Chris Jericho’s Inner Circle faction has been around since the start of AEW Dynamite, and Le Champion plans on keeping the stable around for the long haul.
During his most recent interview with Inside The Ropes, Chris Jericho opened up about the Inner Circle faction in AEW. He believes the stable has longevity and could translate from being a heel act to that of a babyface force.
He likened the group to D-Generation X as they were able to start out as heels, but eventually win the fans over no matter what they were doing.
“The best part is, we’ve never once had a cross word with each other, never hit each other with our finish, never had a keystone cop moment, and it’s been almost of a year now of this faction still being the top heel group to where there’s no reason to change it or add anybody or subtract anybody or replace anybody. I can see us being a faction for years almost like DX was. When DX became a thing, they were heels, then they became babyfaces, and they just kept going. I really see that for the Inner Circle.”
The former WWE and AEW champion would also go on to discuss the formation of the Inner Circle:
“I love the Inner Circle. I love the fact we all had different ideas of who was gonna be in it and the first choices with the exception of maybe one of the guys, was not the guys we ended up having. But after the first night, I saw a picture of us, and was like ‘This looks cool.’ You’ve got five guys with five different looks, five different characters, but it worked. It’s like when Guns N’ Roses formed and did they ever think this was gonna be something, and then you get into a room and you start jamming and you realize the chemistry here is amazing. And that’s what we have with the Inner Circle.”
We’ll have to see what the future holds for the Inner Circle. They’ve been through a lot even since forming in October last year. The members of the Inner Circle still seem to be getting along just fine and that’s not likely to change if Chris Jericho has anything to say about it.
