Vince should hire Jericho to handle PR for the E, since that's what he's been doing this week anyways more or less.
He's the best, no question about it.

Jericho is much smarter than people outside wrestling give him credit for. They're learning. And you know, all those commentary stints on VH1 shows like "I love the 80s" and the like have completely prepared him for the cable news format. They book him expecting a heavily muscled jock. They get a media personality that's been well practiced and is finely honed. And then they get pwned. I bet it is the reason that Foley does not get interviewed much anymore. After Dateline burned him, Mick covers his ass well. I posted elsewhere about my own experiences with Nancy Grace. But, you're absolutely right... when they have you on and you go "off script," meaning that you say something they don't expect, they just stop booking you. Talk show booking is a lot like pro wrestling booking. Except that when you book pro wrestling you have to decide who should go over. When you book a talk show, you know going in that you want to host to go over, big time, every time.

No kidding.
Theo nly time I ever watch Dateline after that incident is To Catch a Predator, since I agree with their mission.

They interviewed him for a segment on backyard wrestling. They showed him one video that was pretty mild, where the only real dangerous thing that was done involved a light bulb. Foley said "I don't like that part with the light bulb, but other than that, it looks like fun." They then showed him another video, this time of the most insane things that you have heard of backyarders doing. He then begged the kids doing that kind of stuff to stop. When the piece aired, they go "We showed Mr. Foley this video (showing insane video) and asked him what he thought of it (show video of Mick saying the underlined part of his response to the tame video)"

"yea yea deliver some cheezburgahs up here!" Manager, people calling in to find out their hours if they forgot to check the schedule, calling in late or sick, and complaints, sometimes. We had a lot of calls on my night shift because one of the managers was a drug dealer, apparently.

From what I've seen the man should be the official mouthpiece for wrestling. He has made his points intelligently this week in everything he's been on. He has made the case for wrestling very well, better than anyone else could have. Honestly, I think Vince owes Jericho now. Big Time! I couldn't agree more. In fact I'll probably make that point on RBR tonight. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)
