Chris Jericho was a mainstay in WWE for a very long time and maintained a great relationship with them even when he was in a hiatus from the company. However, that time might have come and gone.
On the day Chris Jericho announced that he signed with AEW, WWE took his image out of their opening graphic. Now it looks like he is officially blackballed from WWE because Superstars aren’t even allowed to appear on his Talk Is Jericho podcast as Y2J explained on a recent episode.
>“I’ve talked with him a couple of times but I’m kind of public enemy number 1 there now. I’ve been kind of removed from the annals of history.”
>“I asked the other day if I could have a couple of their guys on my podcast to promote Mania and I was told ‘no, it’s not appropriate because you’re in AEW.’ I am banned from WWE.”
>“I know that they had to take some videos down from UpUpDownDown of me playing. They edited some stuff from the Edge and Christian Show that had my name on it.”
That's strange. Why don't they want to promote another promotion's employee?

Something about this seems very work-ish to me
Dylan White
Y2Gay is a self-marking old faggot, he was probably banned for being a cross-dressing homo
Daniel Lee
OH NO NO NO NO NO
LOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HEAD
Lucas Peterson
>he was probably banned for being a cross-dressing homo They literally employ Charles and Beko
Joseph Johnson
I unironically think he’s probably just making this shit up or at least stretching and sensationalizing the truth to bury wwe a little bit
Isaiah Baker
Vincetty SEETHING
Kayden Gray
Jericho can survive on his name alone in AEW. He will be fine.
Jacob Carter
WOW kinda like when Angle, Sting, Hogan, Nash, Dudleys, Booker T, Foley, RVD, Jeff Hardy, etc. worked for TNA.
This is unprecedented!
Nolan Torres
work
Henry Long
I unironically think that this is a long term plan by Vince to tank WWE before Hunter takes over, like when he dies his Twitter releases a video of him explaining it all and ending it with something super corny like "I beat the game, you sonovabitch!"
Noah Clark
Look at the things he's talking about yourself you FUCKING IDIOT
Jacob Miller
Ha, memes!
Camden Davis
Uh, how? This is how Vince acts, and how he has always acted.
Luke Adams

Aaron Morgan
Worked
Josiah Cook
Lol WWE is shook.
Erasing Jericho. WWE Historical Unified Champion as if he is Chris Benoit. WWE is so pathetic
Charles Ross
Vince doesn't hold grudges and the history proves it. This is probably Gaytch's well-known pettiness and autism.
Brody Barnes
i dont watch UUDD but I like the vidya what was he playin on there?
Jericho is retarded because all of his videos are still up on UUDD. Same with PAC. It's just him trying to rally his base since no one cares about AEW anymore.
No one wants to listen to his shitty podcast unless he has a wwe guy on
Go interview jungle boy about his dead dad you fucking hack
Josiah James
I hope he does some shoots now. Not that he needs the money, but just to be a spiteful cunt.
JeriGOAT's been around for a long time, he probably knows everyone's dirty laundry including the McMahons.
Ryder Allen
you do realize he has more than just wwe guys on his show regularly right?
Brody Turner
woah you guyse certainly know how to run a million dollar business. Is this Reddit?
Grayson Morris
We don't need a 5th midlife crisis run.
Adrian Flores
He won't do it. Even through it all he regards himself as a friend of Vince and has been careful about burning bridges regardless of who it is. Even Hunter who he says he buried the hatchet with and has had on his podcast before.
Evan Foster
You can only do so many shows with omega or cody before people stop giving a fuck
Ryder Roberts
what even is this
Jack Sullivan
Bullshit, just google WWE Y2J and there's a lot of footage on their official pages.
Jackson Thomas
Steiner either in shoot or character has talked so much crap about Triple H, Steph and Flair that he worked them into putting him on their arena ban list.
Joseph Morris
This is so stupid and carny. Imagine if movie studios did this. >hurr Ryan Reynolds is Deadpool now so let's take down everything he did as Green Lantern
Easton Bailey
Steiner is the most based wrestler in history.
Justin Hughes
except he was banned because of Hogan, but don't let that get in the way of your muh HHH bogyman
Aiden Allen
Am i the only one who noticed the guy holding the light at the distance?

