Another Jericho Appreciation Society member has been re-signed.
On August 19, Fightful Select reported that 2point0 (Matt Menard & Angelo Parker) had signed contract extensions with AEW.
Speaking to Alex McCarthy of Inside The Ropes, Chris Jericho was asked about the duo signing an extension and he revealed that Jake Hager also signed an extension with the company.
"Jake Hager too, they all got contract extensions," he said.
Hager and 2point0 are all members of the Jericho Appreciation Society. Hager originally signed with AEW in October 2019 when he debuted on the first-ever episode of AEW Dynamite.
Speaking about 2point0, Jericho said, "I knew those guys were really good the moment I started working with them. I do feel proud that they got contract extensions, raises, and everything in between. I don't want to say anybody deserves...they earned it. They earned it by showing what they can do. The JAS has so many members, that's the way Tony (Khan) wants it, adding Sammy (Guevara), Tay (Conti), Anna (Jay), I can't do everything for everybody, so I love that they have their own story going on with Angelo and HOOK. Daddy Magic has a shoulder issue so he's been doing commentary and he's been killing it. I gave them an opening and they just kicked the door open, and they understand, the more they can do, the more valuable they are to the company and Tony Khan agreed. It is great to see because they didn't deserve it, they earned it."
Parker challenged HOOK for the FTW Championship at AEW All Out, but was unsuccessful in trying to capture the title. After the match, 2point0 was thrown around by Action Bronson.
Jericho is set to face Bryan Danielson in the Tournament of Champions on the September 14 episode of AEW Dynamite.
