Chris Jericho and Tommaso Ciampa will go one-on-one once more, but this time, it’s “The Painmaker” vs. “The Psycho Killer,” and the pair will face off at AEW Redemption. Jericho made the challenge as his “Painmaker” persona in a pre-recorded segment, and Ciampa accepted in certainly one of his own, during “AEW Dynamite.”
Jericho said that last week, at “Beach Break,” Ciampa left him battered and bloodied, and he liked it. He said they were going to do it again, and when he turned around to face the camera, he revealed he was wearing his “Painmaker” makeup and placed on the hat to finish the look as he made the challenge. He told Ciampa that “hell was coming” for him.
Ciampa didn’t seem rattled in any respect by seeing Jericho’s gimmick, and said that at Redemption, they were going to seek out out if the “Painmaker” is healthier than “The Psycho Killer.” He said before they get to Redemption, he has yet one more night in his hometown of Boston, where “Dynamite” was live from on Wednesday, and he challenged anyone who desired to make a reputation for themselves to step as much as him on “AEW Collision.” He told Jericho to make sure to watch.
