At this point, Chris Jericho is basically the opposite of Christian Cage. Cage is serious, Jericho is goofy. Cage's outfits are elegant, Jericho's are tacky. Cage is still in good shape, Jericho looks like he drinks (more than) a little bit of the bubbly to every meal. Cage has heel heat, Jericho has "GO AWAY" heat.
Jericho is stupid. Cage is smart. Jericho was wrong. Cage was right. Cage is the best. Jericho, the wrost. Cage is very good-looking. Jericho is not very attractive....
Came here to say the same. I remember quite a bunch of interviews with him rambling about how the old guys hogged the spotlight and titles...and here we are with an old, out of shape Chris Jericho being the RoH champ.
To be honest, I still like him. His "Hi guys!" catchphrase is annoying, but still funny. Even better is what he's done with Bryan Keith. While it would be nice to have the "Bounty Hunter" back, seeing (and hearing) the "Bad Apple" follow Jericho around and shout follow-ups to everything his boss says is also funny, though not as much as when Harley Cameron had a similar dynamic with Saraya recently. What I'd like more than anything else, though, is to see Jericho turn face, and maybe bring back the "Painmaker" gimmick.
Yes, it's sad. He should be at the same point in his career now that Sting was in 2011: so untouchable as a babyface that he could do absolutely any gimmick and the fans would still cheer him. I'm glad he's not hogging the title belt or anything like that, but he should be doing more than just putting over the younger talent.
@@SeasideDetective2 he should undertaker type schedule.... 2-3 matches in a year only .... it would keep him special attraction .... so even if he looses against someone it'll feel like big thing he should become official GM of dynamite like nick aldis and fighting only 2-3 matches in a year when story is there
I think Ring of Honor should be phased out. Why is it around anymore? I realize it has its diehard fans, but I think its time is done. What is it now but just a developmental territory for AEW? There are only a handful of ROH wrestlers who are not also AEW wrestlers, plus Griff Garrison and Cole Karter and Maria Kanellis, who are supposed to be on TV but have just disappeared. (Where are they?) This might just get a lynch mob sent after me, but I suggest the name Ring of Honor just be excised and its championship converted into a hardcore title or something.
Lukewarm take but I think it should be used as a developmental brand. Get the reps in at a low stakes environment to see if you can hang in the main roster. Worked well for WWE in the past why not AEW.
And i also think this "Hi guys!" gimmick is just a 'F you' to the fans cus they always are bad mouthing him so Jericho just like 'F it' and started doing this cheesy act and went back to wearing trunks cus he knows the audience always calling him fat and making fun of him lol
@@OneAtFaultMedia It *does* really seem a lot like he's going the "cut off your nose to spite your face"-approach. He's taken on this attitude of "Well you're still talking about me, right? Guess I'm just living rent-free in your heads lolololol" and leaned into it to an obnoxious degree.
I remember reading something Jericho wrote years ago about hating the old stars, long past their primes who refuse to allow the younger stars to shine. Congrats Jericho. You've become one.
His confirmation for Dynamite this week was enough for me to pick NXT. Tony is clearly obsessed with him and doesn't listen to the fans regarding Jericho so I'm just not going to watch live and watch clips on UA-cam of what I actually want to see from Dynamite and Collision
The learning tree is when Jericho became insufferable to me. I don't even ironically enjoy it. How does acknowledging the fact that people are sick of seeing you equal heel heat? And why does he talk like a kid now?
Unlike Terry Funk and other legends, Chris Jericho shouldn't be a top guy way out of his prime. Chris needs to take a page out of Terry's book and put young guys over.
I used to Jericho was a chameleon in wresting adapting with the times for a new generation. I use to think he was smart and i was proud to be Canadian because of him. Now especially now watching him on AEW after 5 years makes me cringe in the ring and his antics away from the ring.. Hall of Farner yes but a shell of his former self.
