'd ever seen. He said he'd scoured the globe to find a bounty hunter to tear Mox apart next week, saying that if Jon survived Santana last night, he'd get Cobb on the next show.

A big announcement in itself. The crowd popped for it and Jericho was his usual entertaining self, staying true to form as a chickensh*t World Champion content to hide behind his minion at every opportunity.
