Ah, didn't realize that was the case. Well, good luck to him.

it's 4th of July in my asshole
Shame about CJ his gimmick was really good and was great for a heel, making him a jobber was bullshit. Sad that Bull will be next, he's more exciting to watch in the ring than Owens has been.
Finished Mania, dat end.
Onto Raw. Man, Brock is a cool ass bawssss. Rollins is ma dude.
Will watch the Neville match then bed. A cape?, give him a mask or at least a paper bag.
That was quick. He has the best kicks. Cant wait for some Neville/Rollins PPV's.

Here are New Japan's April Fools jokes. The Evangelion they signed last year gets piloted by Taguchi for a match, Nagata endorses his own contact lenses and Nakamura gets his own 80s action movie.
Why isn't this real God dammit

No disparagement of the O'Hawk, please.
Too bad for Barrett there aren't any weight training exercises that make you an entertaining wrestler.
The truth often inflicts the most severe burns.
I double check everything I read today, just because.
That being said, the new PC on a stick models from Intel and Asus look nice (and legit).

Enzo says goodbye to CJ on his instagram
Has to be the weirdest feeling when guys you've been with for awhile and who became your friend just aren't there anymore

Sandow looks like he hasn't hit the gym in a while.
And it's so stupid they took the pink trunks away from him. Was it because of the Cena Month, aka Breast Cancer Awareness?

Does Jericho think people care if he shaves his head?

CJ was one of the few modern relevant gimmicks they had. Owens trolling the shit out of Riley on Twitter is another.
I have no doubt some do
Well, he was The Miz' stunt double soooo...
The Miz is in good shape. Miz hits the gym. Miz clearly does a triple sesh of chest every week, but it works for him so that's good.
Mizdow is in the opposite of good shape.
I said this here when this first started. I agree and it's sad. The guys life work and legacy being wiped away.
It's ultimately just making Konami look petty as fuck.

would love to get the full story on what happened with konami.
I know a few people who have worked for them, and have heard Tomm Hulett (for whatever that's worth) talk about the company and they all said its been terrible there for the past decade. A lot of execs just taking trips around the world and writing it off as research for games. Fox engine is nice but I guess has a hard time scaling and that's an issue maybe? Who knows
JUST UHNUTHA VICTIM of upscaling to the tazzmission of the HD ear.

Already got worked into a shoot with that "Back to the Future" trailer.
Fuck the internet today man

Man, I was such a huge Jericho mark in WCW and his early WWE run. He'll never drop off my all-time fave five but he is such a cringey combination of mild self-delusion and dad jokes now.

He wasn't on the show live, just a video promo.

Oh I've just watched that trailer - what a load of bullshit that is. Not even close to being funny.
25 years ago, the last WWF match to have a "big match feel to it, yall
Also the best promo in history. This makes me want to go pump iron and whatnot.

I would have put Curtis Axel on this list too but #AXELMANIA happened at just the right time to save his career.
I wouldn't have wasted Balor's WWE debut on the fucking Big Show
I bet we get a CJ Parker chant at the next NXT show though

I would buy a poster of this for sure.
This isn't me being hyperbolic. Does anyone like Chris Jericho in 2015?
Despite being a smark favorite back in the day, Jericho is the ultimate corporate kiss ass. While I've seen 'chosen one'/'face of the company' guys like Nash or Austin criticize the WWE in one manner or another, Jericho always seemingly nods and thinks 'good idea, boss!'
Every time he comes back it's to put somebody young over. This would be a good thing you might say. Not when it's obvious that's all he comes back to do. The intentions are good but the outcome does nothing for the other star and only hurts them. Instead of putting them over, a star with momentum usually ends up having it completely halted by a 1-2 month long feud that gives them nothing in the end because beating Jericho means nothing. A Jericho feud is a 2 month long squash match.
Hasn't been entertaining since 2010. And that's stretching it. 2009 at the absolute latest.
His dismissal of the Bill DeMott story by saying 'I had it worse.'
His music that is ridiculously lame even by 80s Metal Tribute band standards.
His phony as fuck podcast hosting.

Yes please.
Hornswaggle. That dude is still getting paid.
Jericho stretches himself too thin I think.
He's a great wrestler, but a mediocre rock star with a great band behind him and a mediocre podcaster with a built in fanbase to keep him going.....he's a decent author at least.
I wish he would focus on something though. Either podcasting on the Network (which will likely be better than his own podcasts) or wrestling. Drop all the extra stuff.

Nope. He's terrible and has been boring as shit for a while now. The thought of a Jericho return is always better than him actually showing up. I still like that entrance though.