He was at his best in companies where he still had something to prove and constantly work to earn/keep his spot (WCW, ECW, early WWF, WWE as WHC which was considered a second fiddle title, working with Owens to help get him and the Universal title over). Even in early AEW, when he was their first world champ, he had to help prove AEW was worth watching. And he did that? Now, he has all the security and none of the purpose. If we want to see old Chris Jericho again, Tony either needs to fire him (won't happen), write a new contract (won't happen) or grow a backbone and make Jericho change shit up (won't happen).
0:59 I get the whole point was Jericho going “haha I’m the baby boomer who’s taking up time and titles from younger guys!” As a response to fans who don’t like him… but the gimmick wasn’t good. Did I laugh the first time I saw it? Sure. Did I laugh after or want more? No, no I did not.
Counting both reigns with the ROH championship can anyone let me know the last ROH episode he was on? Pretape promos don’t count. Also I love how Jericho can be on AEW all day…but Athena is under lock and key?
He is a khan so he definitely will be dismissive towards the female gender its all about male centricism with these people. Just look at wwe now full on female on TV who also draw money.
@dranzerjetli5126 to be fair ... WWE does a lot of trial and error ... so the female talent is tip top ... they also started offering 1 day TV deals ... a la Jordyn Grace at royal rumble
@@savlosavage they literally had their TV champ, one half of their tag champs, and their two recent world champs on AEW tv in a matter of a few week time span. Also their world champ is a shell of his former self.
@AdrianM865 lol that's facts. But come on ... we have to give them a chance ... AEW is in that TNA level "make or break" phase... they are going to have to make some real decisions regarding the factions ( there are too many), Swerve botching spots as a champ and obviously not wanting to take bumps. Swerve should also join the Hurt syndicate ... if he loses to Lashly at full gear ⚙️.... they could take on Moxley ( they could even thin out the storyline by having MVP or Shelton and Lashly give Syndicate cards to Darby and Orange Cassidy which could lead up to a good heel turn or set off a faction war with one main story. Then old ass Jericho could use his talk show to give us the rundown of it all ... they are wasting his Mic skills by not having him aware of it all since he runs " The Learning Tree"
If they wanted an ex-WWE talent with some star power, and who could really generate some interest in a feud for the ROH Title, I'd have gone with Christian Cage. He has the AEW Title shot in his back pocket. He could have set out to prove that he's more than capable of winning a world championship by taking the ROH Title in the meantime. He could also very easily be a believable slimy weasel of a heel who doesn't adhere to the 'Code of Honor', will only defend it once as is necessary every 30 days, and will do anything and everything possible to keep the title around his waist. And of course, he could have really made things personal with Mark Briscoe, because of what happened to Jay. Since apparently Mark was comfortable enough for Jericho to cut promos about how Jay was a better champion and could have got the job done. The promos from Mark would also be worth it. As if Christian's "family" were to put him on the shelf in storyline for a couple of months, there's potential there to have him back on the chicken farm in Sandy Fork doubting himself and having Papa Briscoe remind him of just who he is and get him ready for the rematch.
I personally dont have a Problem with Jericho being on TV and being Champion. Just the Gimmick is quite mid, he should get back to how he appeared in 2019, with a Strong Story and a good Stable.
Not the point of this vid but i just thought man aew really sold the Undisputed era, some of it was their fault some wasnt but when they all sent to aew i expected some cool crazy stuff and none of it ever happend. I at least wanted a elite vs Undisputed era match. That sucks
That’s part of the issue though. Jericho is the guy booking himself. TK isn’t going to say anything to home either, so this is just going to continue until he wants to stop
What made Jericho such a major player in WWE was that he when to disappear. His return would always be a moment of the year. Thats what needs to happen now.
Let say me this; getting rid of the FTW title was a good move by AEW. Now, what's funny about the rumors about this being about the a possible tv deal is that this is what people said during his first reign with Roh title. Also, if look into who is behind the rumors this time, its basically Dave Meltzer and random IWC accounts and has no basis outside of that.
TK put the ROH Title on Jericho to shop for a TV deal. He's easily the most recognizable name on the roster for most TV people! He's done TV in other forms! It makes sense for a business move but it sucks for fans!
