D-Von Dudley.
Oh shit, why didn't you say so? Are the Dudleys still putting guys through tables?

They actually broke up. D-Von's a generic face while Bubba is doing pretty well as a heel on his own.
Well, I'll be. Good for them. Maybe one day they can find themselves out of the indies and back on TV.
Did he change his username? What the fuck?!
Jericho news is hilarious. I just hope he's not off television for too long.

They're far better off wrestling in the indies (TNA).
In WWE, they'd just be cowardly jobbers on the level of the Usos occasionally fighting over giant penny belts that no one cares about.
Also, tables are no longer PG.
Bubba's doing far more for his legacy in TNA right now than Jericho did with his cup of coffee with the WWE prior to Brazilgate where he lost the most consecutive number of title matches on PPV since the heyday of face Batista and had an outright embarassing feud with CM Drunk. He's better off touring with Fozzy or trying to host another game show.
You know he came back to to put over Punk right? His wins or loses mean nothing for his legacy maybe for you but for most don't think that.
He will be back and I fear for Chael Sonnen when he goes to Brazil.
Hey, I don't doubt it. Good for them.

He sucked at putting Punk over.
Putting Punk over doesn't mean a thing if you're not built up as a threat to Punk.
Jericho never was.
Jericho put Heath Slater over in NXT. What did that do for Heath Slater? Did it mean anything?
Jericho put Evan Bourne over in a string of unhyped matches on RAW? What did that do for Evan Bourne? Did it mean anything?
NO.
If you want a textbook example of how to come back and put a guy over, look at Lance Storm's feud with Mike Bennett in Ring of Honor.
That is how you come back to put a guy over and have it MEAN something.
They were OK. Given the stature of the two men involved, I'd argue they were disappointing and didn't live up to expectations. The fact that Daniel Bryan vs. CM Punk have easily put every Punk/Y2J match to shame without trying at every opportunity should tell you plenty.
They did a table match at extreme rules and Cody got thrown into one so they are PG. Also, some people actually liked the Jerico and Punk feud and also again he came back to put over Punk.
His matches with Punk were very good.
His lose to Slater was not meant to put him over and the Evan Bourne thing was meant too but its not all up to him to put over people to make stars. Thats up the WWE to put him over more to make him winning over Jericho mean something.

Ply. Greatest response I have seen in a long long time.
Isn't wrestling awesome!? No one ever knows what is really going on.
G-fex?
G-fex is dead my friend.
You can call me KOG....
and as you can see...I'm a lot happier.
Am I supposed to be impressed?
Cena already did the same but with Edge and fucking Big Show.
Why is that guy holding on? If he lets go, he can drop down and not get hurt by Mr Dolphin.

Fixed.Jamaica me crazy!
Everything about Jericho's return aside from his matches has generally been disappointing. The way he cycled through different styles of returns was hilarious, but never really paid off with anything big (in the ring at least, we got dozens of .gifs from it). The hints he dropped in interviews he held before his return about other wrestlers copying his style seemed like he would come back to claim what was his, and pitting him against Punk - who had the "indignant performer full of righteous anger" pegged - seemed like the build to a great feud. Then we got the C.M. Drunk Saga. I don't even know what he would have done before this fake suspension, but I don't expect anything impressive to come out of it. I think that my expectations were measured, and in the end I feel that Jericho's return failed to meet them.
It's a shame, too, because his in-ring segments with Punk still probably qualify as the best comedy bits that the WWE's aired all year :/
You will bow to me DM and call me Lord KOG.
I like this one better.
No wonder I couldn't find it. He was getting the GoToSleep and not the AA.
Cena has been around so long I'm re-writing WWE history in my mind.
only if viewership really lowers during my segments here.
yup you got it *high five*

I know you're joking, but he's been called "American Dragon" in WWE before. Both Josh and Matt referred to him as the American Dragon in his early days with the fed. And he was called Brian Danielson after he was "fired" from NXT and came back too.

KOG = Kids Over Girls
Oh, I see.
Oh, I see.
That's why I loved Matt Striker on commentary. He would always slide in small references to a wrestler/diva's past.
Guys...guys....remember when G-Fex posted here?

Isn't that why he doesn't really announce anymore though? That and he marked out for Booker T?
It's not what I do that defies me, it's who I am...
whatever the fuck they say in that movie. Who remembers, lol
That would get you arrested in Brazil apparently.
Josh and Matt don't count, only the experts King and Cole matter. And if you're not playing Booker bingo that night he doesn't count either.

Not making sense is one of the trademarks of WWE Management.
Seriously though, it seems like a work to be because of the whole interview they put up on the main site. They don't usually make big interviews on there when they suspend people or let people go; that gives me the impression that they want some buzz to form around this story.
Or they could have just changed their mind on a whim and suspended him to dodge some criticism, I really don't know, I don't understand the company anymore.
"Hmmmmmmmm"
Looks like the pharaoh's heading for a premature burial.
I see no cops here, unless they arrived a moment later after the start of the match lol
