During a memorable promo by Jericho running down MJF’s group and establishing the Inner Circle as babyfaces, it was announced that the two teams will face off on May 5. However, a standard multi-man tag match wouldn’t be apt for such a feud. Instead, the Blood & Guts match will make its debut.
"It wasn't to take him under my wing, it was to keep him under my thumb." @IAmJericho has a message for @The_MJF and #Pinnacle as the "NEW" #InnerCircle RETURNS to #AEWDynamite.

The first Blood & Guts match was originally supposed to take place on March 25, 2020, between The Inner Circle and The Elite, but the pandemic indefinitely delayed it and we got the Stadium Stampede match instead.