Due to Benoit's condition (especially his brain), one could have guessed this beforehand if it had been properly examined and STILL it could have turned out much worse. It “only” cost 3 lives. Don't get me wrong, I think it's as terrible as anyone else, but if it hadn't happened, it wouldn't have been investigated afterwards and therefore chair hits to the head wouldn't have been banned (which ultimately led to the safety of many people). Furthermore, things could have been even worse, e.g. B. a school shooting or something like that & if "only" people die, that's still better than 30 children, but I'm digressing from the topic. The fact is, despite this act, Benoit is still considered one of the technically best wrestlers ever, as is Jericho. However, Jericho's career continues because he is still alive and simply doesn't want to retire. This slowly destroys his great achievements and good reputation until he is simply hated by everyone. Due to his advanced age, his in-ring skills continue to decline, which also destroys this (actual) advantage. If things continue like this, people will only remember negative things about him, even though, and we have to give him credit for that, he has achieved so much. People say about Benoit: great wrestler, terrible person. If things continue like this with Jericho, people will say about him: terrible wrestler, terrible person & he doesn't actually deserve that.
I think he should work with a part-time schedule where he can work more prominently in his matches and have 8 to 10 matches in a year with more star ratings that matters more for AEW and working as a full-time Color commentator on AEW commentary desk.
It’s funny he used to do that back in 2012-2016 with wwe, he came in for a few months, worked with a young talent, then eventually disappeared to work on fozzy or any project he doing at the time, I don’t know why he doesn’t do this again
I think an interesting video would be “Top 10 ways AEW could save itself and improve its product”, especially from a channel with Top 10 in its name. Wonder where I could find such a channel?🤔
Basically it boils down to Jericho being so self absorbed and thinking he is so necessary to aew’s success, which was true the first year or so, that he has to be on every show taking precious tv time away from younger guys who will be more important to the company going forward. His act is old and I think it’s time for him to move into more of a part time/ backstage roll.
Chris jericho is strange.... his association with donald trump, the allegations. He acts like he's 25 years old partying all the time. Seems to have forgotten about his family
This is a 10 minute video about why Chris Jericho is hated by everyone. A lot of people in the comments agree about give their own reasons. Two weeks ago he made a 8 minute video going over Saraya's career in WWE and AEW before explaining why he thinks everyone hates Saraya. Zero people agreed and the consensus was Saraya is not hated and that she hasn't been booked well due to her limitations from previous injuries. For anyone wondering why I am mentioning Saraya, it's because 2 weeks ago the person who runs this channel said Saraya was the female Chris Jericho. I didn't see it then and I don't see it now, because most bad things said about Saraya in AEW is again attributed to her past injuries that now hold her back, but the heat she gets when on TV seems to be normal heel heat. Most bad things said about Chris Jericho on the other hand is because he's always on TV (more times than Saraya) as well as his online presence on Twitter and the heat that he gets is "Go Away Heat".
I just get the feeling that Jericho - and he's not the only one on the payroll either - is going out to court "Go Away" heat. There are at least three others that come to mind and on screen all too often at the moment in AEW/ROH that are mistakenly convinced it's the way to drum up attention. Who will always get the laughs - the comedian that has their audience laughing with them or the comedian whose audience are laughing at them?
@@hishamhilal8332 IMO she doesn't have a bad personality. Controversies yes but everyone does, however none of her current controversies are linked to her career in AEW, except for maybe going on Twitter and vaguely saying she's tired of being pushed to the side and overlooked. That's literally the worst she does outside of AEW, but inside AEW she asks Roman Reigns during his run as Tribal Chief which can't be compared to the level of hate Chris Jericho gets. Chris Jericho doesn't just have "Go Away Heat', he has Tony Khan heat and so do the Young Bucks low-key.
I'm not a massive fan of Jericho, but I disagree with this somewhat. Hook isn't worse off since the feud. Although I agree that ROH should stay with ROH.
They are getting Jericho into a position for Joe to come back and take the ROH title. Apart from a short feud with Big Bill when he turns face either after Joe or a potential feud with Edge, I think we'll see him go part time.
