Chris Jericho Melts Down on AEW Dynamite, Smashes TV and Walks Out on His Own Faction

Chris Jericho is tired of being disappointed—and this week on AEW Dynamite, he made that crystal clear.

During the April 9 broadcast, Jericho stormed into his “Learning Tree” segment and lit into Big Bill and Bryan Keith. After their collective failures at AEW Dynasty—Jericho losing the ROH World Title to Bandido and his protégés coming up short against The Hurt Syndicate—Jericho didn’t hold back.

“I’m not mad that none of you have gold. I’m not even mad you weren’t there for me when I lost my title,” Jericho said. “I’m just… disappointed.”

Then came the meltdown. With no warning, Jericho grabbed a baseball bat and started destroying the television on set, smashing it while yelling “I’m disappointed!” to anyone who would listen. The crowd watched in stunned silence as the veteran star unraveled live on national TV.

Big Bill, clearly rattled, tried to explain himself, saying he joined the group to “learn, not to be Jericho’s punching bag.” But it was too late.

Jericho stared down his team and said he was done—for now. “Until that changes, it’s best that I leave.”

The emotional breakdown could mark a turning point for The Learning Tree—or the end altogether. With Jericho walking out and his stablemates failing to deliver when it mattered most, AEW fans are left wondering what’s next for the former World Champion.
