Chris Jericho

Worth noting this only came out because of a Twitter spat, not because of genuine concern for the woman involved or desire for justice.

Fucking hell. Le Sex Offender.

It was always bizarre the way Kylie suddenly left and nobody spoke about it. It’s a ridiculously bad look if they forced her to sign an NDA and went forward with Jericho as the Champion and top star. I don’t see how any of that happens without Khan being in on it.

Professional wrestling journalism is the fucking pits though. Imagine sitting on stuff like this, only releasing it when Jericho annoys you on Twitter, and even then doing it in that vague, “guess what I know ??,” way. The absolute dirt worst.

Yep. Scum behaviour

Yet, I can guarantee this will end up being a WWE Vs AEW debate in the discourse by the end (probably not here). All roads even regarding sex pests will devolve into tribalism.

Also Jericho, good grief.

Like with Keys and Gray, you get a sense its time for Jericho to disappear and people are reporting shit that has been known for years. Which makes him a cunt and also the wrestling "media" (lol) for just ignoring it. The Kylie Rae thing is common knowledge. Why the fuck did she leave immediately after signing following rumours someone was getting handy with her? The fuck is wrong with this profession that people can just ignore that as "she must not like wrestling anymore."

Haha!

 

Don't be silly mate, you know as well as I do that it's not a wrestling journalist's job to report on sexual impropriety. It's to hint that wrestlers that they don't like are on steroids.

Post-show press conference should be fun tonight.

“Legally we can’t talk about that right now, but thanks for the question, it was a great show tonight, some great matches, and we’re looking forward to a great show live on TBS this coming Wednesday!”

[Merzbow]

None of the arse lickers are asking about it tonight, they've had perfect timing to ask real questions many times now.

[Rob Lowe]

You think Jericho will wrestle tonight? Could be pretty risky from the crowd.

"Kylie Rae" chant would be great.

This could have mega consequences. If Tony ignored this, AEW is pretty fucked. If Meltzer ignored this (Jericho being a long time leaker), The Observer is fucked. Damn, I feel a tidal wave coming.

Jericho has a lot of mega annoying fans online though, they'll be a lot of defenders.

I'll hold my hands up and admit I was very critical of Kylie Rae around that time she was signing with companies and then leaving for personal reasons left and right. To know that this is one of the reasons why makes me feel like a prick. Feel horrible for her and hopefully she gets to tell the whole story and anything Jericho has done is fully exposed.

I doubt it. When has any of this stuff had mega consequences?

From an Observer standpoint, they have - at best - mishandled serious allegations in the past. At worst, they have been dismissive of accusers. And they’re doing just fine. 

In regards to this allegation, there are no suggestions of illegality, as far as I can tell. So I don’t see why this allegation would be a breaking point for a company that employs Ric Flair and several others with serious - and sometimes criminal - accusations made against them.

In all likelihood, the Q&A tonight will go ahead as normal, no one will ask about this, and in a few weeks the allegation will not be a topic of conversation.

Seems the title of the top thread is answered by the title of the thread directly underneath it in this case.

I tell you what, SpursRiot would've got to the bottom of this.

[TheScarlettChad]

Didnt that old leaker that went crazy Metzfan or what was his name on Reddit, would sometimes say that the Divas didnt like Jericho because of his behavior?

Also to this, I know there’s no bad intent in what you’re saying, but I hope this doesn’t happen. She didn’t ask to be linked with this publicly, and who’s to say she even wants to be? That kind of thing could be triggering and unpleasant for her.
