Top AEW Star Chris Jericho appeared on The Sessions podcast with Renee Paquette, where he discussed a number of topics such as how he really likes working with the younger talents.
Chris Jericho said:
“Well when I came back to WWE in 2015 & 2016 is when I started working with Kevin Owens, and Sami Zayn, and Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins. Those were the guys I worked with and that was by design because I didn’t want to be coming back just to work with guys from my generation so to speak. We’ve seen that already. I liked working with the younger guys, which gives them a rub to work with a guy of my experience, but gives me a rub to working with younger guys that have a different style of wrestling in a lot of ways.”
"The Ocho" Chris Jericho also talked about how he thought AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy's gimmick was stupid and how it sucked at first, but Jericho realized that Orange Cassidy is unique and Cassidy knows what he is doing.
Chris Jericho said:
“When I first came to AEW and saw Orange Cassidy. I thought ‘This is stupid. This gimmick sucks, it’s’ stupid.’ And then I was like ‘pull your head out of your ass.’ The guy is super over, what is it about him that works? I realized he’s so unique and he knows exactly what he’s doing.”
