With Chris Jericho finding himself 30 years or so into a career for the ages, it's safe to say he's more than aware of what he will and won't be doing again within a squared-circle.

Joining that list of moves Le Champion simply refuses to have any part in as he comes to the latter stages of his spell as an active performer, AEW: Revolution 2022 saw Jericho be dumped onto his head in a rather specific way during his showdown with long-time rival Eddie Kingston.

And while the former AEW World Champion had once been dropped in a similar fashion by AEW commentator Taz many moons ago, The Mad King's release half-and-half suplex during their show-opening epic is something Jericho happily won't be revisiting again any time soon.

As he'd explain on the AEW Restricted podcast (via TJRWrestling):

"I was like ‘We’re on first. I want you to just dump me on my head’ and it was a terrible bump, it was terrible. I’ve only taken one other bump like that in my life, taken from our broadcast colleague Taz back when I was 25 years old. And I’ll never do it again."

At 52-years-old, it's probably wise for the JAS leader to leave the savage neck and head bumps to the younger generation... but even they should probably give them a miss really.
