All Elite Wrestling World Champion Chris Jericho was a recent guest on Barstool Breakfast. During the interview, Jericho opened up about whether he ever received advice from WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair. He also divulged what he feels are the worst WWE storylines he was a part of.
Recalling his experiences with Flair, Jericho shared that ‘The Nature Boy’ never really gave him any advice or feedback on his matches. Even when asked directly for his thoughts, Jericho stated that Flair would just lie about seeing the match.
“Either he didn’t really say much, he’s a great guy, or he would just lie and say he saw the match and wouldn’t give you much feedback,” Jericho explained. “There were other guys who were worse than that.”
When it comes to his least favorite WWE storylines, Jericho admitted that there were plenty to choose from. He settled on his time co-sharing the Intercontinental Championship with the late Chyna as well as when he was managed by Stephanie McMahon:
“There have been some bad storylines,” he said. “I remember with Chyna, they had us be the co-Intercontinental Champions, where we shared the one title, which is ridiculous. That was a stupid story. There was another one when I was actually the World Champion, where it was Jericho vs. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon was my manager, I guess, and they were playing the thing like I was [expletive]-whipped by her but I wasn’t banging her, so it was kinda like just being a bitch.”
Chris Jericho is scheduled to defend his AEW World Championship against Cody at AEW Full Gear on November 9th.
