What's the story?
We are just weeks away from All Elite Wrestling's first ever show, Double or Nothing, and in the lead up to the historic event, AEW has now announced the signing of yet another industry veteran in the form of Jerry Lynn.
In case you didn't know...
Former WWF superstar Jerry Lynn is a retired Professional Wrestler best known for his work with ECW and Ring of Honor. Lynn, over the course of his career, has worked with the likes of WCW, TNA, WWF, and ROH and has won several notable championships in the process.

The heart of the matter
In the build-up to AEW's Double or Nothing show, Cody Rhodes, The Young Bucks, Tony Khan, and the rest of the All Elite Wrestling team have indeed lined up one of the most talented rosters of all time.
Featuring superstars such as Kenny Omega, Chris Jericho, Pac, Jimmy Havoc, and Allie, AEW has now announced the signing of Pro Wrestling veteran Jerry Lynn, who will be working as a coach for the promotion. Lynn now joins the likes of B.J. Whitmer and Billy Gunn in the list of backstage personnel for AEW.
