Kenny Omega isn't the only talent who has a lot to say tonight in Edmonton. Chris Jericho, who has been advertised as simply "Jericho", made his shocking return to AEW last Wednesday in his hometown of Winnipeg after nearly a year away from the ring.
There was a lot of speculation about his future in wrestling, including rumors of a return to WWE before he ultimately reappeared in AEW.
Jericho will address the audience tonight about his return and his future in AEW. What will the inaugural AEW World Champion have to say, and will it have any implications for Dynasty this weekend?
TBS title on the line

Since losing the AEW Women's World Tag Team Championships, Willow Nightingale has gone all in on defending the TBS Championship.
Last Thursday on AEW Collision, she successfully defended the title against a returning Hikaru Shida. Tonight in Edmonton, she'll put the title on the line again versus Queen Aminata, who'll make her return to the ring after being out of action for months with a neck injury.
Can Queen Aminata pull off the upset on her first night back, or will the winning ways of the champion continue?
