While wrestling fans were recovering from last night’s WWE Royal Rumble, All Elite Wrestling‘s biggest signee in Chris Jericho was adding his commentary with some intriguing statements on Twitter. It was in regards to his new company’s interest in some of the talent on North America’s top three promotions, claiming that AEW is only interested in 6-8 of their talents total.

In addition, Jericho also took a dig at reigning and defending WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar, and said ‘the dream is over’ for The Beast Incarnate, and that he should lose the gut because he’s not as intimidating as he once was:

Fans met Jericho’s comments with a variety of reactions, including the suggestion that he was inebriated, but Jericho said this was not the case.
