• Chris Jericho Defends Disco Inferno
A fan recently bad-mouthed WCW Veteran Disco Inferno in favor of current NXT wrestler Mia Yim.
Below is what the fan tweeted:
“People will pay to see @MiaYim. No one has ever paid a dime to see @TheRealDisco…….ever! He’s a joke and embarrassment to wrestling. That’s why you never held a title for anyone. Ever. How you ever got a job with any promotion is beyond comprehension.”

Dude… he's held titles in WCW. When did you start watching wrestling? He was actually a hilarious character and wrestled just fine. I've watched wrestling for 33 years now (41 years old). Most wrestlers these days don't even HAVE a character. Come on🤷🏾♂️

I don’t think you realize how over disco was on nitro, he got some of the biggest crowed reactions for months just behind the NWO and sting

Disco being over reminds me of Mizdow as the stunt double. Pure passion and believing in the character.

More people paid to see disco than Mia. I don’t even know what show she is on. I’m sure she is really over 🙄

#WcWTvchamp #Hbic He obviously has no clue about wrestling history. Check your facts and leave such hate at the door. Every pro wrestler puts thier body on the line to entertain us fans. Props to Mia and Disco for handling this woth class

Who would pay to see Mia ? Disco part of the actual wrestling boom that sold out arenas even on the tv side!

Disco was more over than 95% of today's talent
— Christopher Lonas (@XtremeEffect) December 8, 2019
Current AEW World Champion Chris Jericho also went on to defend Disco by tweeting the following:
“Totally not true jerkoff. @TheRealDisco was great at what he did and I LOVED working with him. So shut your a** and eff off.”
