[Watch] Chris Jericho debuts new theme song on AEW Dynamite
Former WWE and AEW World Champion Chris Jericho introduced a brand new theme song on this week's edition of Dynamite following his recent win at the Dynasty pay-per-view.
In a shocking turn of events, Y2J defeated HOOK to win the FTW Championship this past weekend, turning heel in the process. The Ocho also faced a lot of backlash online, as fans accused him of burying younger talent like HOOK. Regardless, Jericho introduced a brand new character, "The Learning Tree."
On the most recent episode of Dynamite, Jericho made his entrance in Jacksonville as the new FTW Champion. Interestingly, he also debuted a new entrance theme song titled, "The Learning Tree," giving up his amazing previous theme song "Judas" by his Fozzy band.
During the segment, Chris Jericho addressed his title win at Dynasty. Furthermore, Big Bill also came out to request Jericho to mentor him under his learning tree, which could be a tease for a new faction. It will be interesting to see where the story goes from here.
