They've ignored them before. Granted, they don't do it very often, but it's been done in the past. Hopefully, it WILL turn out to be Jericho, and he really CAN save the WWE from all the terrible press they've been getting lately.I find it odd that none of the announcers on Raw or ECW said anything about it, and that it isnt even remotely mentioned on wwe.com. Usually when something like this comes up the announcers will bring attention to it for at least a moment or two.
the save us from the promo and jericho coming to save the wwf in 99 are more then coincidence tho, if you ask me.
One of the big symbols for No Mercy this year is a dove. Any one else find this a bit odd? I'm thinking this may be another clue-tying into what shadowmancer said about planting clues other than the video. Did Y2J ever do anything with doves? Something with Fozzy maybe? Just throwing it out there.
Here is my train of thought on this. Jericho coming back would be a HUGE deal to the WWE, assuming they properly use him. Anyway, part of me does believe he'll be back at No Mercy, but part of me thinks that them showing this graphic for only two weeks prior to the event is a bit rushed. If I remember the countdown clock correctly, it spanned out over weeks and weeks until that faithful autumn night. It wasn't something that came up a week before a PPV. Still, I really hope he returns at No Mercy, mainly because I'll be there.
Anyway, here is how I see this panning out. Next week on RAW, the weird techy graphic comes back, but this time at the end, it doesn't say SAVE__US.222, but rather, it says SAVE_US.22J. Then, No Mercy rolls around and Mr. Kennedy returns. He comes out on the mic, starts doing his normal schtick about how awesome he is and how he's back and blargh blargh blargh. Next thing you know, mid-promo, the graphic comes up on the 'tron, but this time, at the end it says "SAVE_US.Y2J" This cues pyro of some sort and Jericho is at the top of the ramp, leading to an undoubtedly hilarious exchange between Jericho and Mr. Kennedy, much how Jericho's debut in the WWF/E was years back with The Rock in the ring.
So basically, yeah, that's what I am pulling for. Makes sense to me.
I really hope they do this like when they brought him originally. A nice little build up would keep people watching, myself included. [i know when triple h came back/was coming back around summerslam i constantly watched RAW because of rumors he'd be coming back.] I like the idea of a feud with Kennedy. If Kennedy somehow came back and we all found out he was the illigitimate McMahon.. Jericho could interrupt the big announcement or ceremony or whatever, starting a good feud. I don't particularly want to see him in the title scene, but I think this is a good opportunity to get some ratings and help build someone like Kennedy up to championship status. Leading him to go on to a world title main event.
