The first All Elite Wrestling World Champion has been crowned.
Chris Jericho added another accolade to his Hall Of Fame career when he defeated Adam Page to become the first-ever All Elite Wrestling Champion. In what was a bloody bout, Chris finally was able to put the younger Superstar away with the Judas Effect elbow.
The match made history in another way as Aubrey Edwards became the first-ever female official to referee a World Heavyweight Championship match on pay-per-view.
This marks Chris Jericho's 7th World Championship Victory as he held the WWE Undisputed Championship once, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship three times, and a version of the WCW Championship twice in WWE before winning the All Elite Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship tonight.
