I really don't mind this at all. So he's somewhat incompetent at using the internet, who cares? He's not delusional like Matt Hardy or anything. Unlike Matt, the angle he's working us for is ACTUALLY HAPPENING. It's just that he's not all that good at the "working" part. Whatever, no big deal, as long as he's still as awesome as usual when he actually gets here.

at this point, i really don't care if Jericho comes back. his online presence has soured me. i no longer follow him on Twitter because i was tired of his incessant whining about guys "copying" him. whether he was "kayfabing" or not, it was tedious.

You know, it would be absolutely hilarious if January 2nd turned out NOT to be him. "What? I TOLD YOU GUYS IT WASN'T ME!"

Sometimes less is more.
If Jericho made his return by turning up one night completely unannounced on RAW with no hints at all beforehand - whether online or with mysterious videos - he'd probably have more of an impact than the It Begins and the Break the Code stuff that he's had going on.
Unless, of course, It Begins is nothing to do with him.

I really hope he is in studio rather than back in wwe cause the internet IWC peeps think they know everything and every time they are wrong I smile like the grinch. Undertaker all the way. Internet IWC is redundant.

So is he supposed to come out and say "ok lol, the dirt sheets are right guys. I'm coming back January 2nd. Tried to keep quiet but it didn't work haha, you got me! See you then, nice detective work IWC. ;D" the way some of you are acting, its as though he should come out and acknowledge how right you are for knowing in advance about his return.

Good for him! He's done everything he possibly can in WWE and if he returns (again.) it's just a matter of time before he gets stale...better he do what he wants then keep coming back to WWE and becoming a joke.

Jericho saying hes done with WWE is like me saying I'm not sitting at my computer, when I'm clearly sitting at the computer

I'm honestly sick of this Jericho crap. It's obviously going to be him on Jan. 2 since there's really no other logical option. My bigger issue is this: So what if it IS him? He'll come back, get a pop, and then end up jobbing to Punk in a feud and then drift aimlessly. Personally I don't even think he and Punk will have all that good of a WM match. It'll likely get shortchanged on time due to Rock/Cena and HHH/UT, get like 12 minutes, and everyone will wonder what happened.
Jericho has been buried about 100 times over the years to the point where I don't think he means much of anything.

Him being buried is likely what he wants, since it's blatantly obvious how much of a star he has become in the world of wrestling. Helping out the new guy only makes sense.

So some hate that Jericho is returning because instead of saying, "Yes, it's me!" (keeping in mind it may be him) he is instead saying, "IT IS NOT ME! STUPID FANBOYS!" We want kayfabe in wrestling at one monent. Then we don't want kayfabe. Can we stop being fickle please?

^^ I think it would be a lot less annoying if he passively mentions it, instead of constantly bringing it up himself and refuting rumours by saying "I'M DONE WITH WWE, THEY SUCK. I DON'T CARE ABOUT THEM!"
Something like "To those who keep mentioning the 1/2 promos: I'm well aware of them and I have no interest in it" would suffice. Then ignore all the other messages.
But I wouldn't be surprised if WWE wants Jericho to keep denying the rumours by stating he's done with wrestling considering how obsessed they are with twitter these days.

People aren't complaining about him denying the rumors. People are complaining about him denying the rumors...in a not so brilliant way.
(I take that back if it's really not him though)

Every time I hear people complain about how Jericho is acting like this and being an ass, I'm just thinking... "marks..."!

Except no one's falling for his gimmick, they just think he's doing it badly and more than anything being irritating with it. Which might be the point but then again, everything I've read of Jericho's over the years suggests the man isn't very smart. Jericho's kind of odd for me. I recognize that he's talented and he can be very entertaining at times, but I've had virtually no interest in him since his Cena feud in 2008 and as a person I don't like what I've seen of him at all. Probably why despite owning his book for years I haven't read it past the first few chapters.

Jericho is one of my all time favorites but he has bored me for a few years now, and if he's happy playing with Fozzy he should just stick to doing that. It's time for the new guys to step up.

Agreed there. Doesn't help that Punk / Jericho's happened plenty of times already.

They should have the last video tonight be titled "Deception", and then have Jericho surprise attack CM Punk and beat him down in his hometown. The January 2nd thing would have been a ruse from the start, and Jericho could even address it in his first promo by saying that you have to keep an element of surprise or some such. tonight then? when nobody/few is/are watching dye due to the holiday? And isn't Raw taped for airing on Xmas weeks?
