Chris Jericho is a recognized rock musician when you search for him on the internet, but that doesn’t mean that fans like that part of his life. The wrestler showcased his musical prowess live at AEW All In 2024 and we can claim that it wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea. The former WWE star couldn’t defend himself against the backlash that he faced after his entrance.
Instead of walking down the ramp with music playing in the background as usual, the AEW superstar decided to do something different for the fans at the biggest PPV of the company. It turns out that fans watching the show online were not happy with it.
The 53-year-old isn’t the only wrestler who had a live entrance on August 25th in Wembley. However, it is the dislike that fans have for the band Fozzy and Jericho’s singing that garnered the spotlight.

The heavy metal band was all set outside backstage with their full musical gear to perform in front of a mighty crowd. Chris Jericho grabbed the mic and sang his way down to the squared circle. He tried hyping everyone up while singing ‘Judas’ but the magic didn’t work according to the internet.
Even before he got to finish the song, fans were lightning fast in generating new responses on ‘X’ and lashing out at Chris Jericho for making them listen to his music along with a full Fozzy concert during a wrestling event.
What’s your perspective on:
Is Chris Jericho better off sticking to wrestling rather than singing with Fozzy?

Chris Jericho musical ability did not shine bright in London
The FTW Championship was on the line during the match and the wrestling veteran displayed his confidence by singing his way to the ring. However, Hook got the best of him with some external interference as well. Even before he was pinned, fans displayed no mercy to Jericho. Someone tried giving the wrestling veteran some advice on what he should be doing instead of a live concert.
Oh do one Jericho, you can’t sing live. Please stop forcing Fozzy on audiences #AEWAllIn pic.twitter.com/wwTKhWU2mk

Here we have some direct heat for the heavy metal band. Irrespective of whether Chris Jericho was singing along with them or not, it feels like the fan perspective on Fozzy might remain unchanging.
Fozzy sucks #AEWAllIn

There is one more viewer who did not like seeing Fozzy on their screens as part of the event in Wembley. Although some people might have gotten hyped for the match that came after this live theme entrance, it’s not something that most of the fanbase would want to remember.
I’m sure no one asked for a Fozzy concert 🙄😒 #AEWAllInLondon

This is a hilarious story to write on a public social media platform. A fan shared how the person that they hate the most in the world broke their neck but they still wouldn’t wish for them to sit through a concert that they had to do while trying to enjoy some decent wrestling.
Wouldn’t wish a Fozzy concert on my worst enemy, and my worst enemy literally broke my fucking neck. #AEWAllIn

One more reaction that justifies what people of the internet wrestling community are thinking about is the footage live from Wembley Stadium. Although the ratings and fan reviews for the PPV are yet to come out, the concert with Chris Jericho singing in it could very well affect it negatively.
Ain’t nobody trying to hear Fozzy #AEW
