This version of Chris Jericho is the best that wrestling fans have seen in years. He's funny, arrogant, and can still deliver inside the squared circle. He may eventually risk coming across as a 'cool' heel, but so far, that hasn't been the case. It only goes to show the genius of the man known as Y2J to millions of fans across the world.

Jericho's promos are amazing and the former WWE Superstar is able to think on his feet. For instance, look at the moment when Jericho took the wiener that was thrown into the ring. He took the mic and demanded to know who threw it in the ring. No one else could have pulled that off.

Some fans have complained whether it was smart putting the AEW Title on Jericho, but his moments with the company have been electric, so far. One could argue that his current gimmick is probably his best ever. While his in-ring ability has shown minimal signs of wear and tear, he's still delivering solid matches.

Imagine! This heel version of Jericho started because AEW refused to "Thank Him" for everything he had done for the company. Now, he might actually get his revenge.