You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become a gelatinous shadow of your former self desperate to cling to relevancy like a skidmark on the toilet bowl of life.
Jericho has about 8 and a half years left on that 10 year contract TK gave him. He'll be stinking the joint up until he's 62. Great job, TK. 😂 Also, as a long time ROH fan old, out of shape, clinging to relevancy (and his hair) Jericho is the antithesis of what ROH used to stand for.
6:15 True but u also have to remember AEW DOESN'T have a PPV Every month. A good example of this from last year is the MJF Adam Cole storyline. The reason it got dragged out so badly is because AEW doesnt have a PPV every month like WWE does nor do they have once a month "Special Dynamite" they can make feel like a PPV.
It's incredibly sad to watch AEW falter and fumble so quickly. Hopefully TK grows a spine and tells talent NO. or let's someone else book. Because he SUCKS at booking.
If Jericho were a REALLY bad booker, he'd make sure he "won" almost every single match of his. But since he seems to "lose" more often than not, I have respect for him in a way I don't for You-Know-Who (BROTHER!). But if he truly knew what was best for the company, he'd turn his character face and join Team AEW. It would make perfect sense. He played a major role in opposing the Alliance in 2001 and the Nexus in 2010, so he should oppose the Elite and Death Riders today.
Jericho was my favourite wrestler for decades. Wcw, wwf, wwe. All amazing. First couple years in aew he was cool. Now he's just shit. The thing about jericho getting tv is EXACTLY exactly what they said last time and jericho didn't help them get tv. And I'm positive he is champ now for the impending return of Samoa Joe, Joe getting his revenge on jericho and getting the title.... Leading jericho to say he made Samoa Joe a bigger name and turned him into a household name like he usually says
I love the y2j gets tv time bc personally I never got to see much Jericho growing up bc I only had smackdown. Also this has given a spot to big bill and Keith who I think are great as well. Chris can get annoying for sure but I don't think all the hate is warranted imo. Just wish he took himself more seriously tho.
Personally I would like ROH AND AEW to be COMPLETELY SEPARATE brands. U could make ROH the NXT of AEW for example and MAYBE having a once a year AEW/ROH crossover show.
I noticed that the Bully soundtrack is being used here. Great choice of music here from such an underrated game. Btw, Jericho's character is at it's worst. I feel like he's become delusional in both his current character and in general.
I believe Tony Khan just bought ROH to stop WWE from getting access to the library. Now it's an albatross around his neck, and he doesn't know what to do with it.
His problem is this insistence on being fresh and relevant. Most others wrestlers once they've reached their 50s are pretty set in stone about who they are because they've spent decades establishing themselves with the audience. Jericho for some (insecure) reason continues 'reinvent' himself like he's in his 20's trying to find that breakout gimmick.
I always liked jericho since he interupted the rock. But this is not working. The learning tree has reached its peak. The best thing jericho can do now is be involed with roh. Elevate roh and help the roster. Maybe give big bill and the bad apple the roh tag titles
It's really how far Jericho has fallen and it's caused a lot of people to take another look at all his 'poor me' comments about the start of his WWE run. On top of everything else though, I know people have laughed at Chris' midsection, prompting him to rush out and get his abs back but his pecs are really unsightly. Just gross. Unless he had a Scott Steiner situation where he had to have his chest operated on, the guy clearly just hasn't had done chest day in well over a decade.
If he drinks as much as the rumours suggest time becomes very messed up and might explain some of the strange things like feuds lasting ages.. his ego is out of control Been there with alcoholism..
I never seen a single aew episode but recently viewership has been very bad from what i seen on twitter, this seems up everything wrong with the show. Tony continues to push poplar talent that needs to help get over “new talent” yet it’s the opposite/ he’s pretty much hogan 2.0 at this point.
