Is It Me, Or Is Jericho Not Over

[pokey]

Now, I like Jericho and all (watched him since WCW), but is it me, or is he not getting very strong pops?

[Deleted]

Nah, just depends on the arena. It varies from week to week, with everything on the show.

[The Wrestling Rambler]

He did when he returned. It was just that North Carolina was sooooooo quiet for everything except Flair on monday.

[BR329]

Its only been 2 weeks. And at this weeks Raw of you name wasn't Rick Flair or Jeff Hardy you got a Conway Pop

[CrazySting]

Putting him a match, his first match back,with Santino was a bad idea. They should have just cut promos on each other for 10 minutes.

Speaking of Hardy, even HE didn't get a big reception on Monday

[HRH The KING]

He's over. It was a simply a matter of the crowd in one particular location not being enthusiastic.

[Mitch 4:20]

ohhh noez!

[texaswhopper]

I swear this past Monday a few people booed him. Maybe I was hearing things.

Tough area. Its Flair country. When hes gonna be there the crowd is very psyched to see him.


Also its getting down by the south. A southern location has some wrestling crowds that can get rough.

Old fashioned people used to that old kind of wrestling.

I thought his return pop was huge, but this past week, not so much. Give it time though, he has been gone for 2 years and some new fans may not know who he is yet. I definately think he'll be getting bigger pops as time goes on. You can't help but to like Jericho.

It's the Carolinas again this Monday. He probably won't get a big reaction until Bridgeport for the 3 hour RAW.

I thought I heard boos, too. But that may have been me hearing Y-TWOOOOOO-J

[Rick Mad]

then i fell asleep and accidently missed Santino/Jericho and wanted to kill myself when i found out

There's no "K" in RIC FLAIR!!!!!!!!! Sorry to come off as a dick, but that's a pet peeve of mine.

[wwerules60]

It's you.

[Reverend BTY]

I think it's because of expectations. Seemingly everyone on the interweb loves him and it wasn't the blow away reaction that we'd give. Thus it seems underwhelming.

[PTBartman]

Also week one was a real crappy sound mix according to people who were there. This weeks crowd didnt deserve their tickets. The boos might be left over from his WCW days. Southern Wrestling crowds have long memories and unlike basketballs carry grudges.

I hate to break up the discussion, but this really could've went in the Jericho thread up top.
