The Wizard faced Claudio Castagnoli this week on the special edition of Dynamite for the latter's ROH World Championship belt.
While the Swiss Superman initially looked to be in the driving seat, Jericho was eventually able to turn the tables. With a low blow, the JAS leader effectively took down the former WWE Star to take the win with a pinfall.

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
Apart from reporting on pro wrestling, Shubhajit enjoys competitive gaming and reading.
