My poor face. @IAmJericho’s embarrassed me before on #AEWDynamite, but this time he took away a chance to be on PPV by hitting me with a Judas Effect…in a spiky leather suit!
That heavy metal hedgehog is done, dude.

A WBD spokesperson told Wrestlenomics: “[W]e attribute most of that success to AEW Dynamite.”
