All Elite Wrestling superstar Chris Jericho, in his latest Saturday Night Special Q&A session, discussed the Mimosa Mayhem Match at AEW All Out on September 5th against Orange Cassidy, as well as how he came up with the concept.

“The big news on my end is, at All Out, it’s Chris Jericho versus Orange Cassidy in a Mimosa Mayhem Match and you might be like, what is that, is that like some kind of weird gimmick and actually, it’s going to be a lot of fun.

It’s something that we came up with, where you can only win by pinfall, submission or by basically throwing somebody into a vat of mimosa, so I can’t wait for you guys to see what we’ve come up with. I got the idea, kind of, coming from one of those old Atsushi Onita exploding barbed-wire deathmatch sort of things and you know, a lot of suspense, kind of like a battle royal, getting thrown out, holding onto the ropes, that sort of thing.

Of course, if someone is able to throw the other into the pit, the vat, the container of mimosa, then they’re the winner, so of course it makes perfect sense for the storyline of this feud with Orange Cassidy, he’s the Orange Juice and I’m a little bit of the bubbly, the champagne. We’re just trying to think of some cool ideas and that just popped into my head and I thought it would be a kind of fun match that can have a lot of twists and turns and false finishes and that sort of thing to it.”
