#5. Chris Jericho turns heel and expels Proud & Powerful from the Inner Circle
Tomorrow #AEWDynamite
Inner Circle Team Meeting
@IAmJericho’ @sammyguevara’ @RealJakeHager’ @Santana_Proud & @Ortiz_Powerful https://t.co/UJQ3TAVVOm
Last week, Chris Jericho demanded that The Inner Circle meet this Wednesday night to discuss the faction's future. The former AEW Champion seemingly hopes to bury the hatchet between himself and Santana & Ortiz.
Tensions have continued to rise between the stablemates ever since Proud & Powerful held Jericho responsible for their downfall in the tag team division. The duo even refused to tag The Demo God in during their recent trios match victory over Daniel Garcia and 2Point0.
The Inner Circle is on the brink of a massive breakup, and Chris Jericho is well aware of that. With that in mind, Jericho could boot Santana and Ortiz from the group and turn heel in the process.
Jericho's character has grown stale recently, so a significant change in persona could do wonders for his career moving forward. Santana & Ortiz, meanwhile, will have the opportunity to focus on winning tag team gold down the road.
