8 months in, Jericho would have looked like a shiatsu amongst rottweilers. And I'm not talking body size. It's WrestleMania main event. 4 way elimination. It would have hurt Jericho's momentum and for what? To be the 2nd guy eliminated by Triple H? Jericho had a really nice day at WrestleMania 16 in the European & Intercontinental Titlea Triple Threat match & his 24 hour European Title reign contributed towards the mid card that produced future world champions. What went down was the right call.
Agreed but the 2 title triple threat match was better on paper their were really no winners just a loser since angle lost both belts I remember being excited about the triple threat stipulation as a kid glad it was the last one
@@imdikonps4396 there were 2 winners because 2 walked out as champions. Both the winners were respectively pinned by each other so to your point... I think it's fair to say that this match worked just as well for Kurt as it did for both his Challengers under triple threat rules. I believe ultimately, there were 3 winners. 4 if you include the fans.
I think it was the right call in wwe at the time jericho v Benoit v angle added more the the card then jericho in the 4 way he was not a bigger star then big show at the time and foley was uncertain who was certainly a top star at that Time period jericho was certainly and had always been over
The main event of Backlash should have been the main event of WrestleMania 2000, the exact same match booked exactly the same way second for second and bell to bell with Austin enjoying a beer with Rock then leaving the ring to give Rock his moment.
Nah, Big Show and Mick Foley felt out of place at the Main Event of WM. It should have been Rock vs HHH at WM with Rock going over. It doesn't matter if he dropped it a month later to HHH at Backlash.
@@edwind.trujillo5572 that’s exactly what I said when I said the main event of Backlash should have been the main event of WrestleMania 2000, Rock and Triple H one on one with Austin helping Rock against the McMahon’s so Rock wins and the show closes with Austin and Rock sharing a beer
Had Jericho been in the mainevent of WM 16 his later win as the 1st undisputed Champion would have meant a lot more and been more climatic. WM 16 was supposed to be a fatal 4 way including the current then superstars HHH and Rock and the future Superstars Jericho and Show. It was the right moment for the millenium. Replacing Jericho with Foley was dumb af.
I lost all respect for JR. Tucker is one of the few people that will go after anybody (left or right) and the fact JR has an issue with that is pathetic.
Agreed. I’m conservative but improve the fact that Tucker holds Conservatives responsible when they do/say something stupid. Just a couple days ago he torched Ted Cruz and rightfully so after what he said about January 6th
@Marc Carran Tucker calls out BS, and is the exact opposite of a Karen. A Karen is Maddow, who complains and pushes one BS conspiracy theory after another!
@Marc Carran Compared to corporate media outlets he’s the most decent opinion host. He gives real leftists like Jimmy Dore, Matt Taibbi, Aaron Mate time on his show. He’s the only anti war cable host as well. We’re in such polarizing times because so much of the population refuses to think for themselves. No other major news networks have real leftists like the ones I mentioned. Doesn’t that tell you something?
I'm not the biggest fan of Tucker Carlson, but if he is the one that gets on Jim's nerve the most... That tells me all I need to know about this old boomer. Yes, Jim was great as a Wraslin' broadcaster, but like Jim Cornette... He knows nothing about basically everything else. I'm coming to realize just how ignorant most of these wrestling people are. With some exceptions basically. These folks are no different than the Hollywood people. Fake fake fake.
@@minechaftgamer288 I don't even want Trump to run in 2024, but if you think the leftoids are "live and let live" people... All I can do is laugh at that suggestion.
Wrong! It wasn't another McMahon family member to stand by Chris Jericho in his corner! JR I got ya back on Tucker Carlson that little man is all talk on television to please his boss',he wouldn't dare say that in person.
@@Majestros 4 McMahon family members...Vince in The Rock corner,Shane in Big Show Benedict Arnold corner,Linda in Mick corner and Stephanie in Triple H corner. No other McMahon available for Y2J because he hadn't made it to this level. And no other McMahon left so bye Benedict Arnold Chris Jericho. His little a s s couldn't hang with the big guys,main event people. He was a little cruiserweight.
@@ReyO0 Idgaf about his little racist ass. You do know or should know I am a Black guy. He and you are both idiots. Those words he says on television will get him hurt outside. Remember that since you defending this loser. Go the f away before I hurt your pride and feelings kid.
@@larrystilltheeman39 Tucker is the only corporate news host to have real leftists like Jimmy Dore, Aaron Mate, Matt Taibbi talk on cable. And he’s been consistently anti war. Hurt my pride and feelings? Pride comes from accomplishments. bringing up that word to someone you don’t know shows a poor understanding on the word.
Happy 70th birthday JR 3rd of January
That's why I love and respect Jim Ross he speaks his mind and tell the truth
No he doesn't. He gives his opinions.
And just like Jim Cornette's, his opinions are... questionable.
Happy birthday jr and many more

It should have been the rock vs triple h 1on1 . With the rock going over.

Love this channel
Love JR so much more from this video

So glad Jay lethal is in aew , p.s what's that roller movie with Jr in it on comitator

Wrestlemania 2000 should've rock vs HHH 60 minute iron match with Austin returning and screwing HHH.
why's JR hate Tucker Carlson? i get why someone like cornette would, but i figured most wrestler types love conservative media
Why wouldn’t he?
Who's tucker?
Great game too
I lost all respect for JR. Tucker is one of the few people that will go after anybody (left or right) and the fact JR has an issue with that is pathetic.
Agreed. JR is a big leftist
He seems to be taking classes from Jim Cornette in "How to be a political nutcase".
Tucker Carlson is the man has jr started smoking crack whata bizzare choice of someone to hate
Agreed. I’m conservative but improve the fact that Tucker holds Conservatives responsible when they do/say something stupid. Just a couple days ago he torched Ted Cruz and rightfully so after what he said about January 6th
Ah yes lefties tend to get annoyed with Tucker because he’s always right.
I love JR but AEW should bring in Tucker Carlson to show them how to build an audience. 😉
Ok 👌 JR. Tucker Carlson is AWESOME AND AMAZING.. HE DON'T SPREAD FAKE NEWS AND PROPAGANDA.. UNLIKE CNN NEWS!! #MAGA #TRUMP2024
Exactly. After watching this, I lost a tremendous amount of respect for "Good Ol" JR!

From the U.K it's strange how it is only ever Trump lovers boring up the comments on UA-cam. At least those pesky commie libs leave me in peace.
