Jericho was the best thing about Raw last year.
We believe that he’ll be the best thing about SmackDown Live this year when he returns after touring with his heavy metal band Fozzy. Although he was only part of the show for two hours, Chris Jericho saved an atrocious show from being an absolute disaster on his way out.
Not only did he start the show off on a good note (accompanied by AJ Styles and Kevin Owens), he had a hilarious backstage segment with ‘Ronnie’ Young and the weeping Aiden English.

He had a great main event match, dropped the US Championship to Kevin Owens on the way out and also made him look like an absolute Superstar inside the squared circle. We await patiently for Jericho to return from tour and be a top player on SmackDown.
Take note, part-timers. Even at his age, Jericho is going at a million miles per hour. Best of luck with your music, Y2J.
