Chris Jericho Avoided All In Leak Just Prior To Event

During his most recent podcast, “Talk Is Jericho”, Chris Jericho recounts his involvement with the recent All In event. Topics include how he agreed to be a part of the event, the kinds of ideas that were pitched to him, and the challenges he faced using Pentagon Jr.’s second outfit for his surprise appearance.

The whole thing comes across as a comedy of errors, where if anything can go wrong, it probably will.

One singular moment, however, could have unraveled all of the team’s hard work and secrecy.

Jericho traveled to All In with his friend, Jack Slade, who would be instrumental in averting a leak over Chris landing in Chicago.

Arriving late to avoid the majority of fans, who would have already been at the Sears Centre, didn’t stop one fan from recognizing Y2J. Adorned in a Bullet Club t-shirt, he would attempt to take a discreet photo as Jericho exited the plane.

Having noticed, Slade was able to catch up to the fan and discovered they had taken more than one picture on their phone.

After a brief conversation, the fan was decent enough to delete the pictures. With the amount of secrecy involved, Jericho knew it would only take one photo to leak for his appearance to have been completely ruined.

In this day and age where leaks are so prominent and social media so accessible, it’s amazing that they were able to keep Jericho under wraps the way they did, with the payoff – which saw Jericho appear disguised as Pentagon Jr. issue a beating on Kenny Omega – having even more impact because of it.
