Chris Jericho gives his verdict on Sammy Guevara and MJF main event this week
AEW star and leader of the Inner Circle, Chris Jericho, has heaped praise on the match between Sammy Guevara and MJF.
The company did a splendid job in its return to the Wednesday night slot this week. The main event of the show featured a singles bout between MJF and Sammy Guevara. Both men tore the house down and forced fans to pop up in their seats at Daily's Place.
In the end, MJF emerged victorious, thanks to Shawn Spears and Wardlow's timely interference.
Following the match, Chris Jericho took to Twitter to share his opinions on this week's main event. The Demo God stated that both MJF and Sammy Guevara put on a hellacious battle this week. He even rated it as one of the best matches he has ever seen. However, Chris Jericho did acknowledge the fraud finish, stating that the wrong guy won the match:
"Tonight’s @sammyguevara vs @The_MJF match was one of the best I’ve ever seen in @AEW & I was living vicariously through the #SpanishGod as he beat the s*** out of #MJF! Sadly the wrong man won, but both guys proved why #AEW is the BEST wrestling company in the world today," said Chris Jericho.
Chris Jericho's thoughts on AEW being the best wrestling company in the world today are easy to agree with. From both a wrestling and a storytelling point of view, Tony Khan has done a great job of keeping fans interested in their product.