I think the point of the JAS and the Learning Tree was to parody Vince WWE. Jericho then decided to make it just as unwatchable because he forgot what satire was
A very sad and depressing fact Since the beginning of AEW Jericho had not had one single feud that hasn’t involved being in a faction or teaming with his apparent rival
Dude used to be in my top ten wrestlers, but he's been so devoted to coasting on his boss's fannishness & pretending to boost others while only boosting himself that he's an embarrassment. Also, given his physical shape lately, it sadly wouldn't surprise me if he had fallen off the wagon.
When guys leave Jericho's factions they never go up...they go down...with the exception of DG everyone else just slumps down the card and out of the company
I don’t get why they have insisted in trying to make a roh tv deal when they have never done something meaningful since Tony acquired in the first place , roh don’t even live by his name recognition since is less than a shadow of what it was , make something important before even trying to make a negotiation over a dead brand
His segments, along with the Young Bucks, and the women, are the lowest rated on the program. Now they have the indignity of being beaten by WWE's developmental on their own Wednesday night, and viewership has dropped into the 5's now. Tony Con Can't Book!!
If theyre going to give ROH if its own run on tv, they need to hire someone to run it differently then aew. If tk cant get ratings with the talent he has on aew, he stands no chance with roh. Itll never happen, but I'd love to see cornette running roh juxtaposed to tk on aew. Real-life hate between the two would make good tv and separate the 2 companies as best as possible while still having the same ownership
I am SO SO SO glad that I ain’t the only one who thinks that geriatric Jericho needs to retire!!! AEW has went down hill it ain’t as good as it used to be all the originals have been pushed out of the picture cause Tony Kahn is replacing the originals with WWE rejects Tony Kahn has lost the true meaning and spirit of what AEW used to mean!!!!!!

@@beerguy177 Jericho died on the way back to his home planet
Let's hope he makes it to his home planet
At least AEW is pushing a young talent like Chris Jericho. They could've put it on someone too old like HOOK or someone like that
😂😂good one bro
Incredibly well done video! This lines up with the sentiment I share toward Jericho. To think it was not that long ago he was cheered like a hero...
What made Jericho such a major player in WWE was that he when to disappear. His return would always be a moment of the year. Thats what needs to happen now.
Let say me this; getting rid of the FTW title was a good move by AEW. Now, what's funny about the rumors about this being about the a possible tv deal is that this is what people said during his first reign with Roh title. Also, if look into who is behind the rumors this time, its basically Dave Meltzer and random IWC accounts and has no basis outside of that.
He's getting way too much TV time
When is TK going to realize that Nobody cares about ROH? If anyone cared about ROH, they wouldn't have been sold to TK in the first place
Exactly. He should just end ROH and focus only on AEW.
TK put the ROH Title on Jericho to shop for a TV deal. He's easily the most recognizable name on the roster for most TV people! He's done TV in other forms! It makes sense for a business move but it sucks for fans!
Please don't tell me Tony Khan pulled a "Not Cosmetically Pleasing" on Mark Briscoe.
MARK. F•CKING. BRISCOE.
If you could hear it, there’s a Bully theme on the background😂
Due to Benoit's condition (especially his brain), one could have guessed this beforehand if it had been properly examined and STILL it could have turned out much worse. It “only” cost 3 lives. Don't get me wrong, I think it's as terrible as anyone else, but if it hadn't happened, it wouldn't have been investigated afterwards and therefore chair hits to the head wouldn't have been banned (which ultimately led to the safety of many people). Furthermore, things could have been even worse, e.g. B. a school shooting or something like that & if "only" people die, that's still better than 30 children, but I'm digressing from the topic. The fact is, despite this act, Benoit is still considered one of the technically best wrestlers ever, as is Jericho. However, Jericho's career continues because he is still alive and simply doesn't want to retire. This slowly destroys his great achievements and good reputation until he is simply hated by everyone. Due to his advanced age, his in-ring skills continue to decline, which also destroys this (actual) advantage. If things continue like this, people will only remember negative things about him, even though, and we have to give him credit for that, he has achieved so much. People say about Benoit: great wrestler, terrible person. If things continue like this with Jericho, people will say about him: terrible wrestler, terrible person & he doesn't actually deserve that.
