Team AEW (Swerve Strickland, Mark Briscoe, Darby Allin, and The Acclaimed) defeated Team Elite (The Young Bucks, Kazuchika Okada, Jack Perry, and Hangman Page) in a Blood & Guts match on Wednesday’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
During the match, Jack Perry was handcuffed to the cage and took an unprotected chair shot from Mark Briscoe. A gimmick chair was reportedly used for the unprotected shot.
According to a report by Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, numerous sources within AEW verified that the chair involved in the spot was designed particularly for the stunt.
Moreover, Nicholas Jackson issued a statement, assuring that Perry emerged unharmed from the spot. He said,
“All I know is Jack is fine, and that’s all that matters. We know the risk we’re taking in the ring and it wouldn’t have happened if he wasn’t prepared for it.”
