Since AEW Dynamite’s inception, there has been quite a few solid promo from stars such as Kenny Omega, Jon Moxley, Cody Rhodes and others.
Chris Jericho is certainly no stranger to crafting masterful promos. Speaking on Keeping it 100 with Konnan, Chris Jericho discussed AEW’s style of promos and how he wants old-school style in the mix as well.
It’s funny because somebody was pointing that out, the old school promo or something, and I watched that just today,” Jericho said. “Actually, Ricky Starks did one and I was like– I text Cody and Tony and I was like, ‘When did you guys start doing this? I want to do this! This is how I learned how to do promos in the box in WCW, we’d have those in the back.”
He then mentioned a few AEW stars whom he feels give good promos.
“It’s rare that they can find good actors,” Jericho said. “But take an example like Cody. He knows how to raise the voice at the right time. Dustin Rhodes, he knows exactly where to kick it in. I feel I’m the same way, but there is a lot of guys just basically talking.”
