Jericho's gotten, like, really bad on the mic.

[Lizuka #BLM]

HA HA SQUARE HEAD HE'S GOT A SQUARE HEAD.

I can't remember the last time this guy had a promo actually even kind of worth hearing. Didn't seem like the crowd was really even particularly on board with it tonight.

Idk what it is about Babyface Jericho, but since he was even in his prime, his promos NOSEDIVE when he is a face, and always have. He only has one mode and it's to revert to 90's era Jericho type of insults that just have passed him by.

For how innovate and creative the dude is with heel runs, I am baffled at how creatively stunted he is any time he has to be a face.

SLUT!!!!!! BITCH!!!!!!!!!

He's bearing down on that Love Guru phase of sapped comedic creativity.

Its like Rock in 2012-13, the whole feud with Eddie should bring his serious side though, just have PnP beat 2.0 and end the feud right away to focus on Eddie later on

He can't go around saying, "Mariska Hargitay," to people since that's under NBC's umbrella, but maybe he can go around greeting people with, "Gal Gadot" or something?

The weird thing with Jericho is that when he's a heel, he's usually so good at it that people eventually want him to turn face. But he's so bad as a face, that people beg for him to turn heel again.

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

Him and HHH are in that same boat where very good as heels but once they turn face it goes to shit

In Jericho case, he thinks he can get anything over and majority of the time he does. However, there is something diff when you are the only one in on the joke and say it with a scowl as opposed to a smile on your face like yeah cheer me

The terrance and phillip line was the best line he has probably had in ages but still it's hard to watch.

It really was a good line and maybe his best reference in ages

He got the crowd to pop for it even... he just did not have a good followup, hell 2.0 tried their damndest to get a thing out of it

At this rate KIngston is gonna shred him if they have a promo off soon lmfao

I really thought it was following it because KIngston would interrupt Jericho, but i guess it makes sense that they aren't there just yet.

I liked 2.0 getting a spotlight here, Jericho just really flopped when it came to the insults. Like he knows he's gonna have to bring his A Game when it comes to Kingston right? Or Eddie is gonna force it out of him lmfao

CITY THE SHOW IS IN!!!!

[The Dark Order Inferno]

It's the Jericho cycle, he arrives like a house on fire and can do no wrong either in ring or on the mic, his work starts to decline after a while, but still interesting, people notice he's kind of a d*ck and the backlash begins, his work continuing to slide... Then he vanishes a bit to do something else, host a TV show, recover from injury or whatever, then he returns, refreshed and with a new spin on being Chris Jericho, the cycle beginning again.

[dbrussel]

Bad? Nope. The Rock did that (and still), so that's not the definition of bad

[kingoftheindies]

The Fightful post show talked about this too. Said maybe he needs to talk to people like Bowens and Caster on what lines to use (the irony isn't lost on me)

[deezy]

It was terrible. 2.0 didn't help matters neither.

[Mid-Carder]

It's not so much that he's bad, but he seems to really phone it in as a face

Yeah... I think he needs to leave for a bit or go to commentary. Something needs refreshing. The squarehead and pinhead bit was pretty lame.
