Willow Nightingale Says Rivalry With Kris Statlander Allows Her To Process Violent, Aggressive Feelings

In an interview with TVInsider.com to promote the 2024 AEW All In PPV event, Chris Jericho discussed his Learning Tree gimmick…. “Every time I switch up characters it’s because I know it’s time. There was some weird internet vitriol of angry people yelling at me to retire. I thought, ‘Why don’t I embrace that and lean into it?’ For those who know, you know. It made those people mad. Others thought it was clever. That lasted about two weeks and it became this new character. People got into the story we were telling. It became another era in Jericho. It has worked quite well. I was very sarcastic in the beginning with a certain cadence I was speaking. Then I changed it again to be more serious. Characters are the most important thing in wrestling as are stories. I think the Hook storyline that has been going on for the last six months has been a great one with twists and turns.”
