On tonight's episode of AEW Dynamite: Winter is Coming, the wrestling world was shocked as former ROH World Champion Chris Jericho lost against debuting wrestler Action Andretti. Fans mocked the All Elite President Tony Khan for booking the match.
The Ocho wanted to regain his confidence after losing the ROH World Title to Claudio Castagnoli this past Saturday at Ring of Honor: Final Battle. Jericho thus had a match against Action Andretti.
It was a fairly long match, and when the WWE veteran looked to gain the victory, the 27-year-old surprised everyone as he hit a Standing Moonsault to claim the win.
