AND HE GOT A FUCKING CLIPBOARD OVER! say what you want Shawn couldn't pull that off (DX made dick jokes didn't have to try too hard there)

I guarantee that if HBK came back he could get clicking a pen over. He just wouldn't need to. For the record, I
like Jericho more than Michaels, but HBK would save the WWE if he returned, which is something that Jericho could never really deliver.
As for promos, while I know where you are coming from, and Jericho is a "natural" on the mic, I think the great HBK promos are arguably better than most of Jericho's work by a mile. How about that segment in Montreal? Or that one where he slowly turned heel against Daniel Bryan? Jericho is probably a better
talker, in the most natural sense, but when you strip away the catchphrases and return the promo to its most genuine form -- talking people into a building -- I think HBK saying "The Showstopper is going to be turning up this Sunday" is going to get more people buzzed than anything Jericho could say.
