During a recent appearance on the Keepin' it 100 podcast, AEW star Chris Jericho discussed top WWE stars Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, and claimed they would be more over in AEW as the company does not force its talents to deliver scripted promos.

"I watched Survivor Series and it was really good," said Jericho. "But they had this promo with Daniel Bryan and Miz and it's like, for the sake of our children, our families, you have to stop The Fiend. Nobody talks like that.

"You know what I mean? You can still put the guy over big time but, not worry, like, what... is he's going to come to your house and break in your house and steal your kids... it's just not believable. And it's cartoonish in a bad way.

"If you had a guy like Roman Reigns in AEW, he would be so over. Roman is so legit, a real cool dude, man. He's a great guy. He's super cool. He's like the guy you want to hang out with.

"And you know, they never portray him like that on the show. They always give him these promos to read and the real Roman Reigns never really shines through."
