Now obviously Jericho nowadays is quite a bit different then young Randy Orton but Y2J is hitting some similarities now.
I mean look at the similarities:
Both beat up and taunt old men that should be done wrestling (Though some of their appearances are nice).
Orton kick-started his career by beating Shawn Michaels.
Jericho kick-started his return by feuding and beating Shawn Michaels. (I consider the ladder match the biggest win in the feud, and yeah when Shawn beat Jericho... Jericho won the world title, so meh)
They both challenge semi-retired legends... Orton with Mick Foley and way more legends.. Jericho challenging Ric Flair and the 3 legends in his handicap match.
They both use the word "audacity" a lot.
They both believe they have or will surpass everything the legends have done, they both believe that they are superior to the hall of famers and they both believe that the legends should be forgotton and people should look at the present and future of the wwe.
And after this weeks Raw, Lawler has now got all up in both of their faces at one point or another.
And the list continuous.. But Lawlers "challenge" has got me worrying about Jericho's Wrestlemania match.. On the card as of last week the 3 on 1 with Flair in the corner looks rather.. Terrible. But its WWE and Wrestlemania 25. I really hoped by now they'd show a hint of w.e twist that will make this moment memorable. But after the assault on Ric Flair which was pretty well done, Lawler announces the last Monday before Wrestlemania that he wants to fight Jericho??
What the heck does that accomplish? The crowd doesn't give that much of a shit about Lawler, they know he's going to get his ass kicked.. Now if it was JR getting feisty then we'd have some sort of hint Stone Cold would be pissed and defend his friend (which obviously is not the case and would have been set up earlier) but Lawler...
Will next weeks Monday Night Raw include some sort of major threat for Jericho at Mania after Lawler wastes our time becoming hopefully a bloody mess? Does Chris Jericho have any hope of stealing SOME of the show at Wrestlemania? Making some moment I can look back on and be like HELL YES THAT WAS JERICHO! Or is Mickey Rourke doing some lame appearance or interference or the legends all turn into optimus prime and eventually beat Jericho using all of their finishers or something insanely lame like that destined to happen? Just the thought of either of those endings makes me wish the match was off the card so I don't throw up in my mouth.
