Chris Jericho noticed the tweet, and decided to respond to the fans who body-shamed him. The pro-wrestling legend stated that he could perform more pushups, squats, and sit-ups than all of the trolls that targeted him. Check out the tweets targeting Jericho HERE, and response below:
Awwww they are? Well either way, I guarantee I can do more timed pushups, weighted squats and incline sit-ups than all of them AND still draw record ratings. I have a really thick skin, kids.... 😘 #LeChampionhttps://t.co/0pnHQ2NSDa
Chris Jericho will go down in wrestling history as one of the very best
Chris Jericho recently completed 30 years in pro-wrestling. He has wrestled all over the world, and in some of the biggest promotions in the industry, including WWE, WCW, and NJPW. He is currently 50-years-old, and is still going strong in All Elite Wrestling.
Jericho is still one of the most relevant names in pro-wrestling, and did an incredible job as AEW's first-ever World Champion. Jericho has been the target of body-shaming trolls for a while now, but he has proven time and again that he is still capable of producing quality matches at his age.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
