Jericho Appreciation Championship Celebration on AEW Dynamite

Angelo Parker started the segment and he dissed the hometown crowd by calling them "losers." Matt Menard then asked if Luigi Primo, who was in the ring with the Jericho Appreciation Society, would share pizzas with everyone and the latter said no.
Chris Jericho then took the microphone and stated that the crowd couldn't have any pizza. He then hyped up his ROH World Championship match later in the night against former champion Bandido. Jericho took shots at Ring of Honor by saying no one knew about them and called his era "Ring of Jericho."
The Wizard then turned his attention towards Daniel Garcia. He gifted the ROH Pure Champion a purple hat and termed him a sports entertainment. Garcia didn't like it one bit and threw the hat. He then knocked Primo out and claimed that he has had enough.
Bryan Danielson came out at this point with William Regal. Garcia then said that he doesn't belong to Jericho. He offered to team up with Danielson to take on Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara. Matt Menard interrupted by saying that he wanted to punch Danielson.

A visibly irate Wheeler Yuta came down in the ring and called out Maxwell Jacob Friedman. He said that he got hit harder than last week, but the former ROH Pure Champion wasn't pleased with MJF attacking Tony Schiavone.
Yuta challenged MJF to a match, but added that the latter likes to hide behind his group. The Devil came out at this point and asked Tony Schiavone how is feeling after last week's beatdown. He then called Schiavone a coward. MJF then said that Yuta was one of the best wrestlers, but added that he makes more money than everyone in the crowd and everyone at home.
Wheeler Yuta interrupted and vowed to leave MJF in a pool of blood on Broad Street. He went on to confront MJF on the entrance ramp, but Gunn Club came out to outnumber him.
