What now? Is Jericho winning?
What now? Is Jericho winning?
no
Why would he? NJPW would never let a guy who going to lose to Hangman Page, go over based Okada
It would unironically be dimes, but if jerigoat is as slowed down as people here were saying he was tonight, I don’t know how it’d be recieved.
no lol
He is still great in the ring honestly, its that the previous match was 4 guys flying in the ring for 30 min
there's no story in putting the title on hangman so soon, if you give it to jericho at least you have name recognition
This, and based Y2J can cut great promos, page is a shitter compared to him
No. But he'll probably beat Naito again before losing to Switchblade
What if AEW are giving the belt to Jericho?
I agree with you, but I still think they'll give to belt to their friend Page
Jericho/Jay is the dome match, they have 2 cards to fill. He wont face Naito again. Jay might win the briefcase, lose it to Naito straight away and go against Jericho. They HAVE to book a briefcase switch eventually.
AEW are working with DG and DDT. Why would NJPW give a fuck about how the AEW champion is perceived? If anything it would make them want to beat him for the one-up on AEW.
looking forward to seeing Okada do a different style of main event from a 40+ minute classic
>AEW are working with DG
Great collaboration right there...
I mean they did work it out. If it ended poorly you would probably know about it considering they still used the Stronghearts guys on the show, and CIMA actually seems to have an OK relationship with a lot of DG guys.
Who on earth wants to see that? No way that is a big enough match to main event one of the shows.
Jay is too "established" to lose the briefcase, what I am trying to say that you can give the prestige of winning G1 to anyone and then have them lose the briefcase, someone they want in the main event scene, but not at the tokyo dome, someone like ZSJ or SANADA, if Jay won noone would bite an eye at him going to the ME
it isnt going to main event either show? I just said it was the dome match, as in its Jerichos Dome match.
Ligers retirement match will probably end night 1 and night 2 will have the IC and hebbyq.
Put Jericho/Jay on the Night 1 undercard.
Jericho could be winning IF a NJPW/AEW partnership is happening
I feel if they do a briefcase switch it has to be the Babyface losing it to a heel. If Jay lost the briefcase, it would kill all his heat and momentum.
But if Sanada lost the briefcase, it could endear him more to the crowd
Jericho had several womeme tier botches today. Hopefully there won't be risky spots in the Okada match. I don't think the'yre going to give him the title, but they might do Jay vs Jericho. Liger will be the draw for the second night and they could put on something for the semi-main with Ibushi if Naito's not there
Page is clearly their pet-project, you don't immediately put the belt on him before building him up as a top guy. Jericho will be the Champion, then Kenny or Moxley, then it'll be Pages time.
You think New Japan would job their biggest star in his prime to a fat 50 year old? That doesn't sound like a good partnership to me
He unironically should.
Where does Okada go after retaining?
A defense against Naito at WK14?
B O R I N G.
>Jericho/Jay
Nah, I'd say Jericho/Tanahashi is your Tokyo Dome semi-main event along with Omega/Ibushi for the main event of 1.5
Jericho has a good relationship with New Japan and is clearly a draw for them inside and outside Japan, so yeah. Its not like Okada wouldn't be getting his win back.
I want Jericho to win, Naito to win G1, beat Jericho for the title at King of Pro Wrestling, and retain at the dome against Okada
Okada is not losing to Jericho
>Okada is not losing to Jericho
Pure Doubt.
Saved
Jericho will beat Okada
Jericho will beat Page
Double Champ Angle
>meanwhile
Ibushi vs Jericho finals of G1 but I don’t know if Jericho would be willing to compete in that many matches
if not, Ibushi still wins G1
Moxley beats Omega a couple times
Ibushi loses case to Okada
Ibushi still gets a chance at title, loses
>then
Jericho retirement angle
Jericho loses to Moxley at whatever the big AEW PPV is, retires from AEW, takes some sort of announcer or backstage position
Jericho loses to Okada at WK
>some defenses that would be cool in between this stuff
Tanahashi
Huwhito
why would that mean NJPW also puts their belt on him?
Well you ain't gonna get what you want you're going to get some GEDO booking
No but it's Okada so the match will be amazing and Jericho will somehow look even stronger after it.
At the same time it will put Omega over since he still the one Okada has to beat.
AEW wasnt kidding about long term booking.
1/2, 6
I don't think it makes sense winning giving him the belt and have him parade it around on a show of a company that isn't even working with the one you go the belt from
