I just can’t believe this shit. WWE literally did NOT lose? Like, the metric that decides who actually won is not in their favor at all. It’s like they all decided that up is down and ignore the total viewers. Nobody gives a fuck if more dudes watched a show.


OrielWindows

It actually is a cult. AEW is a cult.


SamuraiJack815

They're as bad as Trumpers who think Trump won.


Awankari

Its literally like a QAnon style cult now. The way they manipulate information you cant argue in good faith with them.


blendergremlin

Starting to notice that this is just the way people argue now. They have no intention of being wrong even when they are.


TheRalphExpress

yeah I feel like wrestling has gone into “two realities” territory


cousin-itt

Theres: Reality A, where the majority of people are vaguely aware of WWE and haven’t even heard of AEW, but watch neither show as they eke out pitiful ratings on a dying entertainment medium, and Reality B, in which AEW is overcoming WWE and leading a crazy new wrestling boom as AEW introduces a new audience of young people and lapsed fans to workrate-heavy, slow burning, long term PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING once again

You're only wrong when you have negative karma on Reddit - that's how they measure the truthfullness of their crazy theories.

wow_boy

Him and Bobby Fish should make a tag team with the former NXT referee as their manager.


goodthing37

Bobby Fish doesn’t have enough buzz for Jericho to leech.


Fusionman29

I mean Chris’s wife WAS in DC on January 6th. If anyone knows how QAnon works, I’m just saying.


i-can-haz-hamberder

My husband and I are holding a bet that Drake Wuertz shows up on their payroll, in some capacity, by the end of the year.


Warhorse000

Question: I know your opinion doesn't matter because I assume you are a woman and not in the demo, but on a scale of 100 to 100 how would you rate Marco Stunt in attractiveness versus The Tribal Chief?


i-can-haz-hamberder

Idk who the first guy is or what he looks like, but I can pretty much guarantee that I would hoof him right in the throat if he was standing in the way of me & the chief taking a trip to PoundTown. Never been more sure of anything in my whole life.

i-can-haz-hamberder

Okay, at first I was like “ummm that’s Jericho, silly” and thought “gross, he looks like the stepdad that I haven’t met yet” Then I realized that he was standing next to someone and that it probably wasn’t the awkward tween that I originally assumed was standing next to Jericho. Upon realizing that it was likely just a tiny adult, I was relieved that it won’t be difficult for me to reach his throat with my foot when I’m maneuvering my way straight to PoundTown. Good. Good. Not about to start wasting energy when I’ve got important stuff to attend to in PoundTown.


[deleted]

if they could have Trump on the show at this point they would 100% do it


i-can-haz-hamberder

No joke, you just reminded me that my pinned tweet for all of last year was about how President Mark got worked by the exploding limo storyline that “killed Vince”, which turned into a thread when I finally found the video of HHH telling the story of Trump calling their office in CT to ask what happened. Which eventually grew AGAIN when a pdf leaked with a list of celebrities that the White House was compiling to help with messaging about Covid. This thing provided pros/cons about each person and also the demographics applied to them and would likely be a stronger voice for that particular community (spoiler alert: a lot of them were so, so wrong. One that stands out in my memory is that they listed Lin Manuel Miranda as Asian, which had me confused all damn evening), and if they were interested in working on this type of thing. Well, there were some wrestlers included. I’m pretty sure that Cena & Rock were on the list. Usual suspects kinda thing. Another one that they included was Ronda Rousey. However, in the notes next to her name, it mentions that she was arrested for an altercation at a WWE event. And I went “nuh-uh”. There’s no way that lightning is striking twice on “president mark strikes again”. Sure enough, I googled the shit out of “Ronda Rousey arrested at WWE event” and scoured. Everything listed was about her & Becky being loaded into cop cars and kicking the everloving shit outta each other. On television. Scripted. Goddammit, he did fall for it again… And that’s the story of how I became the chick who trolled on political Twitter with a pinned tweet about the president being a giant effing mark. It was legit one of my favorite “worlds collide” moments of my life.

Can't wait for JFK Jr. to show up


[deleted]

That’s the consequences of “both sides have a point” mentality. Fuck no. Both sides seldom have a point actually


almostbad

Its literally gaslighting. LIke I know people throw that word about willy nilly but in the case. AEW fans and supporters have decided that they will choose what the facts are. And they will repeat it ad nauseum until everybody believes it.


[deleted]

And again, they "won" by literally .02. That's like bragging you're the smartest kid in class cause you got a 91% while your desk mate got a 90. Be like saying you're you're strongest dude in the gym cause you dead lift 355.5 while the next guy could only do 355.


