F***, get a few tattoos and defend a co-worker and suddenly it's like nearly everyone wants your head on a stick. A co-worker who was an abusive bully. I was referencing Reigns, not DeMott. Strange how the latter offence is often referenced less than the former when it comes to "What did Jericho do?". Guess that kind of happens when Reigns is the most prominent guy in mainstream wrestling and DeMott has comparatively gone into hiding.

I can never dislike Jericho.
No, really, I can't, Roxie will beat me up.

I missed everything on Raw except for Jojo in her white dress. I think I'm off to a great start this year. I wish I had seen what happened with this in conjunction with the Raw thread though.

There was also the refusing to confront, challenge, or attack Stephanie on his podcast after the network promoted it as if he'd be as confrontational to her as Austin was to Vince.

The network didn't just do it that. Jericho did as well, "DON'T WORRY GUYS, I'M GOING TO HAVE MY PODCAST MY WAY! WWE CAN'T CONTROL ME!"
"So Stephanie, tell me about how much you love your husband and dad?"
"WHY ARE YOU GUYS MAD!? I HAVE CONVERSATIONS ON MY PODCAST! SUBSCRIBE TO TALK IS JERICHO AND RATE IT FIVE STARS!"

That's on the network's advertising and not really Jericho. Jericho doesn't conduct his podcast the same way as Austin does. (also it should be obvious with the Stephanie one since Cena was his first guest on Live with Chris Jericho)

Been thinking about it. I think it would be a good idea if Jericho had the out of touch Rad Dad gimmick. A 45 year old man that thinks he is cool and down with the kids. You know a guy that raps like this 'hey it's Jericho here and I'm here to say' Is this not his gimmick? I don't know where I read it, but someone compared Jericho to a "really cool camp counselor"

SCSA had a decent mix of confronting questions (even if he didn't follow up the Macho Man question) and some light BSing and reminiscing.

I immediately thought of the title of this thread being said in Dusty Rhodes voice.

I'll never forget when Jericho had the kid who plays Luke on Modern Family on his podcast and asked him why he was such an unlovable sack of crap with no future in the business. But then he gets Stephanie on there and starts lobbing softballs like the sycophant he is. Sickening. Go back to Toronto, Jericho.

I figured that was the start of a heel run that plays on the increasing backlash against veterans. Basically turning himself into a local man.
I mean that stupid phrase the thread is about, returning to win the rumble, interrupting the young heels, the ill fitting attire, re-hashing the same old material...
They're all criticisms that have been building especially against The Rock, The Local Men, Batista and of course Jericho himself.
