Chris Jericho was compared to two great basketball players.
On the June 12 episode of AEW Dynamite, Big Bill welcomed everyone to TV Time with The Learning Tree. He introduced Chris Jericho was the Socrates of Pro Wrestling, the Guru of Giving Back, and the Michael Jordan of Michael Jordans. Jericho came out and criticized the Des Moines crowd about the way they made corn, saying that it didn't work for him, brother.
HEY GUYS! It’s time to sit under “The Learning Tree” with Chris Jericho!

Jericho brought out Private Party (Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen). He complimented the duo but noted that they were not winning because their fundamentals were unsound. Jericho criticized their training and said that they didn't even climb the top rope properly. Kassidy suggested that Jericho should teach them. He said that he was a legend and an OG. Kassidy said that some people may call him the Caitlin Clark of AEW.
Jericho offered to throw up a three-pointer as he prepared to climb the top rope and show Private Party the proper technique. Kassidy and Quen thanked Jericho for the lesson before they taught him a lesson as they attacked him. Private Party then brawled with Jericho, Big Bill, and Bryan Keith. The duo escaped, leaving The Learning Tree furious.
What sort of advice does "The Learning Tree" have for #PrivateParty?
