Chris Jericho was caught on video finishing up a phone conversation with “fellow GOAT” Patriots QB Tom Brady as he took a moment to address fans about the recently announced AEW World Tag Team Title match that he and Sammy Guevara will be a part of this Wednesday. SCU will be defending their newly won straps for a second time within the span of a week as they take on the AEW World Champion and The Spanish God.

“You think about it, my time in AEW has been outstanding, untarnished, undefeated in All Elite Wrestling after beating Cody, after beating Hangman Page, after beating Dustin Rhodes, after beating Kenny Omega, after beating Nick Jackson, I beat them all! But you know what? It’s just inspired me to be a better person and a better performer and it also showed me that The Inner Circle, the Chris Jericho deserves all the gold. The World Championship just isn’t enough and that’s why Sammy Guevara and Chris Jericho, The Inner Circle, are challenging SCU for the World Tag Team Titles this Wednesday in Nashville on AEW Dyno-mite! That’s right! Jimmy Walker couldn’t say it better and we’re gonna beat SCU and we’re gonna be, I’m gonna be Le Double Champion.”
Guevara doubled down on Jericho’s remarks:
