Chris Jericho Takes Aim At Brock Lesnar: “Pull Up Your Pants And Lose The Gut”
Chris Jericho is renewing his rivalry with Brock Lesnar.
During last night’s Royal Rumble, Jericho was on social media and taking shots at former foe, WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar. Jericho and Lesnar infamously got into a backstage argument/scuffle at SummerSlam 2016 following Lesnar’s bout against Randy Orton. Jericho was upset with Lesnar after he believed The Beast took liberties with Orton in the ring by cutting him open with elbows.
And now that they are on different rosters, Jericho says he isn’t playing by the rules.
Intimidation and fear goes a LONG way in our business guys. But let’s be honest, @BrockLesnar needs to pull up his pants and lose the gut… the dream is over dude. I don’t play by the script… @wwe @AEWrestling

Brock Lesnar, who doesn’t actually tweet, has not responded. Paul Heyman, who does tweet, has not responded either.
