@@mustaquimahmedtanbeer2437 I disagree, Jake Hager is a perfect Heavy to protect Jericho. He's an undefeated MMA fighter Bodyguard gimmick. He is I two of the most popular groups JAS, Inner Circle. Plus he has been apart of some of the most famous AEW matches. Blood, n guts, stadium stampede, anarchy in the arena. I have really liked Hager

[@1996gameking]

@@mustaquimahmedtanbeer2437 Jake Hager has been in a stable along side Chris Jericho since AEW started, has been in multiple main events and first time matches (First Stadium Stampde, First AND SECOND blood and Guts, First Anarcy at the Arena, First MMA style fight with Wardlow. He's been a part of alot of main event angles INCLUDING this one. That's great for Jake Hager, he's not the best talker and not the best wrestler on the roster but he's found a great spot for himself being Jericho's muscle. I think you picked on mentioned Jake cause your argument didn't work for anyone else in the ring during this segment...

Punk looks like he's in great shape and has beefed up a bit. With such a quick recovery on what's a normally lengthy injury, gotta assume he had some help. Regardless, he should keep it up because he actually looks the part.

[@naseefzarif1576]

This didn’t age well. He's hurt, he's old, he's tired and he's working with F-ing children.

[@MrJaybeezy123]

@Naseef Zarif it aged fine. This was after he had already came back, and got injured and came back again. He looked better here than at the original comeback. Then the shit with the elite happened so they cut him loose. He'll be back in a couple weeks.

Great to see Punk back & we have our All Out main event BCC & JAS brawling all the time is getting very tiresome to see. However I believe Omega is back next week to be with The Bucks & I think potentially MJF could return at All Out for The Main Event to stare at Punk to close the PPV I believe the next couple of weeks steam will be injected into AEW once again.

Omega might come back tomorrow (even though I'd wait a little bit ti creat more hype). I expect MJF to be back at any moment from All Out onwards. Pretty much seems to me that they'll feud him with Punk, this type with MJF having an anti-system/anti-Tony Khan touch to his gimmick
