Chris Jericho is arguably the most prolific professional wrestler on AEW’s roster. The fanbase even sings his entrance theme word by word, which is a rare instance in the modern-day. He is regarded as the biggest superstar of the modern era and might retire as one of the greatest of all times.

Jericho saw an unprecedented rise in professional wrestling during the attitude era. His savage mic skills and impressive in-ring ability quickly propelled him as one of the marquee names.

On tonight’s special Saturday night, AEW Dynamite fans got to witness the old-school Jericho who once berated Stephanie McMahon, but only this time MMA fighter Paige VanZant and ATT (American Top Team) members were on the receiving end.
