I agree. Jericho as an initial temporary champion is fine, but Jericho as an active wrestling anchor in the main card I don't approve of. The main event should be all on Moxley/Omega/Cody and for pushing new stars. And to be fair, I think Jericho knows this; he's not stupid to think that people want to see a 50-year old guy in the ring. His Judas Effect finisher is clearly being used to compliment his age and back issues (even though he does do DDP Yoga).
Now, Jericho as a personality? All day every day. his "Little Bit of the Bubbly" is a fantastic meme for the flavor of the month and he's very good at creating buzz. He could basically be AEW's Paul Heyman.
