• Chris Jericho says that being friends with Eddie Kingston is worse than any curse Danhausen could muster.
Jericho says he took out Bryan Danielson and we don’t know when he’s back, and then says Ruby Soho has a mangled hand because she is Eddie’s Ruby.

He says Kingston is a mark for people like Sabu, Terry Funk & Onita but Kingston himself has never even been in a Barbed Wire match.
But Jericho won the first barbed wire match in Canadian wrestling history.
Jericho says he is just as sadistic as Kingston and that’s because Kingston is not facing Jericho…he’s facing The Painmaker next week.
Jericho says once he’s beaten Kingston he can go back to his mental issues and drugs to cover up that he will never be at Jericho’s level.
