Shane Taylor Promotions (Taylor, Lee Moriarty & Anthony Ogogo) defeated Chris Jericho, Hook & Katsuyori Shibata in a trios match on Dynamite last week. Shibata was pinned after Taylor delivered a knockout punch while Shibata had Moriarty locked in a sleeper.
“I saw what you did to Shibata. I’ve been losing a lot of friends lately, and I don’t appreciate you knocking out the only ones I have left,” Cassidy told Taylor. “So why don’t you try to knock me out later tonight?”
Taylor responded by accepting the challenge.
Earlier this month, Best Friends imploded with Trent Beretta attacking Cassidy. Chuck Taylor has yet to pick a side in the Best Friends civil war.
