Chris Jericho, a key figure of AEW, made a critical error while contributing to the health of NFL player Damar Hamlin.
Following the Buffalo Bills star’s collapse in the middle of the field during last night’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, American football fans across the country were alarmed. People started a charity website for him and donated as much as they could to aid in Hamlin’s rehabilitation in any way they could.
Chris Jericho also appears to have given $5000, although his name was entered incorrectly. He typed “Chrus Jericho” rather than his own name because he misspelt it. The former ROH World Champion gave an additional $5000 and entered his name correctly this time to remedy the issue.
