Jericho is toying Australia late February early match with fozzy!!
I'm really happy with him returning and even more so his return was a legit surprise but I'm not sure full time

Jericho's last run was so awful. "I'M GONNA GET YOU TO BOO ME BY BEING SOME SORT OF QUASI META HEEL ON TWITTER AND NOT SPEAK BOO HISS SMARKS!" Instead of being a face that people wanted to cheer, he was the heel who comes out to confused reactions and cheers. He was CM Punk's recent heel turn only sub RESPECT and Heyman with a light bright jacket. Hopefully he knocks the s*** off and stops trying to reinvent the wheel, just be a face and wrestle Cesaro and stuff. I think it's more that the wheel was reinvented, and Jericho tried to resist that. |

If lesnar was back full time, it could be huge. I think there is a ton of money in him.
Jericho, as much as I like him, is just going to take away a roster spot from someone else without really causing any rise in the ratings.

I want Jericho to be a heel again, but not the crappy one from last year, I want 2001 king of the world Jericho. The feud between him and Miz will write itself. As they discovered last year, Jericho is at that point guys like Austin, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Hulk Hogan, etc. got to. He's now a representation of the WWE the fans grew up watching, and they pretty much refuse to boo him. I think he'll always be a babyface any time we see him from now on. Then in that case, turn Miz heel again and let Jericho destroy Miz TV on an episode of the Highlight Reel. |

I actually see Jericho and Lesnar doing the exact same thing. Ultimately, these men are at a point financially where they don't HAVE to do this, but hey, if someone wants to pay them a full time salary for a part time schedule, why the heck not? |

I hope to go to WM30, was supposed to be going this year (kind of happy i am not now due to rematches galore) but I can't wait to see Lesnar live. The guy can do no wrong in ring or character in my opinion.  Great to see Jericho back as well |

Holy crap, I thought Jericho's appearance last night was one off.
If this is true, I'm happy.

It's hard to get invested in a returning superstar when you know that they'll be gone again in a few months. I disagree; if they're entertainig, i can enjoy the time they're there. Its like the Mitch Hedberg bit about red wine, where the girl asks him doesn't wine give him a headache, and he says "eventually, but the first, and the middle part are amazing. Mitch do you want an apple? No, e eventually it'll be a core. No one says that." |

Glad Lesnar will be appearing again. Just wish Vince could persuade him to come full time.

Last time Jericho signed short term deal he put over Punk and Ziggler huge and maybe some others I can't remember so I have no problem with him coming back. I've always liked him.
MMA Brock who breaks peoples bones for fun is awesome.

I read somewhere that Jericho's feud will be with... {Spoiler}Ryback. If so, what a waste of a return. |

If lesnar was back full time, it could be huge. I think there is a ton of money in him. Jericho, as much as I like him, is just going to take away a roster spot from someone else without really causing any rise in the ratings. That the thing you forget. Jericho puts over people. I would rather have Jericho put over someone then just some filler match for someone who will not become bigger from it. He doesn't take a roster spot away from anyone. Honestly the WWE features the same guys on there shows weekly. Who is going to lost there Raw spot or Smackdown spot? Brodus Clay? The man is going to feud with Dolph and more then likely put over Dolph while having a good match. Which will mean a lot more then Dolph beating someone like Kingston. Why should anybody care for the part time? Because the already done it all in the WWE so there matches now feel special because you don't get it every week. So when they are there it a special big fight moment. The same for why we care so much when the Undertaker shows up. Big match fight is coming. It's not there fault that the WWE is willing to pay them to do a job. and if fans are paying to see them why not? because A. the writers can't make another big star like Cena to draw money or B. no matter how hard they try to push someone there missing something to bring them to that level. Kingston as been tried to be push several times why does he get push down so fast? Because all he has is athlete talent but can not cut a promo to save his life. Sure he gets cheered but I don't see his T shirts selling EVEN at a discount price like I saw at a Raw show a year ago. He gets cheered because he a face but he not able to draw money or do enough to maker fan pay to see what he does. |

Jericho isn't really putting anyone over because beating him means almost nothing.

Jericho isn't really putting anyone over because beating him means almost nothing. Yeah, as much as I love Jericho and like having him around & enjoy his willingness to put people over...his stock has dropped considerably. Namely because he's struggled to pick up wins and has had zero accomplishments as of note lately. There's a reason why the Ziggler shtick before he left last worked, because it rang true. |
