Ranking Every AEW Wrestler's 2020 From Worst To Best
9. Chris Jericho
2020 was the year Chris Jericho went from 'Le Champion' to star-maker, and that's okay.
While the former 'Alpha' was already playing this game last year, lifting the likes of Scorpio Sky and Jungle Boy up, he has gone into overdrive since dropping Pretty Platinum. The Orange Cassidy feud and ongoing storyline with MJF and The Inner Circle were scripted specifically to get the young wrestlers over. Both have succeeded to a big extent, and when 'The Salt of the Earth' emerges from Jericho's orbit, he'll soar higher than ever before, become the latest beneficiary of working with one of AEW's biggest mainstream.
That rub, more than any individual match, segment, or feud, is Jericho's true value in 2021.
