#4 Jericho knows how to turn eyes and promote the company
Is anyone more deserving of becoming the first AEW World Champion than Chris Jericho? Ever since he signed a deal with All Elite Wrestling, Jericho has been promoting the company on all of his social media handles, in his unique heelish manner.
Be it the success of Double Or Nothing, or AEW's 'All Out' selling out in 15 minutes, Jericho has made it a point to remind the fans that all this has been made possible due to his presence in the company.
Over the past several months, Jericho has worked incredibly hard to promote the company, as well as himself. His words on social media and interviews will carry more weight once he becomes the first AEW World Champion.

#3 It will look good in the record books, years down the line
When pro-wrestling fans dive down memory lane, they find that every major company has a rich history. Once a company comes on the map, it makes sure to give the first title reign to someone who has accomplished a lot in the past and will be remembered as one of the all-time greats.
The legendary Lou Thesz was the first NWA Heavyweight Champion, while Buddy Rogers was the first WWE Champion. When WCW separated itself from NWA, Ric Flair was its first Champion.
It's only fitting that AEW makes Jericho its first Champion. It will look good in the record books down the line, as Jericho is a legend in his own right and no one can take that away from him.
