Details On Backstage Altercation Between Brock Lesnar & Chris Jericho At SummerSlam

Source: Pro Wrestling Sheet

The backstage altercation between Brock Lesnar and Chris Jericho did indeed go down last after SummerSlam … and The Beast made a few statements during the encounter that would’ve caused any average man to piss himself.

Sources tell Pro Wrestling Sheet that Jericho was acting as a locker room leader who truly believed Brock had attacked Randy Orton during the main event, and Y2J was looking for answers.

We’re told Chris was repeatedly asking for clarification from everyone in the Gorilla position, but wasn’t getting answers because backstage footage was still being shot by crew members.

Brock, however, heard Jericho say this was “bullsh*t” and loudly told the longtime wrestler that this was none of his business. That set Y2J off and he continued asking questions, causing Lesnar to push him. When that happened, Jericho rushed in and tried getting face-to-face with The Beast.

We’re told Brock kissed him on the forehead at that point … then said, “kiss me back, p*ssy.”

Our sources say Jericho didn’t back down though! He actually stepped up and got in Lesnar’s face, ready to fight. But Brock responded, with his arms behind his back, saying “hit me or kiss me, bitch” … causing everyone in the area to swarm in and break them apart, including Triple H.

Things didn’t calm down though, and Vince McMahon eventually rushed in to usher Brock away, while yelling at Chris to be more professional. Jericho fired back at his boss, saying Lesnar was the unprofessional one who started “shooting” on his co-worker … to which Vince replied, “It’s a work! What’s wrong with you?!” implying the blood job was planned in some way.

Shortly after, the two sides went their separate ways backstage.

One source tells us they believe Jericho had all the right intentions, but many believe he handled things completely wrong due to his role as one of the longest tenured members of the roster.

Details of the incident were first reported by F4wonline.com

WWE Star Critical Of How WWE Is Booking The Divas Revolution

Chris Jericho stated on a recent episode of his Talk Is Jericho podcast that WWE is going along with the Divas Revolution storyline the wrong way.

Jericho said:

“You can’t push nine people at once. You can’t. They introduced too many people in too short a timeframe and put them all together, so now it’s just one big wash.”

Jericho continued by praising the talents:

“I think all the divas are talented. I think the four from NXT (Bayley, Becky Lynch, Charlotte and Sasha Banks), even though Bayley is not there yet, are off the charts talented, but I think it’s not working right now in the WWE because it’s too much at once.”

Jericho then compared the Four Horsewomen of NXT – Bayley, Becky Lynch, Charlotte and Sasha Banks to Jericho, Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit.

“You can’t put us with the other guys that aren’t of the level and expect the same type of matches. And those girls in the WWE are working hard, the Bellas and Alicia Fox and Paige, but those four from NXT, they just know each other better. They’re cut from a different cloth. They work together better, so they are going to be having better matches.”

Live with Chris Jericho recap

One of the many perks of the WWE NETWORK are the exclusives you get. One of those exclusives is Live with Chris Jericho.

Tonight was the 2nd edition of the show and Chris Jericho’s guest was none other than Stephanie McMahon herself. In this in depth one on one conversation many topics were covered. Everything from how Stephanie got started in the business, her relationship with her husband Triple H, her favorite moments in her career, her feud with Jericho, her infamous slap, the segment with Ronda Rousey at mania and so much more.

While watching this interview you can’t help but love Stephanie. She truly is an incredible woman with a big heart and an undying love for this business. Even though Stephanie portrays a heel on television that couldn’t be further from the truth. Stephanie however says playing a heel is important especially when she gets what’s coming to her because it shows the WWE universe to stand up to the bully. She talked about what an impact Be a Star has had and how much she wishes it was around in the early days.

Stephanie admits that she loves being a “Bitch” on television and the boos she receives is the greatest feeling. Boos are like a standing ovation to heels and she absolutely loves it.

On working with Ronda Rousey.

Stephanie said that from the moment she slapped The Rock and heard the crowd chatting for Ronda she knew the moment was going to be good. She said to work with someone as empowering as Ronda was incredible. She says what she loves about Ronda is that she isn’t afraid to be herself and she hopes that her daughters can learn to be like her.

She also went on to say that Ronda proves that women can main event and she hopes to one day do the same with the WWE divas. She continued to say she wants to work with Ronda again but only time will tell and she was proud of that mania moment.

Regarding #GiveDivasAChance

Stephanie spoke on that it was trending on Twitter for 3 days and that’s because the fans wanted to be heard. She went on to say that the moment was so important that Vince McMahon himself had to respond. Stephanie went on to say that she continues to push #GiveDivasAchance everyday and hopes that one day they can get a true chance to prove themselves.

On her favorite match/moment.

Her match with Brie Bella is her favorite thing in her career for two reasons.

  • It had been 11 years since she last competed in the ring prior to that moment
  • Her 3 daughters where in the crowd

When describing this moment Stephanie got emotional because after the match concluded and she went backstage she was met by her daughters chanting “you still got it

In this interview she also talked about

  • Her oldest daughter being a natural-born heel
  • Working with Chris Jericho
  • Sharing Vickie Guerrero’s final moment of her career with her
  • Being scared by George ” the animal steal”
  • Her brother Shane

If you missed this one I highly suggest you watch it on demand on the network if you can or find it on YouTube or something because it was awesome and insightful.
