Chris Jericho Talks PAC, AEW’s Growth and Hall of Fame

Chris Jericho (0:00)

And if I finish my career with AEW and the first inductee or the second inductee or the tenth inductee at AEW Hall of Fame, that's great too, but I'm in the Hall of Fame in my head and in the heads of anybody that appreciates the work that I've done. It's good enough for me, man.

Branson Quirk (0:24)

Welcome to TMZ's Inside the Ring. I'm Branson Quirk.

Roger Corral (0:27)

I'm Roger Corral.

Branson Quirk (0:28)

And we have Wrestling Royalty.

Roger Corral (0:30)

Wrestling Royalty, baby.

Branson Quirk (0:31)

Like that's like at the very least we could say that.

Roger Corral (0:34)

Yeah.

Branson Quirk (0:34)

At the very least. Like I shouldn't even be speaking.

Roger Corral (0:38)

Do we call him Sir?

Branson Quirk (0:40)

We should.

Chris Jericho (0:40)

Yeah, we should. We're twin as Sir.

Branson Quirk (0:42)

Right. I mean, last time we had someone that you considered royalty. You put down the red carpet in the front.

Roger Corral (0:48)

I didn't have enough time this time.

Chris Jericho (0:49)

Why didn't you put red carpet for him? I'm sorry, dude.

Roger Corral (0:51)

I should stock up on carpet.

Branson Quirk (0:52)

That's a little.

Roger Corral (0:53)

I know.

Chris Jericho (0:53)

I'm sorry.

Branson Quirk (0:54)

But if you don't know, MJF was here.

Roger Corral (0:56)

Yeah.

Branson Quirk (0:56)

We put out the red carpet for him, and he was real upset about it.

Roger Corral (0:59)

And now he hated it. He might be upset about it.

Branson Quirk (1:01)

I actually showered at lunchtime for this. You did? In the gym here.

Roger Corral (1:05)

Yeah.

Branson Quirk (1:05)

I'm a hair good. You look good. Don Kalitz actually taught me this. I always want to be looking good, but then he scolded me for it afterwards.

Yeah. So, well, anyways, we got further adieu.

Chris Jericho (1:15)

Chris Jericho is... I'm sitting right here.

Roger Corral (1:19)

This bit won't end.

Branson Quirk (1:20)

We're trying to make the illusion that...

Chris Jericho (1:22)

Here's the best part. I was going to sit like this, but you guys are both sitting like that, so I don't want the whole group to sit with their legs crossed. So I have my legs crossed. But I will be watching with an eagle eye for when one of you guys uncrosses, then I'm crossing.

Roger Corral (1:34)

Oh, I mean, if you want to cross, I'll do it. There you go.

Branson Quirk (1:37)

If you're going to have me thinking about that, it's over, man.

Chris Jericho (1:40)

It's already over. Wrestling royalty. How do you act in front of the queen? Do you cross your legs? Do you not cross your legs?

Branson Quirk (1:45)

Oh, I need to call Don Callis.

Chris Jericho (1:46)

Yeah, he's the one that caught us.

Roger Corral (1:48)

We've been trying to get into those parties, by the way.

Chris Jericho (1:51)

Don Callis parties?

Roger Corral (1:52)

Yeah.

Chris Jericho (1:52)

They're not very fun.

Roger Corral (1:53)

Oh, is that so?

Chris Jericho (1:54)

It's just a bunch of gummies and wham being played.

Branson Quirk (1:57)

Finally, we got some information about the party.

Chris Jericho (1:58)

Yeah, we've been trying to get information on these.

Branson Quirk (2:00)

He would not tell us. He would not tell us. Well, Jericho, welcome to TMZ. Thank you.

Chris Jericho (2:04)

You've been here a few times. I have. It's great to have you back. It's great to be back here. Awesome place, awesome time. Good place. Congratulations on your success.

Branson Quirk (2:11)

Thank you.

Chris Jericho (2:12)

Going through the roof. So yeah, it's cool for me to be here. Thanks so much.

Branson Quirk (2:14)

Hey, how's LA treating you? What are you doing out here?

Chris Jericho (2:17)

Talking to you. I'm always out here doing stuff. There's always stuff going on when you're in town because it is LA. So lots of people live here. There are always meetings to be had in Hollywood, you know, cognoscente that you need to discuss and that sort of a thing. But yeah, I mean, once again, there's always reasons to come to Los Angeles, and we actually have a good one today, don't we?

Branson Quirk (2:38)

We do. And we haven't told the audience yet, but Roger and I, we are going on your cruise.

Chris Jericho (2:44)

Right.

Branson Quirk (2:45)

Jericho Cruise.

Chris Jericho (2:46)

Yes, Chris Jericho's Rock and Wrestling Rager. Seventh cruise of a seventh cruise!

And you guys, 7th to 11th, Miami to Bimini, which is in the Bahamas. And you guys will be joining us.
