The newest faction in AEW has a name.
One week after debuting by dismantling Chris Jericho and the Inner Circle, Maxwell Jacob Friedman's new group has a name, βThe Pinnacle.β
What makes the team special is that it was given to the group by Tully Blanchard. Once a proud member of The Four Horsemen, Blanchard called the group The Pinnacle because they are at the top of the mountain and there was nowhere else to go.
MJF, gloating as he revealed his master plan, ran with the name and said he was going to take everything Chris Jericho loves from him, including his locker room.
"So when you've climbed the mountain, and there is no place, you're at the pinnacle of this sport!" - #TullyBlanchard.
