I think they're more leading up to a heel turn.

I'd be glad to see Jericho as a heel again (and to grow the damn hair back out). Unfortunately, if he's doing anything with Michaels, we may just get a repeat of 2003. HBK was too full of himself to put Jericho over then, so I wouldn't expect much more from him now.I still say Jericho would easily work as World Champ if they gave him the right build up.
Thinking of that, it would be nice for him to win the KotR by screwing Punk, in the final. Or Punk could win and Jericho goes berserk and destroys him afterward...

How about Jericho and Shawn as a heel tag team? That would be awesome.

It was HBK's first WrestleMania since coming back from a 'career-ending injury,' why should he have lost to Jericho? If they fued now, HBK will definately put Jericho over.

Because HBK established himself many years prior to this and had just come off of a World Title run. Jericho was booked weak when he was champ and never got a real rematch afterward. Jericho needed the win to get back into the main event scene. Michaels could lose 50 matches and he's still Shawn Michaels. He didn't need it, in my opinion. He should have give Jericho a rub...

Well it's not like HBK's title run was so great either, it didn't even last a month. HBK could lose a hundred matches and stay over but the win at WM19 was important. If Jericho had won it would've made all the stuff he said about HBK before the match true.

I have a hard time remembering what these guys were talking about last week, let alone a couple years ago! Anywho... I've felt Jericho has been lackluster since the moment he was brought back to TV. He's never worked as the good guy for me, so I'm all for him screwing HBK and turning full heel again. ~Kyle

His position was in no way threatened by a loss, whereas Jericho would have benefitted from it....

Looking back on it, I don't mind Jericho losing. HBK put him over pretty well, he got a fluke win, and then afterwards shook hands went to shake hands with Jericho basically saying that Jericho was capable of hanging with him and that he was on his level. Then Jericho kicked him square in the nuts for one of my favourite WM moments ever.

A better ending would've been Jericho winning clean, shaking hands with HBK, and then kicking Shawn in the nuts.

I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere that Jericho wanted to put Michaels over in their Wrestlemania match and didn't Jericho win the rematch on Raw a couple of months later?

Wrestlemania is the big match. If he did job to him on Raw, I'm living proof that it's very forgettable by comparison...

Yeah, he'll probably just turn when he does the refereeing.

The only thing I disliked about Jericho's past heel run was that he jobbed way too much IMO. If he gets to look stronger this time than I'm all for it. He's beaten JBL, Jeff Hardy (twice) and Umaga so...so far so good there.

I think he turned heel and face about three times in one promo.
He can't be a full heel yet as he has not started to grow the evil goatie of doom yet
