Main Event…IS…JERICHO! JBL and Cole welcome us to WWE Main Event! It’s time for the Highlight Reel with The Ayatollah of Rock and Rolla, The King of the World, The Best in the World at What He Does…Y2J…CHRIS JERICHO!
Jericho takes in the ovation from the crowd, and welcomes everyone to the Highlight Reel. Jericho announces that while Miz was supposed to be his guest, however, due to Cesaro’s actions on Monday Night, he would be unable to show. Jericho goes to the Jeritron 5000 and shows the footage. Jericho goes to welcome his new guest, but reconsiders and welcomes Ricardo Rodriguez to introduce Alberto Del Rio the only way Rodriguez can!
Alberto thanks Jericho for having him on the Highlight Reel. He says the time for talking is done and that on Sunday he’ll take on the Big Show and defeat him to retain the World Champion. Jericho says despite all his respect for Alberto’s family, when he wins the Chamber Match, he’ll go on to Wrestlemania and become the world champion. Jericho and Alberto go at it verbally in Spanish, causing Ricardo to go crazy with the Spanish.
Ziggler interrupts with his entourage, claiming that it’s a waste of time to talk about the World Championship without talking about him. AJ agrees, but Jericho shuts them up. He goes after Big E Langston’s name. Dolph blows off Jericho and Del Rio, which sets him off a little. Del Rio challenges Dolph Ziggler, and Jericho gets the crowd’s interest. This match may be on after the break!
