"Lame a** ending" - Fans air disappointment over the finish of Chris Jericho and popular star's stipulation-based match on AEW Dynamite
Fans slammed AEW on social media over what they thought was a disappointing finish to the Barbed Wire Everywhere match between Chris Jericho and Eddie Kingston.
Sammy Guevara interrupted at the end with a superkick at Kingston. He helped Jericho to hit The Mad King with a Judas Effect while his arm was draped in barbed wire.
People thought Kingston should have won the bout as they took to Twitter to unleash their frustrations about the finish.
A fan claimed the stipulation-based match was one of the worst things AEW has put on TV.
That barbed wire match on Dynamite was among the worst things they've put on TV in a while.
Another user refused to believe that Barbed Wire Everywhere Match would be the end of the Kingston-Jericho feud.
Chris Jericho beat Eddie Kingston in their barbed wire everywhere match
Wow...
That can't be how this feud ends, right?
How do you NOT have Eddie Kingston come out on top in this feud?
They must be setting up one more match. I refuse to believe THAT is the end.

Another fan expected AEW to deliver a great finish but was disappointed, especially with the booking.
I really thought that AEW was going to make sure that this barbed wire main event was going to over deliver.
Especially after the ending of the exploding Barbed wire death match and how much criticism it got.
This match had great effort by everyone involved, but the booking 😬
Meanone, one user shared his reaction by posting a different emotional picture of Eddie.
My reaction to the barbed wire match ending, Eddie should’ve won

One user also had an opinion, saying the main event was better than Kenny Omega's Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch against Jon Moxley. They added that the ending was lackluster.
I two things to say about the main event:
1. It was a better barbed wire match than Omega vs Moxley.
2. The ending sucked, but Eddie getting the last laugh at the very end made up for it a bit.

Another fan wasn't in favor of Jericho and Kingston extending their feud up to the All Out event.
This feud does not need to stretch to All Out. We've had Anarchy in the Arena, Blood & Guts and a Barbed Wire match. What more is there to do?
Then, a fan thought the finish was awful.
Like seriously that barbed wire everywhere match was great, but man that was a lame ass ending..... #AEW #AEWDynamite
Meanwhile, this user was amused about the way Ortiz hit Jericho with a sock.
Imo the highlight of the whole barbed wire everywhere match was Ortiz swinging the sock lol #AEWDynamite
Lastly, another user noticed that the ring wasn't entirely covered in barbed wire.
how can you call it a barbed wire everywhere match when there’s a whole side of the ring ropes that don’t have no barbed wire smh
Finally, a user claimed AEW stepped away from the barbed wire match concept by doing some unusual stuff.
they did a lot of stuff that took away from the idea they were doing a barbed wire match
Check out the results of this week's Dynamite Fyter Fest 2 here.
Chris Jericho and Eddie Kingston's match went beyond the limit on AEW Dynamite
Eddie Kingston dominated the barbed wire everywhere match as he made Chris Jericho bleed in the opening moments. However, chaos ensued when Tay Conti and Anna Jay attacked Ruby Soho so they could help the Jericho Appreciation Society to escape the Shark Cage.
The reinforcements have arrived and absolute mayhem erupted! #AEWDynamite #FyterFest Night 3 is LIVE on @TBSNetwork! https://t.co/6aZfqrHA0a
The Blackpool Combat Club and Ortiz ran out to rescue The Mad King, who was beaten up by the JAS. In the end, things didn't go well for Kingston as he fell victim to Jericho's Judas Effect, thanks to Guevara's interference.
However, The Mad King didn't let things end there. When Jericho attacked him after the match, Kingston gained the upper hand. He hit a backfist on The Wizard and promptly sent him crashing onto the barbed wire spider web, living up to his word about destroying the latter.
It seems like the feud between Kingston and Jericho is far from over. It will be interesting to see what's next as the animosity between the two men continues to reach new heights.