I think he should work with a part-time schedule where he can work more prominently in his matches and have 8 to 10 matches in a year with more star ratings that matters more for AEW and working as a full-time Color commentator on AEW commentary desk.
It’s funny he used to do that back in 2012-2016 with wwe, he came in for a few months, worked with a young talent, then eventually disappeared to work on fozzy or any project he doing at the time, I don’t know why he doesn’t do this again
He’s booking has been a problem for 2 years or more. No one wants to see him. He completely destroyed his legacy and everything he has done
Pretty wild how long it’s taken people to realize the problems in AEW. But wait…..I thought the problem was Punk?!?!?
I think an interesting video would be “Top 10 ways AEW could save itself and improve its product”, especially from a channel with Top 10 in its name.
Wonder where I could find such a channel?🤔
Basically it boils down to Jericho being so self absorbed and thinking he is so necessary to aew’s success, which was true the first year or so, that he has to be on every show taking precious tv time away from younger guys who will be more important to the company going forward. His act is old and I think it’s time for him to move into more of a part time/ backstage roll.
Chris jericho is strange.... his association with donald trump, the allegations. He acts like he's 25 years old partying all the time. Seems to have forgotten about his family
Who care he likes trump? His main problem is that he suck now and takes too much air time.
This is the guy who calls CM Punk "cAnCeR"? Total projection
Have you considered, Dave Meltzer said Punk is a big meanie bojeanie
This is a 10 minute video about why Chris Jericho is hated by everyone. A lot of people in the comments agree about give their own reasons.
Two weeks ago he made a 8 minute video going over Saraya's career in WWE and AEW before explaining why he thinks everyone hates Saraya. Zero people agreed and the consensus was Saraya is not hated and that she hasn't been booked well due to her limitations from previous injuries.
For anyone wondering why I am mentioning Saraya, it's because 2 weeks ago the person who runs this channel said Saraya was the female Chris Jericho. I didn't see it then and I don't see it now, because most bad things said about Saraya in AEW is again attributed to her past injuries that now hold her back, but the heat she gets when on TV seems to be normal heel heat. Most bad things said about Chris Jericho on the other hand is because he's always on TV (more times than Saraya) as well as his online presence on Twitter and the heat that he gets is "Go Away Heat".
I don't think her personality is linked to her injury
I just get the feeling that Jericho - and he's not the only one on the payroll either - is going out to court "Go Away" heat. There are at least three others that come to mind and on screen all too often at the moment in AEW/ROH that are mistakenly convinced it's the way to drum up attention.
Who will always get the laughs - the comedian that has their audience laughing with them or the comedian whose audience are laughing at them?
@@hishamhilal8332 IMO she doesn't have a bad personality. Controversies yes but everyone does, however none of her current controversies are linked to her career in AEW, except for maybe going on Twitter and vaguely saying she's tired of being pushed to the side and overlooked. That's literally the worst she does outside of AEW, but inside AEW she asks Roman Reigns during his run as Tribal Chief which can't be compared to the level of hate Chris Jericho gets. Chris Jericho doesn't just have "Go Away Heat', he has Tony Khan heat and so do the Young Bucks low-key.
Both Jericho and Saraya have problematic significant others.
@dr.snakes and for that reason we should hate THEM? If that's the case people who dislike your parents should also dislike you.
From Y2J to the lolcow of wrestling
you are right he needs a break
I'm not a massive fan of Jericho, but I disagree with this somewhat.
Hook isn't worse off since the feud.
Although I agree that ROH should stay with ROH.
Jericho looking like ‘06 Ric Flair 😂
Flair still was bette
Soon, His wrestling pants gonna fall down like Flair during the match 😅
They are getting Jericho into a position for Joe to come back and take the ROH title. Apart from a short feud with Big Bill when he turns face either after Joe or a potential feud with Edge, I think we'll see him go part time.
It’s astounding that Bryan Keith is cool enough to successfully pull off a leather vest and was STILL put on a team with Jericho
You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become a gelatinous shadow of your former self desperate to cling to relevancy like a skidmark on the toilet bowl of life.
I would love ❤️ to face him in a AEW Match.
