One of the great things about AEW is its entertaining promos, and Chris Jericho always seems to be at the center of it. When AEW Dynamite began, it was clear that Cody Rhodes would be the #1 contender for Jericho's title. Thus, the feud started with The Elite and Inner Circle clashing in the storyline.

Before Jericho took on Cody Rhodes at Full Gear, AEW aired Cody's serious video package preparing for his world title opportunity. A week later, Jericho and The Inner Circle would parody it and even enlisting Virgil to mock DDP.

Now presenting, the greatest video package in wrestling history 😂🤣#AEWDynamiteDon't miss Full Gear THIS SATURDAY on @brlive pic.twitter.com/UAxSStj7hG

Chris Jericho's current run in AEW has been entertaining and never seems to have a dull moment, whether he's doing commentary, cutting promos, or even in-ring work. His work has been outstanding, and the results are showing for the company.

#4 Chris Jericho becomes WWE Undisputed Champion

While Chris Jericho's run as WWE Undisputed Champion was forgettable, it's still one of his career's high points. He defeated both The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin on the same night and solidified himself as a main-event player. But it was a blessing and a curse as it's probably true that WWE looked at him as a place holder as he would drop the title to Triple H at WrestleMania 18.

Jericho found out about his win, hours before the show at catering via Vince McMahon's conversation with The Undertaker. He said:

“You know how I found out I was going to become the first ever Undisputed Champion? You know how? Hmm? I was in catering and I was sitting there, minding my own beeswax, eating my food and right over here was Vince McMahon and The Undertaker. And Vince starting talking loudly where he knew I could hear him but he wasn’t talking to me and he said ‘hey Taker! You know how you know the business is going down the toilet?’ ‘How Vince?’ ‘Well we’re putting the belt on Jericho! PWAH!’ Is there another Jericho? And that’s how I found out. Literally hours before the show with a thinly veiled insult.”

While WWE never gave Chris Jericho enough credit at the time, his becoming the first-ever Undisputed Champion is still etched in the halls of WWE History.
