Give the man some credit.

Throughout his (mainly) entertaining run in All Elite Wrestling, Chris Jericho has once again shown that he should always be in the conversation when it comes to discussion around the greatest of all time.

His run as 'Le Champion', complete with bubbly-filled goodness, was the calm and steady hand the new promotion needed, and Jericho responded to the responsibility with some of the best work of his career. He wasn't as dynamic in the ring as he once was, and as he passed half a decade in age, it was accepted that his usually well toned physique would begin to loosen.

But man, the internet gave him pelters. Twitter, a usual cesspool of abuse, body shammed the legend for his bloated look, and considering he was embarking on a (not so) cool run as a babyface, it looked like the leader of the Jericho Appreciation Society was trundling towards retirement.

However, in 2021, during a tour with Fozzy, Jericho found himself in hospital for unspecified medical issues. It's no secret the man liked to party but since the turn of the year, the former Y2J has stuck two fingers up at the haters in the best way possible, by shredding his body to such an extent that he looks and moves like a man ten years younger.

Like we said, give the man some credit. He looks great, and it's coincided with a fantastic 2022.
