Jericho Gone From DWTS.....

by Guest Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:08 am

Chris Jericho was eliminated from DWTS last night.

What do you think this will mean in terms of his return to the WWE? Could he perhaps join Smackdown as the top heel, setting up feuds with Orton and Christian?

by Dx Dan. Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:12 am

Quality!, been waiting for this to happen.
I guess we'll see you within 2 months Jericho Very Happy

by theundisputedY2D2 Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:14 am

Think that's the most likely scenario now KB, he's obviously got a ready made feud with Orton and there's history with Christian - if they choose to use it, which they probably won't.

by Adam D Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:21 am

How did Jericho leave WWE (I genuinely cant remember)?

If he was fired, why was he in the draft?

by Dx Dan. Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:23 am

No he wasn't fired Hobo, he just got punted in the skull by Orton.

by uberkiwi Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:41 am

Wont he be tied up with the DWTS tours before returning? (Assuming, thats what they seemed to do here in the UK).

by Dx Dan. Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:46 am

I hope not Uberkiwi Sad

by uberkiwi Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:53 am

Unless he got it written out of his DWTS contract, Id suspect itll be another 6 months+

by Guest Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:55 am

Its not the same in the States as it is over here.

by Dx Dan. Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:55 am

Lets hope its not in his contract then! Sad

Hope so mate, wasnt speaking from experience (honest!) I only know they do a tour here from what Comedy Dave on R1 said.

by Kay Fabe Wed 27 Apr 2011, 4:09 pm

Jericho said he'll be back when he gets voted off, I hope he comes back as the Y2J heel if he is a heel

by Liam_Main Wed 27 Apr 2011, 4:37 pm

I prefer Jericho as a face but with Randy and Christian the main babyfaces he'll likely return as a heel.Anyone know when hes likely to return?

by Mr H Wed 27 Apr 2011, 5:02 pm

There is a massive void on Smackdown for a top heel with a big arrow above it saying 'Chris Jericho Goes Here'.

Jericho v Christian
Jericho v Orton
Jericho v Bryan

Any of them will be just fine. Thanks.

by Dx Dan. Wed 27 Apr 2011, 8:38 pm

But surely he'll come back as a face H?
I think they should turn Orton heel again, then have a face Jericho return for his revenge on him!

by Chuck Norris Wed 27 Apr 2011, 8:57 pm

Jericho return as a heel would be perfect.

Have him come back feud with Orton, then keep him heel & we have a potential year of great feuds.

Christian
Sin Cara
Daniel Bryan
Sheamus (Face/Heel)

by Bull Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:03 pm

yeah have Orton turn heel once he win the WHC and then return Y2J as a face after being punted by Orton and say he wants revenge and throw Christain in the Mix to as a face

by theundisputedY2D2 Thu 28 Apr 2011, 9:38 am

Jericho's teasing that he'll be at Extreme Rules on Sunday.

by Guest Thu 28 Apr 2011, 9:42 am

He is indeed. Can't see how it would work though after Henry assaulting Christian?

by **ADMIN** Thu 28 Apr 2011, 9:51 am

Agree with Gaffer, the last catchphrase void heel persona had run its course so if he was to return as a heel I'd go with someone who thinks he's bigger than wwe as shown by his appearance on dwts. A Hollywood Jericho so to speak.

Would you have him come after Orton?

by **ADMIN** Thu 28 Apr 2011, 9:55 am

It'd be hard to avoid it, I'd prefer him v Christian or to help get Daniel Bryan over though.

by Guest Thu 28 Apr 2011, 10:01 am

It would be more logical to go after Orton, then Bryan, then Christian.

by bernard black Thu 28 Apr 2011, 10:42 am

He'll probably come back and help put over Orton as the major face of Smackdown.

by theundisputedY2D2 Thu 28 Apr 2011, 11:12 am

Hollywood Jericho would be epic, he'd need to get himself a palm pilot though; KA-KOW!

Randy Orton is the obvious choice for Jericho to go after, there's a ready made feud there and it looks like Christian (the other option) is going to be tied up with the World's Sweatiest Man Mark Henry after Extreme Rules.

If he's available, I'd have Jericho run in at the end of the Last Man Standing match this Sunday and cost Orton the victory. It doesn't matter if he disappears for a few weeks/months after that (to get into ring shape) they could do some vignettes where Jericho's swanning off around Hollywood but telling Orton that he'll see him soon. In the meantime Randy can go around doing run-ins on everybody until he gets what he wants i.e. a match with Chris Jericho. They could even try holding it off until Summerslam to make it into a bigger deal.

by Guest Thu 28 Apr 2011, 11:18 am

I love it. They could have The Network.......oh, wait a minute.

by Davie Thu 28 Apr 2011, 11:23 am

I've no real interest in wrestling but this story has been tweeted a lot recently by Jericho's big mate and one of my favourite musicians, Mike Portnoy (ex-Dream Theater Drummer)

I had to look up what he was tweeting about when I saw it!

by Mr H Thu 28 Apr 2011, 12:15 pm

Was shocked when Portnoy left DT, was looking forward to seeing him at High Voltage this year!

by Kay Fabe Thu 28 Apr 2011, 12:21 pm

Maccs take a Bow, "Hollywood Jericho" type character would blow the roof off the place

Sorry to hijack the thread - but he's awesome

by Mr H Thu 28 Apr 2011, 12:26 pm

Nearly as awesome as Jason Bonham!

For the love of God Maccs don't agree with me Stallin will delete you

by The Awesome Giz Thu 28 Apr 2011, 1:37 pm

Jericho did tweet the other day, "I wonder what to do this weekend, I hear somethings happening in Tampa" or something along those lines.

Don't worry, we believe you Wink

Haven't seen anything in the press about a DWTS tour - and he might be able to combine the two perhaps?

by theundisputedY2D2 Thu 28 Apr 2011, 6:20 pm

Well Jericho himself said that as soon as he was out of DWTS he was returning to WWE but you'd think he'd take a few weeks at least between the two.

by **ADMIN** Thu 28 Apr 2011, 9:41 pm

What I can see happening is that he makes a couple of non wrestling appearances first (with Extreme Rules a big possibility) before a return in a couple of months.
I know I'd mark out royally if when RAW airs on Monday night with the Rock in the ring celebrating his birthday the titantron starts to countdown...

by Kay Fabe Thu 28 Apr 2011, 9:48 pm

That wovld be fantastic, i totally get why he dropped the countdown but I hope it returns, also interrupting Rock would be a great way to kick off 'Hollywood Jericho'

The parallels to his first WWF/E appearance is surely too great for even the 'E to miss?...

by theundisputedY2D2 Fri 29 Apr 2011, 10:35 am

Jericho and The Rock should team up and call themselves the Hollywood Blondes...........oh wait.
