[@PiCheZvara]

Jericho deep inside is just bitter that he left WWE at the end of his career to attempt Monday Night Wars, version 2.0 and it not working out. Jericho was always vain, he deep inside HATES that he left a comfy WWE part-timer main roster spot just to compete with WWE developmental. And he knows at this point, even if he does come back to WWE, Vince won't treat him as well as he did before. And he knows he won't get that storybook career ending he probably desires. Vince repays loyalty and Jericho was loyal for years and was repaid for that by multiple title runs, main events, creative input into his feuds, extended time off whenever he wanted, etc. And he left, because his one match with Kevin Owens was second from the bottom on a stacked WM card, where AJ was opening, Ambrose was on the pre-show, etc. He didn't focus on the fact WWE allowed him a main event program with creative freedom on RAW for 8 months before that, no. He focused on the fact Vince dared to choose Goldberg/Lesnar over him and Owens because Goldberg drew better ratings. Jericho, plain and simple, fucked himself and at the tail end of his career, he's running around with glorified indie darlings like Sammy Guevara, Orange Cassidy on a program he knows is below what WWE's doing. Now his own work is still good, because he's too proud of his legacy to just phone it in, but he complicated things for himself for sure and that's why he still has some alcohol in his hand and that's why he's occasionally lashing out like this.

He was jobbing to a rookie John Cena few months later. "But the feud with HBK in 2008" it was still around the second show and the second belt in the promotion.

It was a total Jericho stroke fest show. He does deserve recognition for until recently a great hall of fame 30 yrs but his match really should've been booked wayyyyy better with an actual opponent because of it being a special night.

[@AWX_Wrestling]

They had Lance Storm congratulate Jericho on his 30 year. Why didn't they bring him in for the match? At least Storm looked like he was still in shape and could go and they broke into the business together.

Jericho's in hard for AEW because Tony Khan and co. worship him. Giving him an episode long celebration for 30 years in wrestling where you can't reference the first 29 years of it is proof.

[@stephensmith5724]

Yep because WWE on most of that footage sad isn't it even the Smoky mountain tapes where him and last storm was The thrill seekers they can even use that that's f****** sad cuz if you're going to do what show to celebrate his 30 years you want to have his WCW footage his ECW footage his WWF footage WWE footage even his days in Japan footage in the '90s mind you not now and in FMW

The Positiveity Meme Again? Well might as well debut this theory: Anyone think that Chris Jericho's stupid ideas are directly correlated with Dynamite suffering in some way in the Ratings and its fans? I mean first it was Stadium Stampede then it was Chris V.S. Luther in the Main Event for his anniversary. That's like two strikes unless I'm missing something stupid he did earlier. EDIT: 13:31: Try This Explanation I stole from a Review once: 'The Left just cannot accept that people can observe something and come to different conclusions than them, so they must somehow represent them as 'damaged' 'out of touch' or crazy as how they can explain people holding differing views.

[@nooneinparticular5273]

Yes yes, we know. We've heard it all a thousand times. The right are *such* free thinkers. Pat yourself on the back some more. That's why so many of you parrot the same talking points and believe every word Donald Trump, the real estate agent, says without question. That's why when scientists tell you things aren't going well, be it global warming, covid or pretty much anything else, you search desperately for any conspiracy theory or doctor without principles to tell you what you want to hear so you can dismiss everything else as some plot by the spooooky and totally real shadow government. The world is on fire, a virus is running rampant, police are and have always been murdering black people in droves, but don't worry, Donald says everything is fine, those are lies by the "evil left" no one is dying and anyone who did die? Well, nothing that could have been done about it. Ask California fire men if everything is okay, ask hospital workers if things are fine, ask the dying, jobless and homeless if the world is just fucking fine and dandy, not the sheltered billionaire who spends all day griping on twitter and watching tv from the fortified mansion and gets his every whim catered to. Who's more likely to lie? Him and the other wealthy people who benefit from him or almost everyone else? There's a lot of white knighting on the internet and almost universally to no end, but when folks like you fight for the Republican party (or, if you happen to not be American, whatver your local national right wing equivalent is) they'd be more than happy to fuck you.

[@ChaseSchleich]

I think what Chris was saying is, if Jim would merely critique rather than destroy, they might have hired him as a consultant, but with the way he does things, he's got too much heat with too many of the wrestlers (and I'm sure Tony Khan himself) to ever get any of them to listen to him. Personally, I would love for Jim to consult for AEW because he wouldn't be scared to speak up. Arn and JR have both said that they just accept the way things are done now. Of course, no one is going to change how many high spots are done and the speed of the matches now, but that doesn't mean you can't speak up about some of the silliness, lack of psychology, and a lot of the just overall bad habits that so many of the green wrestlers have that need to be broken. Jim would have no problem bringing that stuff up to the talent. Can he say it in a way that they'll actually listen to it though is the issue. People now a days don't respond to being called idiots, yelled at, told they're completely awful etc. That worked 30 years ago when it was common. Now it's very rare and people respond to it by just ignoring it or saying "fuck off."
