Chris Jericho could feud with 2pointO upon his return

While there's little clarity over the AEW star's condition at the moment, there's a readymade feud waiting for him upon his return to the company. Before heading to the UK, Chris Jericho kickstarted a rivalry with the trio of 2pointO (Matt Lee and Jeff Parker) and Daniel Garcia.

Since Eddie Kingston is also embroiled in a heated feud with them, it could result in him and Chris Jericho joining forces. A few days back, 2pointO warned Le Champion not to interfere in their business and suggested things might only escalate when he returns.
