AEW’s new faction gets a name, MJF explains why he turned on Chris Jericho and The Inner Circle | Wrestling News

AEW’s new faction (MJF, FTR with Tully Blanchard, Wardlow, and Shawn Spears) addressed last week’s brutal attack on Chris Jericho’s Inner Circle on last week’s Dynamite.

Tully Blanchard said that when you climb the mountain, you are at the pinnacle and he will finish his career with the greatest group of guys in professional wrestling.

MJF said it wasn’t easy being the most charismatic man and having to take a backseat to Chris Jericho and his hairline and he pretended to like Jericho’s “ha ha” and his “comedy bullsh**” and the goal was always to kill the Inner Circle from the inside so he could build one that is stronger.

MJF announced that the name of the new faction is The Pinnacle and they will be the backbone of AEW for years to come and they will take every premiere championship.

“So when you’ve climbed the mountain, and there is no place, you’re at the pinnacle of this sport!” – #TullyBlanchard.
