Since MJF challenged The Inner Circle to a Stadium Stampede match, fans have been eagerly waiting to see whether Chris Jericho’s group would accept the stipulation.
This week on AEW Dynamite, fans finally got their answer.
First, in a taped segment, MJF and the Pinnacle sat down for a classy dinner, and the group’s leader warned that the Stadium Stampede match would be the end of the Inner Circle.

Later in the show, Jericho and his stablemates came to the ring. The members of the group expressed their interest in the match, and Sammy Guevara took the chance to insult the Pinnacle. Hager said he felt like the group doesn’t have a choice in the matter because it needs to protect its reputation. Finally, Jericho wondered whether the risk of being forced to break the stable up was worth it. But he explained that he’ll never be the same because of MJF, so the potential consequence is indeed worth it.
