WWE Raw: 10 Things You Might Have Missed (April 21)

9. False Advertising

Chris Jericho was understandably upset about Dean Ambrose's first "Ambrose Asylum" - after all, it was just last week that Shane McMahon announced that "The Highlight Reel" was being cancelled in favor of Ambrose's new show.

When Jericho interrupted the opening segment, he voiced his concerns to Shane. The boy wonder calmly responded by telling Jericho that he could watch every episode of "The Highlight Reel" on the WWE Network any time he wanted.

Not only was that an unsatisfying response (watching old shows is hardly an analogous substitute for hosting your own show), but it simply wasn't true. While WWE has added a lot of Raw episodes to the network in recent weeks - including the 2003 episode where Y2J introduced the program - they're not all up there. Many are missing, including the memorable 2008 episode where Jericho turned heel by throwing Shawn Michaels into the Jeritron 6000.

Undoubtedly, Jericho was angered by Shane's flagrant lie. He was probably even angrier later in the show, when he realized Miz TV hadn't been canceled.
