The ongoing equation between the veteran AEW star Chris Jericho and the company’s top prospect, the cold-hearted handsome devil, HOOK reached its boiling point after Jericho dragged his father, Taz into the mix.
The partnership between Jericho and the young upstart known as Hook has been on full display in recent weeks. The two have formed an unexpected alliance, teaming up for matches and even facing off against each other in a blockbuster showdown.
On tonight’s edition of AEW Dynamite, Jericho and HOOK met inside the ring for a confrontation officiated by Taz. The Ucho offered to be his teacher going forward, after witnessing some mistakes on his end, and invited him to be a part of the learning tree i.e. Chris Jericho’s mentorship reminding him of the stars who sat under it and went on to become top stars in AEW.
But HOOK politely declined the offer leading Jericho to sound off on his father Taz for not embedding the right instincts needed to identify opportunities and take them, berating him as a bad example for HOOK.
Moreover, the creator of the Chris Jericho vortex crossed the line by shoving Taz down to the mat, making HOOK evidently furious and putting him in the corner with a warning to never cross the line before exiting the ring.
