I'd ROFL if WWE changes this thing from being Jericho to someone else to try and swerve the IWC. They'll probably swerve us all, and this will come up on the tron: Stroking Almighty Vince's Ego Understand, Smarks? ... followed by another 222 years of Cena's title reign.

sorry if this was posted
PWInsider
A number of readers have sent word that WWE's website is inserting secret links to the SAVEUS_222 video that began airing on their programming this past Monday. The viral campaign, which is building to a debut at the No Mercy PPV that many believe is Chris Jericho (although it could be someone else), has obviously created a lot of talk amongst fans.
Interesting to note is that an idea to run a viral concept was something that former WWE creative member Court Bauer had pitched to the company earlier in the year prior to his departure. At the time, the concept was being designed as a way to introduce the New Hart Foundation or to bring back Chris Jericho with the idea that the campaign would climax in the Fall during a major PPV.
The idea would be to slip something that didn't look as if it was produced or endorsed by WWE into the programming quickly to make viewers wonder what it was and go back to check it via their DVR or videotape, dropping encoded messages and vague hints (and even false hints) to create anticipation. The concept was inspired by some of the viral campaigns used to promote the forthcoming "Dark Knight" film and the Nine Inch Nails' year zero campaign. From what I understand, the idea would go to the next step with t-shirts and other similar items "secretly" given out at live events, etc. WWE didn't pull the trigger at the point it was originally pitched, but we'll see if that's where SAVEUS_222 is going.

First I've seen this posted. Good info to have. And perhaps now we know whose idea this all was. Thank you Court.

I'd rofl if it was Billy Gunn or someone lesser than Jericho, man the WWE hate threads that night would be ridiculous.

as someone said before B is the 2nd letter in the alphabet. But I think one of the numbers is supposed to stay a number and not turn into a letter.
So that gives you BB2.
That stands for Bull Buchanan/B2.
He's coming back to feud with Cena finally.

I'd laugh if it was like Shane Mchman's daughter. That Vince then forces to face him in a I Quit match.
Wow. I need to get a job on Creative.
My point A) Includes to references to the attuide era, which apparntly boots ratings. B) Makes Vince the main focus of the story C) Includes more then 1 Mchman, scoring an instant hit. D) A freckin I Quit match! By GAWD!

okay, so the .222 has to be code for the phone button letters which means it can be A, B or C. I say it's SAVE_US.BBB and will mark the return of Big Bully Busick!
EDIT: Okay, to be serious...
I think one of the main reasons people are jumping all over Jericho is because of the blue-ness to the campaign. However, the Hart Foundation originally wore blue when they debuted in WWE.
