There's something about a Chris Jericho match that is just different from everything else in the wrestling world. The way he applies his psychology to showcase the strengths of his opponents is truly quite an exemplary feat. I especially loved the fact that we got to see a new side of Allin, the fact that he can wrestle with his hands tied as well.
Jericho even played around with Allin's skateboard establishing him as the clear heel. He would need Jake Hager's assistance to pick up a win, which made Allin look very strong indeed. A new Superstar was made on this week's show and Allin is certainly a guy to look out for.

There's such a clear gulf between the veteran and the novices in AEW, but people like Chris Jericho and Cody are bridging it by working against the young guns. I'd actually like to see another match between the two.
