Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Report post Posted January 4, 2004 Here's the easiest way to get Jericho really over at the Rumble: Have him toss a bunch of heels and stay in a while before getting unfairly tossed. Unimaginitive? I prefer to think of it as tried-and-true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack_Bauer 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2004 It's also logical, and WWE don't seem to do that anymore. They'll end up sticking TRISH in the Rumble or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricMM 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2004 It wouldn't be suprising. That way they would have Christian eliminated by Trish, then he'd fume at ringside until someone eliminated Trish. At which point he'd grab her and and stalk her or grab a chair or something. Chris would be on the top rope with someone (randy orton prolly) all woozy in the ring and ready to give him a dropkick from the top, when he notices Trish getting backed into a corner, so he planchas Xian instead.

Thinking about it, that would be GREAT. The only negative is that Jericho would be out, but no-one expects him to win anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo Effect 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2004 Let's not forget about Heavy Metal, Cibernitico, or one the Lucha Libre fuckers in the 1996 (?) Royal Rumble, as he did a top rope move onto a few of his friends that were eliminated. That was counted as eliminating yourself, and the announcers pretty much said he was idiot from what I remember. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mil Mascaras did a top rope cross body to the floor onto Pierroth and Cibernetico in the 1997 Rumble because M.M apparently didn't want to lose heat (he had none by judging his entrance) so he wanted to be booked to eliminate himself by mistake. See also: Sabu in 1996, except WWF decided not to bring him in for it afterall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Your Olympic Hero Report post Posted January 5, 2004 Have the Rumble come down to the final 4, who have a standoff....say, Jericho, Benoit, Angle, and Kane... Have Christian (who was tossed by Jericho earlier) slide back in and crack Jericho in the back with a chair while the other 2 work on Kane. Trish runs down, finally seeing that Christian was the true asshole all along and attempts to save Jericho, but Christian knocks her off the apron to the floor. Christian has Trish staggered on the floor, and is about to crack her in the head with a chairshot. Jericho sees this, and also sees the 3 last guys all teetering on the rop rope, as they try to eliminate Kane...What does he do? He jumps over the top rope and saves Trish! Sacrificing his WM Main Event to save the girl he loves, and kick Christian's ass. It kinda kills the spirit of Wrestlemania XX... being that close to eliminating the last 3 and winning the Rumble and getting to be in the biggest match of the year and the main event of the biggest event ever... just to save a girl from a chairshot. This isn't a soap opera and it isn't the 80's wrestling anymore, a chairshot doesn't mean death like it used to anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you joking? Fans would hate him MORE if he DIDN'T eliminate Orton. I say the WWE just swerves us and has Jericho nail Trish with the chair instead of Christian and call her a heartless frigid bitch. Who would see that coming?? The company has ignored storylines before so why start following one now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2004 Jericho's had the world title and main evented wrestlemania...he's never fixed things with Trish, which, judging from his x-mas present attempt, he's even MORE desperate to do. What good is a main event if the girl ya love can't cheer for you... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2004 BTW. face Jericho would rock. We'd get killer promos bashing the untalented RAW heels, such as Christian, Orton, Batista, etc...and lots of people he's never feuded with (the above 3) and maybe some new battles with Triple H, Kane, etc. Jericho's best WWE work was in 2000, (and continuing into 2001) when he turned face, by the way. Forget that not. A new character may be a small step in fixing Raw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