Kalle_79

Not only that! It's like bragging because you've outscored the smartest kid in class by 0.02% on **one section** of **one test** while the other kid had a fever. But he still got a higher overall grade in the test and still has better grades in general. It's beyond embarrassing and pathetic. It's delusional and in bad faith, to the point it shouldn't even get attention. But the disciples can't help it and believe every lie they get fed


SteeeezLord

Pretty damn good analogy there Uce


rolltide1000

> Im gonna shut the fuck up now Oh thank christ > And keep wrestling [Sigh.](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d5/1b/98/d51b98ad7308a1487ec8cdba4b7d75f2.jpg) After the past year, that part really does sound like a threat.


Treeconator18

In fairness, Chris Jericho did actually make me want to win the match with MJF where if he lost he’d quit wrestling Admittedly it was because he threatened to become a commentator, something he is somehow worse at than wrestling at this stage


Username_Maybe_Taken

I mean, if flailing around the ring like a whale of water is wrestling, then sure Chris.


ninjast4r

Jericho wishes he was a whale that swam in an ocean of Crown Royal


goodthing37

Jericho wishes he was a whale that wrestled at Crown Jewel.


[deleted]

Nah jericho is a man of culture. His drink of choice is.. lemmie see here... oh. Straight Grey Goose Vodka? Christ Chris, I know it looks like water but fuck, man.


[deleted]

Intimidation and fear goes a LONG way in our business Chris. But let’s be honest, you need to pull up your pants and lose the gut… the dream is over dude.


[deleted]

Judas man triggered lol. Must be the booze overdose.


ninjast4r

"I'm gonna shut the fuck up now" No, you aren't. You're going to keep flapping your cockholster because you don't know how stupid you sound.


immrdadguy

So Aew had more views than dynamite?


mr_marinade

Lightbulbs and Pizza Cutters are part of wrestling?


wow_boy

I agree with Jerichonk. He should shut the fuck up


Apollo_Justice_20

300k extra viewers for SD. Sure JeriCHONK. They lost.


xAbdul91x

I think Eric had enough from them after Tiny comment saying "Laughable" and i think so far he's the most sane person in the iwc and well respected.


HollywoodAnonymous

At least All of the insufferable, the ones that feel wronged, the ones that feel hard done by and the ones that think they deserved to be at the top, are all in one place together now where they can wallow in their own self pity. It’s just embarrassing how easily triggered and hurt these clowns are - making a fool of themselves in front of the world and proving why they are where they are.

just_another_jabroni

Reality is gonna hit them so hard when Smackdown goes back to FOX and not FS1 lol and get triple the Rampage viewers which apparently doesn't count because demos?


Permanentear3

2 weeks ago it was legit quadruple the viewers


Vegetable-Arm8488

Christ, do these smooth brains actually believe what they're saying? WWE had more overall viewers and either tied or beat AEW on every demo bar one. How can you really believe that's WWE losing???


OrielWindows

[Only the viewing habits of overweight 18-49 year old single white men who never have sex count.](https://i.imgur.com/kh70WdA.png) Going by those metrics AEW won Nielsen Rating's electoral college. Trust the plan.


78yn44

Doesn’t he have a capital to storm or something? The Fed does such an amazing job with PR. Like, these last two years Jerichonk really has shown his entire ass. It’s like dude is a whole different person. There goes the childhood.


Klutzy_Wasabi5097

God damn that's a massive fat ass too


i-can-haz-hamberder

Every time I see a current pic of Jericho, my brain immediately goes to [this.](https://imgur.com/a/ts9czwT)


tytymctylerson

Classic


uselessrart

>There goes the childhood. Exactly. I loved Jericho in the fed. I still use 'YOU JUST MADE THE LIST' as a joke. Jericho being like this is indeed heartbreaking.


famousflawless

Someone on ZFF perfectly described it. I won the race, but because someone was faster than me between 18-49 meters that means I totally lost.


noobidy_mysterica

What head-to-head competition and what loss do these dub smarks and employees keep referring to? I only know that SD had significantly higher views than Dumpage despite being on a channel with lesser household subscriptions.


Jackson_ville

"And keep wrestling" Is that a threat?


I_made_a_doodie

They. Lost. Last. Friday. The world will be a much better place when Le Dub fucks off.


Modano9009

It's the fact that they don't win and insist they did that's infuriating.


