Chris Jericho walked away with a win over Bryan Danielson and proclaimed himself as the best wrestler in the world.
AEW All Out saw “Lionheart” Chris Jericho face off with Bryan Danielson, and Jericho used some underhanded tactics to leave with the win. The final moments of the match saw Danielson lock in Cattle Mutilation before connecting with a rolling elbow. The match then came to a head as Jericho kicked Danielson below the belt before hitting the Judas Effect for the win.
Jericho then celebrated with the Jericho Appreciation Society minus Daniel Garcia, who was noticeably absent.
Later in the night, Tony Schiavone asked Garcia where he was during the match. Jericho walks in and asks the same thing, then points out that Garcia will be challenging Wheeler Yuta for the ROH Pure Championship. He said that he knows Garcia will win, but he will have to do it without JAS. Garcia asks why Jericho wouldn’t be there for him, and Jericho repeats that Garcia will win, but he will do it without him.
