Jeff Cobb to team with Chris Jericho & Big Bill at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door
Jeff Cobb is teaming with The Learning Tree this Sunday.
Chris Jericho, Big Bill, and Bryan Keith spent Collision walking around backstage giving patronizing advice to those they came into contact with. However, the trio ended up coming into contact with their Forbidden Door opponents Hook, Katsuyori Shibata, and Samoa Joe. They ended up brawling into the ringside area. That was Cobb came and attacked all of The Learning Tree’s opponents. The segment ended with Jericho raising Cobb’s hand.
Originally, Jericho was set to team with Bill and Keith. However, he revealed on Dynamite that Keith was injured. He played a video thinking the person responding would agree to team with him, but as it turned out Minoru Suzuki not only didn’t agree to team with Jericho, but challenged him to a match for the FTW Championship.
