Jericho Names His Favourite Tag Team Partner

 


Chris Jericho appeared on the Superstar Crossover show and revealed that Big Show (Paul Wight in AEW) is his all-time favourite tag team partner. 


"Yeah, Big Show is my favorite tag team. Yeah, he was the best ... Jeri-Show," said Jericho on the show. 


When Chris Jericho and Big Show first joined forces, it took many fans by surprise. Jericho was known for his quick wit, agility, and charisma, while Big Show was a towering force of nature with unmatched strength. The two seemed like an odd couple, but their chemistry both inside and outside the ring quickly became apparent.


Together, Jericho and Big Show embarked on a tag team journey that would leave an indelible mark on WWE history. They captured the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship and proved to be a dominant force in the division. Their contrasting styles complemented each other perfectly: Jericho's speed and technical prowess combined with Big Show's brute strength made them a formidable team.





It was during their partnership that the name "Jeri-Show" began to circulate. While Chris Jericho himself admitted on the Superstar Crossover show that they never officially adopted the moniker, it quickly caught on among fans and announcers. The name perfectly encapsulated the essence of their team – a fusion of Jericho's charisma and Show's sheer size and power.


"Jeri-Show" became a beloved tag team among WWE fans, and their matches were always highly anticipated. Their memorable feud with D-Generation X (Triple H and Shawn Michaels) added another layer to their legacy, culminating in classic battles and unforgettable moments.





Despite their success and chemistry, the team eventually went their separate ways, as is often the case in the ever-evolving world of professional wrestling. However, the impact of Jeri-Show continues to resonate with fans who fondly remember their time together as one of the most entertaining and unexpected partnerships in WWE history.


Chris Jericho's revelation on the Superstar Crossover show sheds light on the organic nature of the "Jeri-Show" name. While it may not have been a formal tag team name chosen by the wrestlers themselves, it symbolizes the magic that can happen when two talented individuals come together and create something special. Jeri-Show's legacy remains a testament to the power of chemistry and the unpredictable nature of professional wrestling, forever etching their names into the annals of WWE history.

Book This Episode 1: The Summer of Punk Rebooked Prelude

     Let’s go back to 2011, specifically June of 2011. CM Punk’s contract is expiring soon and he’s getting ready to have the biggest run of his career. On June 27th, 2011 CM Punk would cut a promo that would have the wrestling world buzzing for years to come. In his promo, Punk said that his contract expired next month and that he, the Number One Contender, would be leaving  WWE with the WWE Championship. He’d also go onto take shots at not only his opponent the following month, John Cena but other icons in the history of WWE. Whether employed by the company or not. He’d also tease defending his WWE Championship in Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Essentially he’d be a travelling World Champion, ala the territory days. Well, CM Punk did win the WWE Championship the next month from John Cena at Money in the Bank. However, what would happen after would disappoint wrestling fans more than anything else that’s happened in years.       How they bungled this storyline, I’m not ent

The State of Professional Wrestling - 11-29-21

     I have a lot of thoughts on the state of professional wrestling in 2021. I think it’s great that AEW is around now and that they’re presenting a great product. I think WWE has the potential not be really boring but I think the consensus is that most of the time it’s just a really boring show. I cannot tell you the last time I sat through a 3 hour Raw. Oh wait, yes I can. September, 9th, 2013 and that’s only because I was at the damn show.       WWE has a problem with stagnation. The product continually feels the same and I think there’s an obvious reason for that. WWE is too scripted. I think there’s a noticeable difference in the presentation between WWE and AEW. AEW feels like a legitimate sports show and WWE feels like broadway theatre without the music. I don’t think it’s a problem with the talent. When you go top-down, guys like Roman Reigns, Big E, Brock Lesnar, Edge, Bobby Lashley, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Finn Balor, Jeff Hardy and Kevin Owens are all main event players.
