Last night on AEW Dynamite, Chris Jericho and Maxwell Jacob Friedman, MJF, delivered a full-on musical number during what was supposed to be a steak dinner entitled “Le Dinner Debonair.”
Relive the magic that was the special @IAmJericho & @The_MJF's Le Dinner Debonair.

Chris Jericho has since called the segment “the greatest moment in wrestling history” on social media and after last night’s Dynamite, Jericho addressed the live audience and pulled back the curtain on some of the production notes for the segment, noting that that was only ready to air about 20 minutes before it did and they were filming until 2 in the morning the previous night to make sure it was ready to go.
“You guys like Le Dinner Debonair tonight? If you only knew [laughs] what we went through to get that up on air. Basically, we had that ready to go about twenty-two minutes before it aired and we filmed last night until about 2:00 a.m., so you never know what’s going to happen on live TV. But you buckle up, you get the job done, you put on a great show and make sure you guys always have fun, right?”
Here is pt. 2 of Chris Jericho speaking to the crowd after the show and talking about #LeDinnerDebonair #AEWDynamite 10.21.20. He definitely looked over at me a few times. ? pic.twitter.com/26KBaw6FsW