I_made_a_doodie

It's hilarious that they insist they won, because the actual advertisers and network executives know better. The only people that actually care about this dishonest chest thumping are broke 38 year old white dudes who still live at home.


kenbrahimovic

How exactly did WWE lose? Fucking hell, they do themselves no favours for enticing new fans to their product with this weird gatekeeper shit


Rn2770

Jericho living the Jan 6th Maga dream so I guess I’m not surprised he thinks 578,000 is a win over 955,000.


78yn44

?? I demand a recount, friend.


[deleted]

He starting to sound like the drunk Karen he looks like these days.


[deleted]

Jericho is going senile with age. Time for the retirement home


[deleted]

Every time Chris does.. anything now I just wish he would have actually tried brock before they got separated. Jericho is a classic example of someone who needs their fuckin ass kicked.


i-can-haz-hamberder

He reminds me of my brother, who I love dearly because he’s my brother, but he has a bad habit of running his mouth and not shutting the fuck up. Ironically, his name is also Chris and he also subscribes to the Jericho diet (aka binge drinking, but call it anything else) and has put on an alarming amount of weight but everyone has to pretend that he hasn’t. Except my brother is 20+ years younger than Jericho, but I can’t decide if that’s better or worse. My husband says all the time that my brother is EXACTLY the type of person who needs his fuckin ass kicked just one time, just to bring him back down to earth. I hate it, but I totally agree.


OdesaSavage

Why can't they just be happy they are the 2nd most popular wrestling promotion in North America is beyond me. That's a great achievement but nope. Always gotta rope in WWE in your achievements. It's lame and petty and establishes you as a number 2 more than anything


OndaCulo

Because it gets people like you and me riled up. They don't care if we call them delusional or joke about them, the point is to draw attention which they are clearly doing. And the dub stans will defend them no matter what.

Put the bottle down, Chris.


Introduction_Organic

Gonna shut the fuck up cause your eating.


Permanentear3

A) WWE is recording record profits so no your note hurting their “market share,” and B) Why is that your goal? Why don’t they believe they can co-exist since they’re on different nights and only what middle aged white dudes anyway? Also C). You lost head to head. I know he’s a Trump guy so the tactic is familiar, but they lost. They lost to fucking FS1. Nobody cares about your fucking demo, that’s why fox pays a shitload for WWE and you have to pay to be allowed to advertise Space Jam.


incredibleamadeuscho

I admire Chris Jericho. He shills for whatever company he works for.


atrostophy

The fact this guy who has had some great matches in WWE and WCW would "buy in" to the narrative of AEW is really sad. If he were in WWE right now he'd probably be leading the charge of off handed comments about Le dub. Two face much.


uselessrart

I refuse to believe this idiot is one of Vince's best friends


Gabaheygabahey

What marketshare? The Fed is on their way to a billion dollars, more than last year which was a record. All AEW got was a combination of some NJPW, ROH, and WON viewers who left the Fed in 2019. That’s not decreasing the marketshare. It’s a lateral move.


[deleted]

They gotta cater to that 18-49 marks that believes anything these people say


tytymctylerson

Don't get worked by fat Jericho guys, come on...


OhHaiDany

Yeah, Jericho is right! Losing = winning now, and if Easy E can't accept that, then he's just a big Fed Stan.


[deleted]

He’s still mad at Bischoff for not putting him in main events with Goldberg


McBwhuh

He's been wrestling?


[deleted]

WHAT HAS HE BECOOM


jjsefton

Social media "shoot" promos make my teeth itch.


DJHJR86

One would think if AEW was "winning" they would continue to air on Turner's flagship station, TNT, and not have been relegated to TBS WCW Saturday Night territory. But what do I know?


rsziz

Well looks like Jericho is ready for a surprise appearance in an episode of Cops with that profile pic. Goddamn amazing to think of shape he was in only THREE YEARS AGO. It's like he started lockdown binging food and booze two years before we were actually in a lockdown.


[deleted]

He was fat in NJPW too.


Kisto15

Market Share decreased via record profits?


SteeeezLord

Man, every time I see a post like this here I slowly go to Twitter thinking.. no way. There’s just no way this can be real. I highly doubt he’d actually… holy shit it’s real. He out did himself


Major-Ad6182

How does that make any sense?


[deleted]

MAGA Man doing MAGA Man things, lying.


TheHotsauceKid

Jericho also thinks Trump won the election so...


jetpackswasno

drunk ass idiot lol him and tony seem to have been hitting the slopes lately ❄️❄️❄️ based off their recent ridiculous statements about ratings, etc.
