Why did this match happen?
WrestleMania 29 - Chris Jericho vs Fandango
it didn’t you schizo
God forbid new talent gets put over
Should have been Jericho Undertaker
but then where do you put Punk
It should've been Punk/Rock/Cena
In the TRASH
The pre show
fandango was over with his dance
Punk Cena
Brock Rock
Jericho Taker
Vince wanted to fuck with Jericho as revenge for Jericho going on Dancing with the Stars without WWE backing.
The Punk vs Taker match is the only decent thing on that shit show.
Could Jericho pull off shitting on Paul Bearer as well as Punk did?
...
Of course, but fans wouldn’t have booed him
This. Fun fact, they baited Jericho into this by saying he was going to work Ryback, which apparently Jericho really wanted.
No lol. You don't add a dimeless skinny fat geek into the biggest money match of all time.
Fandango was over as hell for months after this yet Vince buried him. Why?
Nobody gets over organically in the slopshop
Vince didn't burry him. He did something much worse: Tried to play into it. He killed fandagoing dead in one Jerry Lawler dance party.
Because they took something organically over and forced it into the ground.
Fandangoing died the exact moment they made that promo about everyone doing it then had him come out dancing and ask people if they wanted to fandango.
In an instant it became cringe incarnate.
>Cena/Rock 2
>biggest money match of all-time
WWE co-opting something is a good way to kill its coolness
No doubt
Jericho wanted to leech some of that popularity, he does it all the time
