Tonight's episode of AEW Dynamite was a special 'Holiday Bash' edition ahead of Christmas. The show kicked off with Chris Jericho looking to recruit former FTW Champion Ricky Starks.Last week at AEW: Winter is Coming, The Absolute One lost his title match against MJF. The Devil cheated to win, which didn't sit well with the former FTW Champion.Ricky Starks came out to send a message to the current world champion. He called MJF a coward and said he couldn't win a fair fight. Starks also mentioned that the next time the result would be different.The Absolute One was interrupted by Chris Jericho and some Jericho Appreciation Society members. The Ocho invited Starks to join his faction, but the New Orleans-born star denied the offer and verbally assaulted The Ocho.All Elite Wrestling@AEW#Absolute @starkmanjones responds with an offer of his own: @IAmJericho vs. @starkmanjones at the Fabulous @thekiaforum in Los Angeles on January 4th, 2023!#AEWDynamite: #HolidayBash is LIVE on TBS!568118#Absolute @starkmanjones responds with an offer of his own: @IAmJericho vs. @starkmanjones at the Fabulous @thekiaforum in Los Angeles on January 4th, 2023!#AEWDynamite: #HolidayBash is LIVE on TBS! https://t.co/nWaN1abHCsThe wrestling world was unhappy to see The Ocho trying to recruit more young talent to join his faction and preferred he stay far away from the rising stars.Professor@LuchaProfessorDear, JAS stay the heck away from Ricky Starks.

That's all this is. He didn't elevate MJF, MJF had to work harder to get the Jericho stink off of him. He didn't elevate Kingston. He'll say this is to elevate Starks.

He'll have to wait a while. Until then, he'll suffer through Jericho and then fall off of a map. His only ally is MJF backstage.@MisterTightlips @Fightful Yep.
