Chris Jericho, AEW's Learning Tree, has been on a mission to demolish opponents who fail to follow his lead and accept him as their mentor. Jericho defeated HOOK with a fireball assault before crushing Samoa Joe last week.

Chris Jericho went out for his newest "TV Time" segment on Dynamite's July 17 show from Little Rock, Arkansas. He was bragging about sending everyone who refused to sit under his Learning Tree to the hospital when an old buddy interrupted him.

Chris Jericho, Big Bill, and Bryan Keith co-hosted a special edition of their chat show feature "TV Time with The Learning Tree Chris Jericho" for the 250th episode of AEW Dynamite.

Watch here the video:

On the occasion of Dynamite's 250th episode, Jericho began by criticizing Little Rock's crime rate and promising to come on every subsequent episode. He then pondered on his aforementioned victims, claiming that people must begin to listen to him for his violent deeds to cease. Minoru Suzuki, the Japanese sensation, then marched down to the ring, holding a letter. 

Suzuki responded, "Next week," before Bryan Keith read the letter announcing that Chris Jericho will defend his FTW Championship against him at next week's AEW Dynamite: Blood and Guts. The letter also said that his cronies, Keith and Big Bill, would be barred from ringside before hitting Jericho down on the mat with a headbutt to make a message ahead of their championship match.

Chris Jericho attempted to convince Minoru Suzuki

Jericho attempted to convince Minoru Suzuki to join Big Bill and himself for a bout at Forbidden Door, but Suzuki turned him down and challenged him to a future FTW championship fight instead. He was here tonight to announce that the match will take place next week. In addition, Bill and fellow Learning Tree student Bryan Keith will be barred from ringside when Suzuki vs. Jericho takes place at Blood & Guts in Nashville.
