Jericho mentions that telling a story is much more important to him at this point than individual match quality. He’s more concerned with selling out stadiums than he is delivering a 6-star match, but he thinks that all of his matches are good anyways because he understands how to tell a story in the ring.
McMahon was fine with the news that Jericho was going to challenge Kenny Omega at WrestleKingdom, knowing that Jericho’s a WWE guy who’s now going to be waving the WWE flag in Japan. In addition, after working an event this big, when Jericho returns to WWE his return will mean so much more.
Jericho informs that it was actually him who demanded that McMahon hire doctors for the backstage area, after he was forced to sit in an Emergency room for several hours after a WWE show to get stitches. He was one of WWE’s top guys at that time and pointed out to McMahon that a Billion dollar company like WWE should have their own doctors backstage and McMahon agreed.
That sums up the special 500th episode of The Taz Show. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya tomorrow for another recap!
