Let us all not forget:
The latest episode of BTE ended with The Bucky Boys inviting Hangman to dinner after the show, and him declining, sitting alone in the venue staring at his (full) gear.

I hope they continue to incorporate this into the character work Jericho's already been doing with him and just have his reign and him be a trainwreck from a kayfabe sense. Like practically every day there's some new drama and hot mess Jericho's caused that's quickly dealt with and resolved before a new shit storm hits. Crank up the prima donna factor to its max.
Have him do an unironic recreation of the "HELLO CLEVELAND" bit from Spinal Tap during one of the shows too.

Two guesses how he's celebrating. Of course he owns a massive bottle of Grey Goose. He's probably got a bottle of Grey Goose as a keychain. You've never heard a story about Jericho losing his keys, have you? That's why.

The timing's great, since winning the title kinda wraps Jericho's "thank me!" gimmick. That paid off already, so it was a great time for a new bit.

You’d be surprised places the Stanley Cup was left, side of the road, flower shop, strip club, Rideau Canal..... And that was all just the time Pantera had their hands on it. The sad thing about the Atlanta Thrashers never winning was that Li'l Jon never got a chance to turn it into a Crunk Cup.

Someone also designed an Alpha Club version too. I'd buy both. I like the Alpha one a bit more

It's basically a dude that knows that the end of his career isn't too far away, and is making the last few years of it his greatest. Dignity is a seven letter word, nobody remembers the people that age gracefully.
The last days of Rome inside the squared circle. That is Chris Jericho right now and it is wonderous.

In the moment, Jericho apparently didn't even remember saying "A LITTLE BIT OF THE BUBBLEH", amazing how off the cuff the dude can be and them magic just happens.

Jericho is definitely one of those guys you just give a microphone and gold comes out. Which is exactly 100% what happened at his post show promo.

That cop is the new champ according to the precedent established by Hacksaw finding the WCW Television title in the garbage in 2000. Thems the rules. Lineal Champ!

I'm actually surprised by the amount of references in the social account of other medias to
*Jericho enthusiasm* LITTLE BIT OF THE BUBBLEH
Expected it to mostly be an AEW inside joke.

This is the most I’ve been entertained by Jericho in a very long time. "Mid Life Crisis" Jericho is tremendous!

Nice of some of you to keep encouraging a most likely functioning alcoholic by enabling him to drink more by loving his drunken antics and buying t shirts.
If you think I'm over reacting than look at this whole thread and just Google Jericho's history with drinking. I find it very worrisome.
