Chris Jericho Takes Shot At Brock Lesnar Winning WWE Money In The Bank
All Elite Wrestling's Chris Jericho took to Twitter after WWE Money In the Bank and posted comments on the surprise return of Brock Lesnar.
As noted, Lesnar made a surprise return in the men's MITB Ladder Match and won the briefcase. Some fans online are interpreting the comments from AEW's top star as a troll jab at WWE and The Beast.
Jericho wrote, "Awesome to see @BrockLesnar win the #MoneyInTheBank match...even though he wasn't officially entered! Brock is the future of the biz and this perfect example of genius booking shows why @WWE will remain on top FOREVER! #GoBrockGo"
For those who missed it, Jericho previously took to Twitter to troll WWE, Ring of Honor, Impact Wrestling and Lesnar after the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view back in January.
Those tweets saw Jericho claim that AEW is only interested in "maybe 6-8" talents from WWE, ROH and Impact. He wrote, "Hey @wwe, @ringofhonor & @IMPACTWRESTLING ... I love watching you push all your randoms, But just know that we are interested in maybe 6-8 of your talents total. We don't need you! @AEWrestling"
Regarding Lesnar, Jericho wrote after the Rumble, "Intimidation and fear goes a LONG way in our business guys. But let's be honest, @BrockLesnar needs to pull up his pants and lose the gut... the dream is over dude. I don't play by the script... @wwe @AEWrestling"
Those post-Rumble tweets were deleted by Jericho. He also told fans that he was not drunk-tweeting that night.
