"I am going to hurt you" - 40-year-old star sends a chilling warning to Chris Jericho ahead of AEW Dynamite Fyter Fest Night 2
During a backstage segment on this week's AEW Dynamite, Eddie Kingston vowed to make Chris Jericho pay for his sins in their upcoming match at Fyter Fest Night 2.
Earlier on the show, Jericho cut a promo recalling his assaults against Kingston's acquaintances. He also stated that the Mad King wouldn't just face a sports entertainer or The Wizard, but rather 'The Painmaker' for next week's bout.
After the segment, Kingston retaliated by cutting his own promo with an injured Ruby Soho and Ortiz wearing a cap for his bald head. The Mad King didn't care if The Wizard brought his most violent side.
Kingston then proceeded to show what Jericho did to his friends. In the end, he promised to make Jericho bleed by sending this chilling warning:
"Chris, I am going to hurt you and enjoy it," Kingston said.
