Jericho proves pre-return hype was just that
February 12th, 2012 | 
Author: Long before his current return to WWE, Chris Jericho was Tweeting and blogging “off the cuff” reactions to C.M. Punk’s title reign, practically accusing the WWE champ of plagiarizing Jericho’s gimmicks and career. Last week’s RAW proves that was Jericho marketing a feud he desired for his return, as he spoke at length for the first time since coming back to RAW.
His energetic speech hit all the right talking points, and proved he is still a great talker. And C.M. Punk’s wordless response played into Jericho’s claims to increase the feud, by aping Jericho’s month-plus-long gimmick of appearing and saying nothing.
I knew this was going to be a WrestleMania-worthy match-up. Now the joy is merely in watching it play out.
