    Jericho, specifically in this new gimmick, draws no money, draws no ratings. Being “over” with the AEW audience is like a Mother being their Sons biggest fan. Means nothing

      @MazeBlurs90 Exactly!!! 💯 It's like the kayfabe, Chris Jericho from 98 WCW, chatacter was creating a paradody character for parody wrestling! Wrestling fans are his Dean Malenko, every buzzworthy wrestler is his Guerrera unmasking, and AEW marks are his Ralphus.
      This dude is competing with Flair for biggest embarrassment to their own name. One day he'll brag that he beat Flair and Vince in the same night 😂

    The Learning Tree gimmick is borrowed from:
    - Christian's mentorship gimmick
    -Young Buck's "heels who think they're faces" gimmick
    - Roderick Strong's yelling
    - Bray Wyatts "Fun House" without the puppets

That what heels do, so he is doing his job you fans are giving him a reaction! When everyone decides to stop reacting to anything he does then he will either change up and fans still need to continue not reacting then maybe we get lucky and leave although I believe his contract is for a few more years shit sit him in commentary til the end I guess! Yet he gets himself over but doesn’t want to tell TK how to run the company to make the product better well eventually the well will run dry then what?? Maybe just maybe he should be help TK run AEW to help the product some since he knows how to deal with a crowd one way or another
