In other AEW news, the most recent episode of The Road to Double or Nothing has been released, and it features new talents being introduced to the promotion, including Brandon Cutler, who will be competing in the Over The Budget Battle Royal at Double or Nothing.
[lawrence-related id=869206]The new episode of the show also continues the brewing feud between Chris Jericho and Cody Rhodes. Jericho already has a match set for Double Or Nothing against Kenny Omega, and Rhodes is waiting to recover from recent knee surgery before his opponent is announced for the PPV.
In recent weeks, Jericho has been taking credit for the quick sellout of the Double Or Nothing PPV, and in the new Road episode, Cody Rhodes appears none-too-thrilled with Jericho’s claims, a sentiment Cody has also expressed via social media. The banter between Cody and Y2J could be setting up a potential feud down the line between the two in AEW.

On another Tye Dillinger note, we previously noted that while Dillinger will be under a 90-day no-compete clause with WWE, he will be free from the no-compete in time to compete at Double Or Nothing should he end up signing with AEW. It’s worth noting that Dillinger is friends with Cody Rhodes, making AEW a distinct possibility for “The Perfect 10”.