has to be a work, surely Vince isn’t THAT autistic
Carter Stewart
Jericho will be AEWs go-to nickelman. "When we need a few nickeks, we know we can count on our bloated buddy Christian P. Jericho."
Andrew Collins
FUCKING BASED!! VINCE PLEASE SHIT IN MY MOUTH SOME MORE.. YOU ARE A GOD.
yea that's not what we're talking about though we're talking about doing a podcast after hours with "independent contractors" who work for WWE and the WWE gets to continue making money off of Jericho on the Network
Christopher Edwards
so no you don't actually listen then, gotcha
Xavier Taylor
yeah that's not how the TV or Entertainment business work, if you are a singer, you don't get to collaborate with another artist not in your label especially not without the label's approval. You don't appear on radio shows without getting approved by the label. You are using the term "independent contractors" without knowing what it actually encompassed.
Austin Perez
I'm right there with ya brother
Cameron Jenkins
Hi Paul!
Carson Taylor
"If you see this man, DO NOT let him in the arena."
Liam Gutierrez
>ban fat self mark who can't wrestle and literally leaks everything that goes on behind the scenes in WWE Oh no, how sad!!!!
Austin Reed
No one listens to his podcast when his guest isn't wrestling related
Chase Howard
Thinking old things are for old people is how you get nuWWE fans.
Parker Morgan
Vince never forget that Jericho was WCW guy.
Joshua Smith
he's been putting on 5 star matches outside of WWE y'know, like everyone does before WWE puts the training wheels on them
It's funny to watch smarks shit themselves over shit that means effectively nothing. AEW will live or die and they'll drag in Jericho for a cheap pop whenever he becomes available.
Hudson Morgan
It's a shame, but that's the price you pay for signing with the indie flavor of the month.
Hunter Smith
>Laugh at this post >Realise there's no AEW events on Wrestlemania Weekend
exactly, who the hell wants to listen to his """"fish expert"""" son (who has NO CREDENTIALS) or the bass player that stepped in to play a shot for Metallica 9 years ago.
Lincoln Brown
Fuck em
Logan Carter
>Vincetty get this mad for a fake sport cringe
Elijah Foster
Good im glad he is banned, not only did he betrayed the company that made him famous and rich, he also betrayed us the fans. F jericho and F aew. Loyalty is important in our business but for jericho money is more important F him
Brandon Bell
>AEW is just another Invasion and its starting at Mania
>leak stuff to Meltzer for 20 years >he still won't give you a five star match rating >have to run to Japan and get carried by Meltzer's crushes before he can give you a precious ***** rating that you've been so obsessing about for the last 15 years of your career
I thought Jericho wasn't a mark?
Jeremiah Campbell
Its HHH not vince
Kevin King
We are always reminded just why Jericho couldn't sit with the cool kids in WCW.
Bentley Baker
Jericho is at the point where he doesn't need to suck the WWE's cock to earn money. His cruise was popular enough to drew a crowd. Whether it due any revenue to pay for the expenses and pull a profit is a different story.
Regardless, let Jericho mess around in AEW and other companies for a few years. He'll eventually announce his retirement and be welcomed back like Angle was. Vince cannot say no to money. He welcomed Bret back after years of hatred.
Jericho gives more of a shit about his rock band these day anyway. He can just coast off that and his podcast and e will still stay popular enough to float around big feds outside of WWE without a care.
Lucas Morales
But when you're a singer or actor you get a share of the money from your song forever.... Wrestlers not named Hulk Hogan don't get that.
Gabriel Peterson
I truly hope not because Fozzy can't draw flies to shit, even in Canada.
Mason Lewis
Yep. While I think that his band produces shitty metal or hard rock. It draws in fans and is popular enough that they get invited to venues around the globe.
I haven't listened to his podcast in years as his interviewing style annoys me. Almost as bad as Edge where everything turns back into getting himself over.
Kevin Thomas
Everything Chris has done lately is to promote the Boomer Boat he has. Fozzy had one hit with their new album, but it's already dead and buried into obscurity.
Jeremiah Sullivan
>so let's take down everything he did as Green Lantern They should do that anyway, but not because of Reynolds.
Gavin Jenkins
Just because his band jlis shit doesn't mean he gives less of a shit about it. He clearly cares more about other stuff than wrestling otherwise he wouldn't have gotten so fat.
Cameron Walker
I just listened to his episode in the Mandella Effect.
Which you wouldn't care about cause you're too young to remember shit ya lil zoomer cuck, I just BTFO you my man.
Jaxson Cox
It happens all the time in Hollywood. Have you not heard of a blacklist? And not just during the McCarthy days: right now they're pulling Michael Jackson media from circulation because of baseless accusations from two proven liars.
Andrew Carter
Hey Paris!
Jayden Perry
>it’s not appropriate because you’re in AEW
That makes complete sense. You never saw Vince promoting wrestlers from other promotions that WWF/E didn't have a working relationship with at any other time in the past. Pretty common WWE policy that's been in effect for years.
It actually sounds like Jericho is the one that's fucking bitter cause he can't use the WWE to push his podcast or his non-WWE career anymore.
>Vince cannot say no to money. He welcomed Bret back after years of hatred.
That was always Bret not Vince. Vince would have brought him back as soon as his WCW contract ended. Bret though couldn't wrestle due to his health plus Bret still hated Vince over Montreal and even moreso Owen's death. It took Bret to bury the hatchet to bring him back.
