Once you get past the weird opening segments, you should be all right. He's not like this for the interview parts.

Decided to give this a listen, 30 seconds in Jericho is so annoying...a minute in he's even more annoying...3 minutes in I'm wondering if I can sit through this! Is he normally this bad? Does he think randomly singing and randomly pronouncing words weird is entertaining? Yes, that's his schtick. Austin has his catchphrases and his random tangents, JR has his no frills old-timely approach, and Piper is the rambling old guy with a hankering for the good old days. To be honest, I skip to the interview with the lot of them these days.

Thanks a million for the great recap.
And yeah, Jericho is only good when he's interviewing wrestlers. Everything else he does on his podcast, I skip.

I'll check this thread and the reponses when I can sit down.
Lloyd Boner? Buddy Peacock?
What are these people thinking?

That just made me think, between the Chilly McFreeze and other names they proposed to Austin, and the names listed in this thread for Bryan, I wonder if the WWE purposefully gives some people horrible name choices on purpose to force the guy to come up with something on his own. Don't forget that Vince initially wanted Mankind to be something like Marvin the Mutilator and when they wanted Jericho to rename the Liontamer he was suggested names like the Salad Tosser and the Standing Torture Device (STD get it?)

I have to admit you guys were right! Once it got to the actual interview it was the best one I've heard. Forward to that and it's a fantastic and well done interview, jericho lets him tell his stories, pace is quick but no rambling and came across like two old friends chatting away having fun.
Side not-DB says he came up with the names,sounded aalmost like he chose bad ones so he could keep Bryan danielson, although he doesn't quite say that.

I'm just picturing Cole, in his ridiculously excited voice screaming "BONER! BONER! BONER!" as Bryan pinned HHH. It would have been the most accurate description of how people reacted to that moment in the world. HHH just won't stop screwing with Boner. Can he beat an opponent hard as Boner? We'll find out as RAW rolls on!

"Marvin the Mutilator" sounds like the name of a fictitious wrestler on the "wrestling episode" of a sitcom.

Buddy Peacock would have resulted in so many horrible "strutting" jokes from King.

I'd love to hear the commentary when Boner or Peacock got busted open.
"Triple H is handling the bloody Boner!"

Imagine if Lloyd Boner had won the main event of WrestleMania XXX. YES, IT'S BONER TIME IN THE BIG EASY!
