Super necessary.
It was a rough night for Chris Jericho at AEW Rampage Grand Slam as not only did he and Jake Hager lose to Scorpio Sky & Ethan Page, but Jericho felt the effects of the most devastating finisher in MMA history.
Following the tag team bout, which was won by Sky & Page, members of American Top Team hit the ring to save Dan Lambert, who was grabbed by Jericho & Hager.
Junior dos Santos & Andrei Arlovski brawled with Jericho & Hager before the numbers game became too much. The end of the segment saw Jorge Masvidal put Jericho to sleep with a flying knee.
