Chris Jericho and Adam Cole will battle it out in an unsanctioned match at AEW Double or Nothing. However, with only Roderick Strong by his side, it would have been difficult for Cole to deal with the entire Jericho Appreciation Society (Chris Jericho, Daniel Garcia, Matt Menard, Angelo Parker, & Jake Hager).

Therefore, to even the odds, he made a phone call to a legendary wrestling personality and asked him to join forces with him. And on the May 24 edition of AEW Dynamite, he revealed the person is none other than the ECW legend Sabu.

Sabu served the pro wrestling industry for 38 years. In his long career, he fought in WWE, GCW, TNA/IMPACT Wrestling, ECW, CZW, All Japan Pro Wrestling, AAA Lucha Libre, and Major League Wrestling. This was the first time he ever set foot inside the AEW ring.

When he made his AEW debut yesterday, it shocked Y2J and his stable members to see him there. He wasted no time in showcasing his dominance inside the squared circle. And his first victim was Matt Menard, who received a chair shot to his face courtesy of the WWE legend.

Pro wrestling fans all around the world went on Twitter to comment about his AEW debut.
