Chris Jericho Criticizes AEW Dynamite Segment

AEW Dynamite has been airing TNT for over a year now, and over the course of the last year fans have seen the company go through come growing pains as they figure out what works, and what doesn’t.

Chris Jericho has been one of AEW’s top stars from the very beginning, and he’s certainly one of the first to hype up any success that comes AEW’s way, but even he recently admitted that not everything can be good.

The first every AEW World Champion appeared on the Keepin’ It 100 podcast, and he pointed out two similar segments that aired back to back while talking about things he’d like to see AEW do different.

“Everything isn’t always good. We have a lot of details slip through the cracks. We still have quite a few times when very similar angles happen right after one another. Example of that was a few weeks ago, when the big question was ‘Will MJF join the Inner Circle?’ We had this big long thing about whether or not MJF was going to join, I think it was a town hall, that’s where Bischoff was there asking questions. And as soon as we were done, we went to like a package, where Taz was asking Will Hobbs if he’s going to join Taz’s team.

“And I went to the production team and I was like, ‘Guys, how can that happen? How can that even be?’ Like, it’s the exact same thing, and nobody even noticed that. Maybe we should move that package somewhere else. In the future, let’s not use to word ‘join’ for Will and Taz. [Instead,] are you going to come with us? Are you going to work with us? Are you going to be a part of our team? ‘Will MJF join the Inner Circle’ was the tagline for our pay-per-view match! Therefore, any other joinings should be suspended for this duration. And that’s just common sense, but sometimes those things just fall through the cracks. I’d like to see a little bit more attention to those kind of details.”
