I was excited about Jericho's return, but not anymore. Now that I know he's nothing but a thief!
Chris, you better give Teddy Hart his vest back...

See the whole lack of a surprise doesn't affect my excitement about the guy's return at all. In fact, I kinda like the fact you could see it coming- it built anticipation from my perspective.

*sigh* Wrestling fans, you make me sad with how gullible you all are. WHY would the WWE, after all this "hype" be so dumb and leak it like that? If Stephanie was "checking texts and emails," why would they let this one swing by? It's either a fake or a swerve. I'm guessing fake. The WWE would not, with any stretch of the imagination, send out a fake WWE Magazine to its subscribers just to swerve the IWC. |

I can see the Luger or DDP, but I think he looks more like Neil Patrick Harris.

If that's a Photoshop it's an extremely good one.

More like Diamond Dallas Page with that smile and those eyes. And that's not a bad thing, that's a good thing. (BANG) |

That cover is awesome. In regards to his hair, when he first trimmed it I wasn't keen. But it grew on me. Same thing happened when he cut it short. He cuts his and it grows on you? WITCHCRAFT!!!(OK maybe just shenanigans) |

Can someone host this on a non-photobucket site so those of us at work can check it out?

This is now officially the worst-kept secret in wrestling since Pat Patterson's sexuality. If WWE and Stephanie were truly upset about fans knowing it was Jericho, then they really shouldn't have made it so obvious. They could have started by keeping Jericho's re-hiring quiet like TNA did with Kurt Angle. Last night's video with the whole "Break the Walls" was about as subtle as a brick the head, then the pre-emptive release of this magazine cover caps it. I'm still really excited to see how Jericho does with his second go-around in WWE, but they could have done a little work to keep his return some kind of a secret! But honestly, its been imminent for quite some time. Starting in June when he said he'd be coming back on Larry King Live, and then with the first video, about twenty seconds later, everyone started screaming "Jericho! Jericho! It's Jericho!" Then at No Mercy, Mr. McMahon acknowledged the Chicago crowd chanting "Y2J! Y2J!" and said something like "That's not happening tonight". And then rumors abounded about his return post-Survivor Series. You know what, I give WWE credit. Fans figured out that this was Jericho at the end of the first video. Naive fans figured out that this was Jericho by the time No Mercy ended. It was clear as day. WWE could've just ended it early and said, "You know what, they've figured it out. Let's have him return at No Mercy." Or "Let's have him return at Cyber Sunday." Or "Let's have him return in Philly on Raw". But for once, WWE just let it be. They had the day after Survivor Series pegged, and they stuck with it. Kudos to them. Next Monday night will truly be phenomenal. |

What I think she was saying is that the cover was possibly photoshopped. I can confirm that it is not fake. It is not photoshopped. As the WC's resident postman, I can confirm this. I delivered one to someone on my route today. |

I definitely got this magazine today. Pretty interesting that they released it to subscribers, you know, before it happened.
