10 Big WWE Feuds Chris Jericho Could Have If He Stays Long Term

It's about time Y2J had a great run with WWE. Here's the opponents that could give one to him...

WWE.comWWE.comThe return of Chris Jericho to Monday Night Raw on June 30 took the wrestling world by surprise. After all, he has stayed busy by touring with his band Fozzy and his podcast Talk is Jericho. One of the busiest men in all of showbiz, Y2J never seems to have nothing to do. Now back in World Wrestling Entertainment after a year-long absence, he returns to a much different company than the one he left last July. Youth is the name of the game in 2014's WWE. Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and the Wyatt Family are main event acts. Bo Dallas, Adam Rose, Paige and Rusev have been called up from NXT and have had varying degrees of success thus far in their main roster stints. Cesaro and Bad News Barrett, prior to his injury, have finally been on the receiving end of pushes many believe they deserved a long time ago. Sure, John Cena and Randy Orton still have firm grasps on the top of the card but Kane is now THE DEMON Kane so that counts for something, right? More so than it has been since the birth of the Attitude Era, WWE is focused on the future of professional wrestling and there is no better person to bring back to help put the young stars over and teach them a thing or two than the all-time great Jericho. A complete performer capable of going toe-to-toe with any wrestler, both on the mic and the ring, Jericho is an invaluable asset to the company at this point. As seen on Raw, he already has his sights set on a program with Bray Wyatt that will assuredly have the second generation star looking better coming out of it than he did during the entire four-month feud with Cena. Wyatt will likely be the first of many, if management can convince the first-ever Undisputed champion to stick around for a while. The wealth of knowledge and experience Jericho can share with the likes of Rollins and Ambrose and Reigns would not only make those youngsters smarter workers, it would make them and the company they work for better. Who else could benefit from big feuds with Y2J? Which programs would result in great matches that could erase Jericho's last disappointing run? Take a look for yourself by clicking the "next" button.
