AEW Dynamite angle sets up chaos for Double or Nothing
Summary
– Chris Jericho accepted Ricochet’s Stadium Stampede challenge for Double or Nothing
– Ricochet tried to use the numbers advantage against Jericho on AEW Dynamite
– The Hurt Syndicate arrived to back Jericho and shift the fight in his favor
Chris Jericho found himself surrounded on AEW Dynamite after Ricochet challenged him to a Stadium Stampede match at Double or Nothing.
Ricochet made it clear he wanted more than revenge. After mocking Jericho and claiming he had improved the Lion Saw into the Ricochet Saw, he challenged the former AEW World Champion to settle things in one of AEW’s wildest match formats.
Jericho quickly accepted the challenge and said he would find four partners for the match. He also made it clear that if nobody stood beside him, he would take on Ricochet’s side by himself.
That confidence was immediately tested. Ricochet and his allies used the numbers game to overwhelm Jericho, leaving him in serious trouble before backup arrived.
The Hurt Syndicate then hit the scene, with Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin helping turn the fight around. Their arrival changed the entire mood of the segment and gave Jericho the kind of support he needed before Double or Nothing.
The moment also raised questions about whether the Hurt Syndicate truly wanted to help Jericho or wanted another chance to go after Ricochet. Either way, their involvement gives the upcoming Stadium Stampede match a much bigger feel.
AEW is now building toward a heated multi-man showdown at Double or Nothing. With Jericho standing beside the Hurt Syndicate and Ricochet escalating the fight, Stadium Stampede could become one of the event’s most chaotic matches.
