Chris Jericho Says Season 2 of Southpaw Not as Funny as the Original

Chris Jericho was interviewed by Ring Rust Radio and talked about not liking the new season of Southpaw Regional Wrestling as much as the original.

I would love to see a few more. I don’t know if it really took off virally like they thought it would. I’m not sure exactly the numbers on that but it was a lot of fun when we did it and hopefully we get to do more, but I think a lot of times the initial one is the best because it’s such a surprise and no one really knows what they’re getting into. Where as the second one, everybody wanted to get involved and some of the characters weren’t as strong.

I think Miz’s guy was terrible, whatever it was called. Dung. I just thought that was terrible, it wasn’t funny. I thought the butcher guys weren’t funny whereas the first one everyone was funny because no one was really trying… just being whatever they wanted to be. It’s like a sequel to a movie, when you stumble onto something, it’s never as good as the original.

If they do more, I’m sure Clint Bobski will be there. If they don’t, it was a lot of fun while it lasted.
