Eddie Kingston and Chris Jericho are set to settle the score at AEW Dynamite Fyter Fest week two when they clash in a Barbed Wire Everywhere match that will also have a shark cage hanging above the ring.
The shark cage, which will contain members of the Jericho Appreciation Society, is in conjunction with Shark Week on Discovery.
For Eddie Kingston, he isn't worried about Shark Week.
"I don’t give a f–k about Shark Week. I just wanted to fight Jericho, and whatever the company needs to do to have — what is that word? — synergy, I’m all for it. I don’t care if it’s a shark cage or a dog cage. I just want to fight Jericho and throw him through barbed wire," Kingston told Scott Fishman of TV Insider.
When asked what comes to mind when he thinks of "barbed wire everywhere," Kingston replied, "A spiderweb barbed wire bed. I would like to wrap up the barbed wire around the ring ropes. If I had my way, there would be more weapons for me to hurt Chris with. Let’s put barbed wire on the ring bell. Let’s put barbed wire on the microphone. Let’s put barbed wire on a baseball bat. Whatever I can hit him with would be great. People think I’m working with Chris. I don’t like him, really. I’m here to do my job. We’re here to do business, but I’m going to get in some shots he ain’t going to like because I really don’t like the guy. I think he is a carny lowlife. Everything I do is as real as possible. For some reason, Tony Khan, the match-maker, puts me in the ring with people I don’t like, but it’s part of the deal."
Jericho and Kingston have been feuding for the better part of the year. Kingston defeated Jericho in a singles bout at AEW Revolution. The two have been on opposite teams for Anarchy in the Arena and Blood & Guts.
Fightful will have live coverage of AEW Dynamite Fyter Fest week two beginning at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
