Chris Jericho vs. Kyle Fletcher added to AEW Dynamite

For the first time ever, Chris Jericho will face Kyle Fletcher one-on-one as part of this Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite. 

The challenge was laid out by Fletcher during Friday’s AEW Rampage in a post-match promo segment with Don Callis, Konosuke Takeshita and Powerhouse Hobbs.

Fletcher pointed out that both Takeshita and Hobbs already had opportunities to take on Jericho and if anyone deserved the next shot, it was him.

Callis also intimated during the promo that Takeshita would be facing Jericho on the February 7th Dynamite from Phoenix, but that was not formally announced.

Jericho and Fletcher, the current Ring of Honor TV Champion, were on opposite ends of tag team matches three times in 2023 with Jericho’s side coming out on top in all three.

In another development during Rampage, Top Flight will take on Private Party in a rematch “next week” which could mean on either Dynamite or Rampage.

Here’s the current lineup for New Orleans, Louisiana:

  • Dealer’s Choice: Swerve Strickland vs. an opponent of Hangman Page’s choosing
  • Dealer’s Choice: Hangman Page vs. an opponent of Swerve Strickland’s choosing
  • Deonna Purrazzo vs. Taya Valkyrie (w/ Toni Storm on commentary)
  • Chris Jericho vs. Kyle Fletcher
