WWE has released a new “Drink It In, Man” T-Shirt for Chris Jericho. Jericho has noted in the past that he’s Old School and doesn’t believe in heels having merchandise.
Jericho didn’t wear this T-Shirt while coming out for his match with Sami Zayn at Clash of Champions 2016. However, he did sport a Kevin Owens T-Shirt at the end of the PPV when he came out to help Owens (maybe just to put over Owens). Below is Y2J’s new T-Shirt:
