Thinking about it, it appears as though Jericho is just coming back to promote his f***ing book. He wouldn't have came back otherwise.
I expect he will "Save us" for about a month maybe two and be off on his way. I hope I am wrong but I am facing this realistically.
If I am right then I would rather not see him come back. There let the Jericho hate begin...(I think no one will agree)

Here's the story from how I understand it.
The guy was (understandably) burnt out on wrestling. He hadn't really been out with an injury or anything during his time in WWE, so essentially he had been on the road since he entered the company.
Writing his autobiography helped him rediscover the passion he had for the business and led to his finally being ready to come back and perform.

They wouldnt do over a months worth of vignettes for him with this SAVE_US stuff, if he was just coming back for a month or so.
They would just announce on Raw he'll be here next week or something like that. They wouldnt try for the secret return.

According to the magazine interview he also trained at Storm's school and even hired a personal trainer to get back in ring shape. I doubt he'd do that for a handfull of matches.

I just have a feeling that we are getting gipped. What about the Mr. America promos? That lasted for a while and look how that turned out.

He hasn't even done anything yet and there's already a hate thread?
Yeah, this place has gotten entirely too negative.

And the fact is, later in his career, Hogan is always sorta a let down. Let things ACTUALLY happen before hating it.

He's coming back, and he's coming back for a while. As mentioned, there's no way they would go to this trouble if it was just a few appearances.

If he was promoting his book, don't you think he would have come back BEFORE it was released and done WWE book signings instead of his own?
Jericho isn't that type of guy.

Ugh, that is sooo a Smark way of thinking. Agreed. The OP wants us to think he's "edgy" and "cynical" for not liking Jericho.

His book tour ended yesterday so it really wouldnt make sense if he just came back to promote his book

Ugh, that is sooo a Smark way of thinking. I hate that the term "smark" has mutated into something it was never intended to be. Whoever coined it needs to coin another phrase to describe the phenomenon you're speaking of because the term smark doesn't mean that. So many people on this board have turned being a Smark into some kind of social pariah, when in reality, based on the true intended meaning of the term, THEY ALL ARE SMARKS THEMSELVES. If you know that wrestling is predetermined, has certain politics that come into play, yet, still watch it and buy ppv's, dvds, and merchandise, you're a Smark. The end. The type of people you're talking about are the ones who purposely and maliciously hate things for no rational reason other than to rebel against popular trends, out of some silly need to go against the grain. They need a term that they can be lumped into. Because Smark is not what they are. That said, to reply to the original poster's statement. I think the fact Jericho (in interviews) has said when he returns he'll embark on a full-time WWE touring schedule, means that he's in this thing for a while. Guys intent on only working part-time don't do house shows and International Tours. When was the last time Foley worked a block of house shows as a wrestler?
