Chris Jericho includes Orange Cassidy, Jungle Boy and Sammy Guevara as future AEW stars
Chris Jericho said that it was difficult to name which wrestlers would be huge stars in the future for AEW. He said:
"Darby Allin, Jungle Boy, Orange Cassidy have to be in there for sure. Sammy Guevara. Who else is in there I can think of? There's so many great performers in our company that are just poised to become huge stars. Let's see, I'm using my thoughts wisely here. Because if you're only going to pick five, Thunder Rosa, I think will be a big star for us. Penelope Ford. There's another one. All of them will be huge, huge stars."