I enjoyed AEW but every time I tuned in, it was basically The Jericho Show and I got bored of it, it was a shame as there is plenty of other talent.
Jericho has about 8 and a half years left on that 10 year contract TK gave him. He'll be stinking the joint up until he's 62. Great job, TK. 😂
Also, as a long time ROH fan old, out of shape, clinging to relevancy (and his hair) Jericho is the antithesis of what ROH used to stand for.
6:15 True but u also have to remember AEW DOESN'T have a PPV Every month. A good example of this from last year is the MJF Adam Cole storyline. The reason it got dragged out so badly is because AEW doesnt have a PPV every month like WWE does nor do they have once a month "Special Dynamite" they can make feel like a PPV.
DIDN'T have, they do now
It's incredibly sad to watch AEW falter and fumble so quickly. Hopefully TK grows a spine and tells talent NO. or let's someone else book. Because he SUCKS at booking.
Jerichos body looks like someone let the air out of him
If Jericho were a REALLY bad booker, he'd make sure he "won" almost every single match of his. But since he seems to "lose" more often than not, I have respect for him in a way I don't for You-Know-Who (BROTHER!). But if he truly knew what was best for the company, he'd turn his character face and join Team AEW. It would make perfect sense. He played a major role in opposing the Alliance in 2001 and the Nexus in 2010, so he should oppose the Elite and Death Riders today.
Jericho was my favourite wrestler for decades. Wcw, wwf, wwe. All amazing. First couple years in aew he was cool. Now he's just shit.
The thing about jericho getting tv is EXACTLY exactly what they said last time and jericho didn't help them get tv. And I'm positive he is champ now for the impending return of Samoa Joe, Joe getting his revenge on jericho and getting the title.... Leading jericho to say he made Samoa Joe a bigger name and turned him into a household name like he usually says
I love the y2j gets tv time bc personally I never got to see much Jericho growing up bc I only had smackdown. Also this has given a spot to big bill and Keith who I think are great as well. Chris can get annoying for sure but I don't think all the hate is warranted imo. Just wish he took himself more seriously tho.
Personally I would like ROH AND AEW to be COMPLETELY SEPARATE brands. U could make ROH the NXT of AEW for example and MAYBE having a once a year AEW/ROH crossover show.
Watching so many wrestlers I once loved just sour their rep is so sad.
Weather its in ring or personal stuff its all a shame
I'm 36 and seeing Jericho wrestle now is worse than watching saggy ric flair when I was 9. Please Jericho, give it up son.
Even when he was over the hill... Before he was really over the hill in TNA, Ric Flair still had some magic.
I noticed that the Bully soundtrack is being used here. Great choice of music here from such an underrated game. Btw, Jericho's character is at it's worst. I feel like he's become delusional in both his current character and in general.
Meanwhile malakai black haven't won a singles title then lost all his momentum
I don’t necessarily have an issue with Jericho being the ROH Champion, AS LONG as he IS NOT on AEW TV.
Apparently he's a bargaining chip for ROH to getting a TV Deal. Hopefully it gets that deal quickly so Jericho can gtfo the TV.
I believe Tony Khan just bought ROH to stop WWE from getting access to the library. Now it's an albatross around his neck, and he doesn't know what to do with it.
His problem is this insistence on being fresh and relevant. Most others wrestlers once they've reached their 50s are pretty set in stone about who they are because they've spent decades establishing themselves with the audience. Jericho for some (insecure) reason continues 'reinvent' himself like he's in his 20's trying to find that breakout gimmick.
Honestly, I love Jericho and is up there as one of the best to do it but he’s time is done
I always liked jericho since he interupted the rock. But this is not working. The learning tree has reached its peak. The best thing jericho can do now is be involed with roh. Elevate roh and help the roster. Maybe give big bill and the bad apple the roh tag titles
Chris Jericho's current gimmick is coping with the fact that he has created his own "X-Pac Heat"
Chris Jericho is paid millions, so yes he should be highlighted and showcased.
