As we noted, All Elite Wrestling continues to overexpose one of the legends signed to their promotion to the point that fans have seemingly turned on him all the way, showering him with chants of "Please, retire!" and "Go home Chris". Jericho who is now 53 years old and has seemingly slowed down a considerable bit since signing with AEW in 2019 is going to march on though as if things aren't happening the way they are.
Jericho faced off with Taz's son HOOK on last Sunday's AEW Dynasty pay-per-view and was only the 2nd man to have defeated HOOK in a match since the son of the Orange and Black little man debuted in AEW in 2020 (making his official in ring debut a year later after being introduced through backstage segments involving other members of his fathers stable Team Taz).
Word going around is that HOOK could be leaving to pursue a career in the WWE and that would answer as to why he lost the title to Jericho, however, Jericho probably wasn't the best idea for a person to end the title reign that HOOK had been having since August of last year. Fans as of late have seemingly all but a couple left have turned on Jericho. Is this something that is justified? Jericho has over exposed himself and fans main gripe with Jericho has been, despite the appearance that everyone he has worked with "becoming better in the end for having worked with Jericho", it is actually quite the opposite. With fans calling Jericho's rivalries in AEW as being part of the "Jericho Vortex", a term that has even recently been brought up on live television by Jericho and HOOK.
This is my opinion but it is now time for Jericho to do what he has done in the past, several times over. It's time for him to reinvent himself to stay relevant. That or continue to hang on like he has and continue to tarnish his own legacy.
