Dalton Castle Believes Chris Jericho As ROH Champion Is “Off Putting” Due To How “He Looks Down” On Ring Of Honor

Dalton Castle has a chance to regain the ROH World Championship on Tuesday’s AEW Dynamite when he challenges Chris Jericho for the title.

Castle is a former ROH World Champion and is currently one part of the ROH six man champions also. Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Castle was asked for his thoughts on Jericho holding the title.

“Since 2015 that’s when I started with Ring of Honor. How do I feel? It’s a little off-putting. It was exciting to see the name of a man who I looked up to as a teenager to carry the title that represented the company I loved so much for so long. At the same time, he keeps talking down about it. He looks down on Ring of Honor. He thinks he’s better than everybody that has come through the doors of Ring of Honor. It’s my job to step in there and shut him up and show him what a mistake he’s making to run his mouth like that and maybe beat a little respect into him and at the same time please the audience,”

It was announced earlier today ahead of Tuesday Night Dynamite that Jericho has signed a contract extension with AEW. Time will tell what this will mean for his reign as Ring Of Honor World Champion.
