MJF's new AEW stable is called The Pinnacle.

This was revealed on last night's episode of Dynamite, when The Salt of the Earth led his new crew to the ring for an in-ring promo after last week's turn on The Inner Circle.

A segment opened by Tully Blanchard saw MJF put each of his stablemates over, from Tully and FTR to Shawn Spears and Wardlow, including himself. Revealing that everything he'd done while part of The Inner Circle was part of a plot to bring the group down and replace it with his own power stable, MJF promised to take everything from Chris Jericho and co. - including their locker-room.

Later, The Pinnacle made good on that promise, replacing the locker-room's Inner Circle sign with one of their own, then stepping inside.

The Pinnacle formed at the end of last week's Dynamite. Jericho and Sammy Guevara thought they had the jump on MJF, revealing they'd uncovered his grand plot, but MJF had an ace up his sleeve. Spears, FTR, Wardlow, and Blanchard appeared after the lights went down, and an Inner Circle-style beatdown ended with Jericho being powerbombed off the stage.

The Inner Circle weren't on last night's show to respond.
