I apologize in advance for posting this thread here, but I am doing so because it is relevant to past events and also...I know that my fellow Historians here can discuss and digest certain aspects of the sport better than some in the current thread section.
That being said, I was not surprised at the manner in which Jericho returned last night. As a huge Y2J fan, I have read his books (great reads BTW) and he has said on more than occasion that he always wants to come back in a better, more original fashion. He has made it a point to state that he has to improve and be original when he creates a new gimmick, returns from hiatus etc. He has also stated that when it's his time to go, he will so without celebration..a statement that makes me repsect him all the more.
I love the fact that he works the IWC..I love the fact that he makes me wonder about when he is shooting and when he is working...a talent most lack these days.
Knowing that he was coming to WWE back in the day as well as his return to "Save Us" a few years back, I have to say I was still giddy and marking out like a fan should.
This isn't the place to discuss his current storyline return, but I am not surprised in the least in how he came back. It totally fits Y2J's character.
How many more years do you see CJ having?
Do you feel he can still be a relavant player today and in the foreseeable future?
I think Jericho has paved the way for many of todays Heels and has been copied by many. Providing his heath holds up and he can maintain the right physique, I think he can go another 3 years or so as a Main Event player in the same capacity HBK did.
Thoughts?
