Nick Gage Says He’d Rather Die Than Lose To Chris Jericho Photo Credit: AEW Nick Gage was recently asked by a fan via Cameo about his upcoming match with Jericho. The deathmatch legend said that he would rather die in the ring than lose to Chris Jericho. For the match, Jericho will be bringing back his “Painmaker” gimmick that he used in NJPW. “You’re asking me about the Painmaker, well guess what, I don’t give a f–k what his name is,” he said. “It could be Chris Jericho, it could be Painmaker, Pacemaker, or whatever. I’m going to go in that ring and I’m going to leave that ring with a weapon in my motherf–king hand with blood dripping off of it.
