Matt Young 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2005 I was just thinking random thoughts about WWE. I was thinking of how I'd like to see Chris Jericho on Smackdown to wrestle Juventud... then it dawned on me. Smackdown's World Champ, Batista, is out, and all signs point to Randy Orton (also recently added to the Survivor Series team) taking the title off him. However, since Batista will obviously be writtenout of the SS match and SD could use another good worker, is there any chance that Jericho could make a comeback? He'd be an awesome surprise replacement for Batista and could help fill some of the void left by Smackdown losing its 2 biggest faces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
areacode212 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2005 From this interview, it doesn't sound like Jericho will be back in wrestling anytime soon. He's not under contract (that extension only lasted through SummerSlam), and he's been wanting to concentrate on acting/music for a while now. I can see him coming back someday, but definitely not this soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2005 The guy's barely even been gone 3 months. At least give it a full year before begging his return. Quite frankly, if he's not going back to his WCWish shtick, I wouldn't be all that interested in seeing him again anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2005 What good does that do? One night doesn't solve the problem, just points out to the fans how bad the problem is. Jericho doesn't want to come back. They'll just have to push JBL back into the mix with Crippler. Smackdown is hurting but it'll recover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2005 Jericho is still on VH1 best week ever every week (and was also on "I love the holidays") and is now listed on the screen as "actor/musician" interesting I wish our hero and paragon of virtue would come back, but I dont blame him for staying away.

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted November 27, 2005 Batista is sticking around. He's going to gut out the injury and keep working. Not that bringing Jericho back couldn't hurt, but it wouldn't solve the underlying problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
