I would love to see Jericho as a fighting babyface champion who defends the title against everyone from Dolph Ziggler to Randy Orton to Tyson Kidd. Jericho could breathe so much life into a World Title scene. Heath Slater could interrupt a Jericho promo one night, point out that he beat him once on NXT and make a WWE Title challenge. Jericho could then beat Slater before Drew McIntyre makes a challenge immediately after -- "I'm the Chosen One! You brag about beating three Hall of Famers at WrestleMania XXV. How about you beat me right now?" Jericho then works with McIntyre and beats him with a Codebreaker out of nowhere. Jinder Mahal then gets on the mic and says that if Jericho has got one more match left in him, he cut his teeth in Canada where Jericho was trained and he believes he's got the secret to beating Jericho. Y2J then wins his third match when he manages to roll up Mahal.
It would instantly have me care far more about all three members of 3MB. Totally random example, I know, but Jericho as champ could be gold.
