Following Domino's Pizza suggesting they may pull advertisements from WarnerMedia following the Chris Jericho vs. Nick Gage bout on this week's AEW Dynamite, Gage himself has moved to apologise to the pizza juggernaut.

Taking to Twitter to respond to a post by TMZ, the King of Ultra Violence moved to thank AEW, thank his MDK crew, and then apologised to Domino's for offending them.

For those who missed it, the reason why Domino's was particularly irked by the Jericho vs. Gage battle is that a Domino's ad ran during a picture-in-picture commercial at the exact same moment that Gage was brutalising his opponent's scalp with his patented pizza cutter.

Since then, Jenny Fouracre-Petko has delivered a Domino's statement detailing how they are "assessing our advertising presence" on Dynamite and WarnerMedia moving forward.
