So. All in favor of Jericho being at least tolerable if they keep him in hardcore matches? It's probably for the best, he can't go as well as he can in the past so might as well go all in on plunder brawls.

The fact there are still people trying to pretend current Jericho has X-Pac Heat proves either A - how well this new gimmick is working or B - which people don't actually watch the product but comment on it all the time, anyway.

He did have it a couple weeks ago. He’s trying his best to turn it around though, in true Jericho fashion.

He has really turned it around and kept it up now. I am impressed.
My wife doesn't always catch every weekly show so this was her first time seeing Jericho's new gimmick since he won the FTW and she was like "wow this is honestly really good".
She was pretty down on him after beating Hook, felt Jericho really needed a break from TV, and then he turned her right around this week.
I think he is killing it with this schtick. I also get immense joy when AEW doubles down on stuff that the reddit trolls and Twitter commenters howl about in the echo chamber.
Plus I stopped watching in 2002 before picking back up with AEW in 2022 so he is still freshly "Raw is Jericho" to me lol.

He has been fun to watch in the last two weeks, particularly with that match against Shibata which I admit I was NOT looking forward to but it ended up being a lot of fun.

It's really ridiculous to ever fully count Jericho out. He's made so many comebacks and gimmick shifts.

It's kind of funny, Jericho was having an amazing run before the ATT feud, then he turned it around with JAS but that feud went too long, things started to get interesting when they were going with the Callis family but that became a fiasco and the Golden Jets... let's just forget all about that.
But he's making the FTW stuff work

People are not going to love to hear this, his segments are some of the most viewed on the entire show (TikTok and YouTube)

Where’s that “He can’t keep on getting away with this” gif from Breaking Bad lol
I thought Jericho was really past the point where he couldn’t even reinvent himself enough but the SOB has managed it so fair play to him because the gimmick is working

That could explain Taz reactions on the broadcast.

I can't wait for the big LTU/Chase U football game. I can’t decide if it’d be the best or worst tailgating experience ever.

I can't wait for the big LTU/Chase U football game. Just keep Ridge Holland away from it, and let Thea Hail yell at Big Bill.
