They got tangled up against the wall and Lesnar told Jericho to punch him or kiss him. The fanfic writers are going to have a field day with this one.

Eh, I didn't see Summerslam, so I don't know the context, but both guys come off like tits to me. Jericho for overreacting to a situation he didn't have the full facts about, and Brock for IMMEDIATELY going off and starting shit instead of just explaining the facts. I get that Brock's got his silly "I'm an anti-social asshole" gimmick to protect, but still. Part of being a wrestler is not having exceptional social grace. Personally if I was concerned I would have just asked Lesnar "Orton was really bleeding bad out there, did something go wrong?". But that's far too reasonable. =P

Jericho's an OG. You have to respect that dude for not backing down.

The best part about this weekend is the WWE section turning in a youtube comment section congrats. Oh we do that every Monday, Tuesday, and one Sunday a month. If nothing else we're dependable for clucking like chickens at the slightest excitement. We didn't even get the Takeover honeymoon this time.

And from the story it could have totally been avoided if Michael Hayes just said something to Jericho when asked.

My username is what it is for a reason. Because Jericho is my guy, and has been my guy for years.

I feel it also bears mentioning that the whole "If you're not punching me that means you're weak/scared and therefore gay, do you want to kiss me?" thing is exact the kind of taunting I'd expect out of a bigoted dullard like Lesnar, and proves that he hasn't progressed that much from his old "write that down in your little notebook" self. MAN THE KISS THING WASN'T A HOMOPHOBIC DIG AT ALL. SMH IF TWO PEOPLE ARE STARING AT EACH OTHER FACE TO FACE FOREHEAD TO FOREHEAD THEN IT LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE ABOUT TO KISS OR FIGHT. STRAIGHT FORWARD.

Okay so Chris Jericho didn't beat up Brock Lesnar backstage...but let me ask you...who could? Yeah, let's do this again. Meng. Meng is the only person I believe who could do it. Maybe they need to have him on the payroll to just hang out in gorilla. Just in case.

I loathe how this article was written. SO f***ing stupid + cringy. I also don;t like Hayes, such a suck up.

You always get hurt in wrestling, it's unavoidable. It is brutal but it's a one-off moment agreed to ahead of time by both participants. You're entitled to not like it but saying "it's 2016" like it's some moral outrage just seems like a overreaction. Um, this was entirely avoidable, that is the point. Agreed upon or not, 2016 or 1916, letting someone elbow you in the head to split you open and have you bleed copious amounts of blood for the entertainment of others is crazed. It is even more crazed when it is 2016 and there other ways to achieve the look of having been split open by a person striking you in the head over and over again without actually inflicting the damage. Again, how is that any worse than say Diaz/McGregor on Saturday? Obviously it's a sport, but it still falls under the umbrella of entertainment. It was two people fighting in a cage, knocking each other senseless and bloodied, for the sake of money and the entertainment of others. Compared to one pre-agreed upon elbow to the forehead to add impact and emotion to a worked wrestling match. Yet one is normal and the other is 'crazed'?

So this was Brock Lesnar having a sudden mid-confrontation realisation of how ridiculous his usual brand of macho looks from the outside, from your perspective, rather than a goad with obvious subtext?

The more stories I've heard about Brock the more I dislike him as a person.
This year after Ariel Helwani revealed that he was gonna fight at UFC 200 he actually called the ferttitas and Dana White and demanded that Ariel got his ass kicked.
In his ovw days apparently he was a bully and abused the locker room. Even with women, after he did it with Stacy Cornette, Jim actually pulled a gun at him.

Oh we do that every Monday, Tuesday, and one Sunday a month. If nothing else we're dependable for clucking like chickens at the slightest excitement. Sure but it's usually not this like this lol there were some people that acted as if Brocks head need to be on a pike i just don't understand how people care so much about something so easy to tell was worked or for that matter how anyone would defend someone who is actually a wrestler and should know it looked fake as hell after the elbows for not just waiting and asking Orton instead of getting all whiny. Jericho is from the old guard, he's got it in his system to protect "the boys" above all else. It's largely a brotherhood for guys like him. Judging from the Ambrose comments (hell, Punk's old part timer rants for that matter), and how quick Jericho here was quick to get overheated, I'm wondering if there's a schism between the mainstays and Brock, and the regulars are looking at Brock as an outsider. Were I to guess, Jericho just got into an overprotective brother mindset and when he asked Hayes about it so he could get his head straight the lack of answer was enough to piss him off. Couple that with alpha male Brock adrenaline still being high from the match and they got into a pissing contest. I can see this from both their viewpoints. But you know who I can't? Hayes. f*** him on this one.
