Chris Jericho had a rough night on AEW Collision, and the fans made their intentions clear and asked him to retire. This might come as a big blow to the former WWE man.
Jericho was involved in the main event on Collision as he took on one-half of FTR, Dax Harwood. The match was okay up until the end when the Learning Tree was involved in what looked like a major botch.
It was confusing at first, as Jericho first took out the referee with a thumb to the eye. Then, he used the belt to take out his opponent. He later hit an elbow to get the win, but the damage had been done. Fans caught wind of this and went to Twitter to call him out and ask him to retire.
One fan said that what happened was embarrassing for the stature of Chris Jericho, and another wrote that it had ruined his legacy.
Jim Cornette mocks Chris Jericho after botch on AEW Collision
Chris Jericho’s embarrassing spot against Dax Harwood on AEW Collision has caught the ire of not only the fans but also a very outspoken wrestling pundit. That is none other than Jim Cornette.
Cornette is someone who does not think twice when it comes to giving his opinion, and he did just that after the former WWE star botched his finish against Dax Harwood. Taking to Twitter, Jim Cornette wrote:
“Can someone with experience in pro wrestling tell ME what was supposed to be going on here????”
It was a very embarrassing spot indeed, and it will be interesting to see if it will be brought up in the future. Jericho has a lot of enemies in the company right now, and they will be rubbing their hands to make sure that this does not go unnoticed.
