Christian Cage takes a vicious shot at legend, former champion destroys popular stars on AEW Dynamite
Earlier on AEW Dynamite: Fyter Fest Night 1, Christian Cage and Luchasaurus made another appearance, insulting Brian Pillman Jr. and Griff Garrison (Varsity Blonds). The latter faced the big man later in the night.
For the last three weeks, Cage has been verbally eviscerating Jungle Boy and his family, especially his late father Luke Perry. Last week, Matt Hardy defended Jungle Boy from Captain Charisma's insults but fell victim to Luchasaurus' assault, who chokeslammed him through a table.
In this week's segment, Christian likened Pillman Jr's situation to Jungle Boy's, saying te former's father, the late great Brian Pillman, also passed away.
The former world champion claimed Pillman was average at best and that his final contribution to wrestling was his son.

Afterward, Luchasaurus wasted no time in inflicting pain on Garrison. He dominated most of the impromptu match, starting with a massive German suplex.
On Christian's orders, the former AEW World Tag Team Champion hit two straight chokeslams on the 24-year-old. Luchasaurus ended the bout by applying the Tar Pit on the Varsity Blonds member.

Post-match, Pillman Jr. tried to help his partner, but Luchasaurus quickly disposed of him. The latter finished the Varsity Blonds by chokeslamming Garrison through the table.
Jungle Boy is still sidelined with an injury. With Christian and Luchasaurus looking as dominant as ever, it remains to be seen when the 25-year-old will return to settle the score with his former teammates.
