Age should not factor in.

And as far as the hypocrisy of his Lesnar comments, it fits right in with his heel character. Troll the internet and be a hypocritical bastard. It’s harder and harder to make a heel nowadays. If you’ve gotta can me off as a scummy guy online to do it, so be it.

Also, the fact that he was a WWE main eventer shouldn’t factor in. He’s a star. Showcase him while you’re building homegrown talent. This isn’t TNA taking anyone who ever had a cup of coffee in WWE and making them champion over all their guys for a decade +. It’s a new company putting the title on their biggest star and then, hopefully trying to build up their own guys organically instead of just throwing the title on a midcard guy and crossing their fingers ala WWE. Make the title a big deal and THEN put it on the star you made.
I thought we wanted AEW to be an alternative to WWE. Not more of the same. WWE gets shit on when they bring in legends and thrust them into the main event. Everyone whines about it.....but hey this is AEW so it's fucking awesome to bring in an old legend and thrust them into the main event. WHAT?

And we're just going to dismiss the shit Jericho said on twitter because hey it conveniently fits in with him being a heel? LOL that's rich. Do we give Lars a pass for saying racist shit because it's totally a heel move and he was just setting up his character to be hated?

It's like you're picking and choosing when certain things are acceptable based solely on the company/person doing them. People/companies you like get a pass, the ones you don't get grief.

I'm probably just too high and reading too much into this. You're probably just shilling for Jericho (can't blame you, he is the titties) or AEW.
