Joey Janela recently heaped praise on Chris Jericho for his performance at Wednesday night's AEW Dynamite: Fight For The Fallen.
At the event, Jericho defeated Nick Gage in a violent and gory NO-DQ contest. The two veterans brutalized each other with several weapons ranging from a pizza cutter to light tubes. While Gage's performance came as no surprise, given his expertise in deathmatch wrestling, it was Chris Jericho who amazed everyone.
Among those who were genuinely impressed by Jericho's performance is fellow AEW star Joey Janela. For the unversed, Janela is himself a well-accomplished deathmatch wrestler who spent many years working in CZW, a company that predominantly promotes hardcore wrestling.

Plus, Janela's pair of unsanctioned matches against Jon Moxley from Fyter Fest 2019 and the other against Kenny Omega from AEW: Dark's 2nd episode is also highly regarded.

Taking to Twitter, Janela thanked Chris Jericho for bringing deathmatch wrestling, a niche form of entertainment, into the mainstream. He further stated that he aspires to change the business twenty years from now, just like Jericho has.
"Thank you @IAmJericho for helping bringing this weird amazing subculture of professional wrestling that I love to the mainstream & it was incredible! I aspire to love the business & change like you do 20 years from now," tweeted Joey Janela
