Chris Jericho is a legend in his own right. After staying with WWE for most of his career, he made the transition to AEW in 2019 and became the World Champion.

However, Jericho’s one of the main talent lies outside the ring as he mentors and grooms the newer talents of tomorrow. Recently he welcomed MJF into his ‘Inner Circle. The duo defeated the rest of the stable members and earned the chance to face the AEW Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks.

Recently fans trolled and criticized Jericho for his ‘out-of-shape’ body, to which Jericho aptly clapped back. Now putting his words into action, the ‘Demo God’ of AEW recently shared a post, showcasing his improved physique.

He captioned the post with “Good lighting in this closet!” Jericho could be mimicking his apprentice MJF‘s recent Tweet where he showed off his physique.

Remarkably, fellow AEW superstar Thunder Rosa trolled MJF as she said the superstar’s abs were an outcome of the lighting and not the exercises. Jericho could also be alluding to Rosa’s comments.

In Jericho’s post, AEW stars like Brandi Rhodes, Sonny Kiss, Britt Baker, and WWE stars Drake Maverick and Kevin Nash lauded his physique in the comment section.
