*The stage is set for the beginning of Monday Night Nitro. The camera shows a man walking through the halls of the backstage corridor, the camera focused on the boots walking forward. All of a sudden, another person shows up, again the camera only focused on ground level.*
Superstar: Oh my God.....It's you! I thought you were......
???: Retired? Soary kid, it's not exactly time for the Best in the World At What He Does to hang up his boots yet.......I have some business to take care of.
*The man walks forward and enters into the "Gorilla Position", about to enter the arena, but not before saying.......*
???: It is time to save.........WCW.
*The camera quickly switches back to Heenan and Tenay as they ramble on.*
Heenan: ......I hate you, Mike. I swear to God, the next time I hear, "What the hell is so-and-so doing in the....."
*All the lights in the arena suddenly shut off, with Heenan quickly being silenced. The crowd awaits in anticipation of what's to come next. All of a sudden, a figure appears....*
Heenan: DON'T even think about it, Mike.
*The titantron lights up with a countdown from 5.....*
*The crowd is on fire as Chris Jericho turns around, pumped up by the adrenaline that the WCW Universe feeds him.*
Tenay: WHAT THE HELL IS CHRIS JERICHO DOING IN THE IMP-
*The sound of headphones being thrown and screaming can be heard in the background as Jericho makes his way to the ring. He screams "COME ON BABAY" before sliding under the bottom rope into the ring. He demands a mic from the ring announcer, and snatches it of off his hands. Jericho, with a smirk, brings the mic up to his mouth.*
Chris Jericho: Ladies and gentlemen........Welcome to NITRO........IS.......JERICHO! Yes, my Jericholics, what you've heard over the past few months is true: Chris Jericho is back in WCW. But you may ask yourself: Why? You see, after failing to dismantle Rise from the inside, after failing to capture the Intercontinental Championship from Rikishi, I came to a realization that I was not happy with how I "retired." You see, I never got to settle the score with a certain WCW Superstar, a man that, as you people might know, just so happens to also call himself the "Best in the World." In case if you couldn't get the hint, the man I am talking about goes by the name of C.....M......Punk. While I have faced Punk plenty of times in the past, I have also never managed to actually beat him. That's going to change really quickly.
Heenan: Yeah, right! Punk is the best in the business today, no doubt!
Chris Jericho: You call yourself the true leader of RISE? That's strange.......The last time I saw you in RISE, you were just like the Robin to Batman, the Scrappy Doo to the Scooby Doo, just a sidekick. You were insignificant, refused to even be given a chance to face Road Dogg way back at Slamboree. They chose Ziggler over you. I can only imagine the disappointment that you felt that night....Hurts, doesn't it? But hey, you're with Ziggler now and you guys are going to capture the Tag Team titles! And while you just might be able to do that, there's one thing that you will not do again, and that is beating me. So I am issuing a challenge, Phil. Me against you: For the ti-
*Jericho stops in his tracks as he witnesses Bobby Heenan get up from his seat with a mic in his hand.*
Tenay: Bobby, what the hell are you doing? Come back here before you get hurt!
Heenan: I'm "soary", Chris, there will be none of that here. CM Punk has better things to do than to beat you......again. Let's face the facts: You're old and washed up. Shouldn't you be playing for your mediocre band, or hosting another TV show about fighting robots? It's fairl-
Chris Jericho: WOULD YOU PLEASE.......SHUT! THE HELL! UP!
*Jericho smiles as the crowd cheers, Heenan is clearly irritated.*
Chris Jericho: So maybe I missed a few things while I was gone.....Since when were you labelled as CM Punk's official ass-kisser? As a matter of fact, you seem to be the official ass-kisser for every single person that these people hate! I'm not so sure what the whole sheboygan is all about, you're essentially spitting on the face of each of these guys every single night, you're too hard on them Bobby. Actually, now that I think about it, I don't think that this was the proper career path for you. However, as the generous fellow that I am, I have a few job suggestions: Janitor, McDonald's worker, Garbage man, street performer, meter maid, you could also be a walking billboard that says: "I am an assclown and I am proud!" Heenan, nobody in the WCW Universe likes you, and half of the WCW roster also despises you. You continually bully Mike Tenay every single week, as if he's some sort of a toy. You belittle every single guy who's earned their accomplishments instead of cheating to get them. Let me tell you something, assclown: You had better stop acting like a kissass, take your seat, and do your damn job instead of trying to ruin my night. Do you understand what I am saying to you right now? Don't make me step outside of this ring, Bobby. You know what I can do to you. I wouldn't push my luck if I were you...
Tenay: Speaking of doing things to people, I watched the news last night and apparently somebody got ra- Bobby, what are you doing?
*Heenan refuses to sit down, he gets in the ring, goes up to Jericho's face, and starts yelling at him with several profanities and other things that he wouldn't say on the mic. Jericho chuckles, then knocks Heenan out with a Codebreaker.*
Tenay: Oh my God, Jericho just hit him with the Codebreaker! Hey, that means I don't have to deal with Heenan for a while.....Go Jericho Go!
*The crowd goes nuts as Jericho picks up the mic again.*
Chris Jericho: As I was saying......CM Punk: I know you're watching this. I am issuing a challenge to you, Punk. Anytime, any place, any stipulation, the choice is yours. I can smell your fear from here...You're deathly afraid, because you know that Y2J, The Ayatollah of Rock and Rollah, The Best in the World At What He Does, has come back and after I am done with you. You, Bobby Heenan, the WCW Locker Room, the WWF Locker Room, the cities, the states, the countries, the continents, the world, the universe, the stars, the solar system.......Will never..........EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR BE THE SAME! A-GANE!
Tenay: Well, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen: Chris Jericho is back, and he's going after CM Punk! On top of that, he's also knocked out my broadcast partner, probably for the better!
*Jericho slides out of the ring, walking backwards to the ramp, arm raised in victory. WIth a smirk, he leaves into the backstage halls. As a WCW.com exclusive, a cameraman catches up with Jericho and asks him a few questions.*
Interviewer: Chris, after a few months, you've returned to WCW, how does it feel?
Chris Jericho: It feels great coming back, I mean, we've been seeing some guys leaving recently and the roster has suffered as a result. Not only did I come back for the Jericholics out there, but I also came back to revitalize the roster, give it some of that Jericho flavor. Besides, the WCW roster needs more Canadians to properly represent the country that's above the U.S.A.
Interviewer: You've mentioned specifically going after CM Punk, but the fans want to know: What are your plans after Punk?
Chris Jericho: That's a good question, actually. You see, when I initially came here to WCW all those years ago, I captured two championships: The coveted Cruiserweight Championship and the World Television Championship. Since Eric Bischoff has since eliminated the Cruiserweight Championship due to his blatant ignorance of the weight class, what better way to pay tribute to the fans than to recapture the TV title? To the man holding the TV title, whether it be Rey Mysterio, CM Punk, or any other assclown after the PPV, let me tell you this: Your days as champion are numbered, because the Best in the World At What He Does is back, and I will not be stopped until that title is around my waist. Good luck....
Interviewer: Thank you, Chris. Hopefully we'll see you in a match soon.
*The segment fades to black.*

+5 SP to Jericho
What a debut promo, and it wasn't of novel length so I could actually read it! Just kidding, a great way to debut Jericho, instantly trying to start up a feud with Punk. Nice use of Jericho's catchphrases as well, I'm excited to see what you can do with him.
