AEW Dynamite will make its South Florida debut with Champ Chris Jericho leading the charge
How many hats can one person wear?
Well, if you’re Chris Jericho, plenty.
Wrestler, rock singer, author, TV show host, actor, podcast host, TV personality and even cruise director (sort of), Jericho is a legend of his first profession and a renaissance man overall, parlaying his success in the squared circle into other ventures, all successful.
Here is my video interview with Jericho during his South Florida media rounds as AEW Dynamite on TNT is Wednesday, Jan. 15 from the Watsco Center at the University of Miami in Coral Gables.
Jericho is Le Champion of All Elite Wrestling, the new high-profile organization owned by the famous Khan family.
A future Hall of Famer for sure, Jericho with 30 years in the wrestling business is still going strong.
That’s a testament to his ability to appeal, entertain and capture audiences with his in-ring skill, creativity, psychology and work on the mic. Possessing those attributes, he is currently making another mark by being the face of upstart AEW.
Thus, Jericho is the company’s champion and biggest name on a solid roster.
His aptness to evolve, do something different, is an important element in his longevity.
In AEW, Jericho has a new role. Now leader of the faction The Inner Circle [Jake Hager, Sammy Guevara, Santana and Ortiz], Jericho continues to make things interesting...very interesting.
Raise your glass with a little bit of the bubbly for Jericho.
