WWE veteran blames Chris Jericho for major AEW star s potential face turn

A former WWE personality blasted Chris Jericho about this top AEW star. Former WWE manager held Chris Jericho responsible for the potential babyface turn of AEW star Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF). MJF was by The Firm after he ordered them to stop ganging up on Jon Moxley last week on Dynamite. It seemingly signaled a face turn as The Salt of the Earth has been getting major positive crowd reactions as of late. During the latest episode of The Jim Cornette Experience, the WWE veteran put the blame of MJF's potential upcoming character change on Jericho. Cornette thought a generational talent like the former shouldn't be messed up, especially its character. It was after the ROH World Champion said during the All Out media scrum that the 26-year-old would eventually shift as a babyface and that he would teach the latter how to properly execute a comeback as a good guy. "And we heard Chris Jericho came out at that media deal said 'Oh, MJF's gotta be babyface immediately.' Like anybody who hadn't been in a wrestling business for 20 years would know that the exact thing that you don't do with a generational talent like MJF is change him up. That's why they like him because they've liked what he's been but if he can take the edge off MJF and diminish his popularity, then he's got rid of the veteran and now he's minimalized the up-and-coming prospect," Cornette said. [from 9:16 - 9:48] Check out the clips from this episode: However, it remains to be seen if MJF will really turn babyface or if he is just mapping out a plan to lure Moxley into his trap heading into their world title match at Full Gear.