It's really how far Jericho has fallen and it's caused a lot of people to take another look at all his 'poor me' comments about the start of his WWE run. On top of everything else though, I know people have laughed at Chris' midsection, prompting him to rush out and get his abs back but his pecs are really unsightly. Just gross. Unless he had a Scott Steiner situation where he had to have his chest operated on, the guy clearly just hasn't had done chest day in well over a decade.
If he drinks as much as the rumours suggest time becomes very messed up and might explain some of the strange things like feuds lasting ages.. his ego is out of control
Been there with alcoholism..
I never seen a single aew episode but recently viewership has been very bad from what i seen on twitter, this seems up everything wrong with the show.
Tony continues to push poplar talent that needs to help get over “new talent” yet it’s the opposite/ he’s pretty much hogan 2.0 at this point.
Man, I love Jericho. But whatever he's doing right now is not working. Not since the early Inner Circle
The problem isn't Jericho, but AEW's "creative team".
I think the point of the JAS and the Learning Tree was to parody Vince WWE. Jericho then decided to make it just as unwatchable because he forgot what satire was
I do want to see ROH get a tv deal so it can get more exposure. But Jericho as the face of ROH makes me sick
I loveeee it !!! The way everyone is bitching about Jericho ... for me is awesome !
A very sad and depressing fact
Since the beginning of AEW Jericho had not had one single feud that hasn’t involved being in a faction or teaming with his apparent rival
At least his Inner Circle and Le Champion run was decent
Dude used to be in my top ten wrestlers, but he's been so devoted to coasting on his boss's fannishness & pretending to boost others while only boosting himself that he's an embarrassment. Also, given his physical shape lately, it sadly wouldn't surprise me if he had fallen off the wagon.
Chris Jericho gets videos like this made
EVERYBODY WINS!!
DRINK IT IN MMMMNAAAANNNN
You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
Yes... ROH definitely needs a plucky young upstart Chris Jericho to spearhead their organization. 😂😂😂
When guys leave Jericho's factions they never go up...they go down...with the exception of DG everyone else just slumps down the card and out of the company
Might be a subtle shot at The Reign of Terror of HHH and Stone Cold Steve Austin.
I don’t get why they have insisted in trying to make a roh tv deal when they have never done something meaningful since Tony acquired in the first place , roh don’t even live by his name recognition since is less than a shadow of what it was , make something important before even trying to make a negotiation over a dead brand
Jericho needs to quit for a long time, then come back with something fresh because right now it's just horrible
Ishii is taking the ROH title from him which is why Mark sadly had to drop it too Chris
His act is meh right now. Also seeing him hold the ROH World Title hurts. He didn't need this.
His segments, along with the Young Bucks, and the women, are the lowest rated on the program. Now they have the indignity of being beaten by WWE's developmental on their own Wednesday night, and viewership has dropped into the 5's now. Tony Con Can't Book!!
Put the ROH world title on Shelton Benjamin
And the AEW world title on Bobby Lashley
Chris Jericho is becoming the Triple H of early 00s
The "hi guys" definitely came from Last and Cornette.
PLEASE do a top 10 saucy moments in WWE video with Editor Greg!
If theyre going to give ROH if its own run on tv, they need to hire someone to run it differently then aew. If tk cant get ratings with the talent he has on aew, he stands no chance with roh. Itll never happen, but I'd love to see cornette running roh juxtaposed to tk on aew. Real-life hate between the two would make good tv and separate the 2 companies as best as possible while still having the same ownership
Hook should have gone on to be roh champion, After he finished with jericho, Jericho has become what he hated about WCW.
Attitude like Hulk Hogan
Body like Seth Rogan
The jealousy for Jericho is strong. 💁♂
Jericho always cares about himself. He just has a flunkie to make himself look good
I am SO SO SO glad that I ain’t the only one who thinks that geriatric Jericho needs to retire!!! AEW has went down hill it ain’t as good as it used to be all the originals have been pushed out of the picture cause Tony Kahn is replacing the originals with WWE rejects Tony Kahn has lost the true meaning and spirit of what AEW used to mean!!!!!!
