The build and match with Punk was pretty good but he really should’ve called it quits after the Streak ended. He still had tons of good will left and even if the match sucked it would’ve been understood why since he got hurt during it. But he just kept going, and going, and going
and it only got worse over time
Yup and I agree but this was before he actually retired. Since he retired he has stuck true to it and has not tried to come back. So far that's retiring gracefully.
This guy fukking sucks
What don't people understand about actually retiring and thinking someone should retire? He didn't retire until Survivor Series so anything he did before then has nothing to do with retiring gracefully because he wasn't retired.
"Retiring gracefully" is retiring before you're washed, breh. You're the one not understanding.
at this retirement debate. Terry Funk and Flair have made wrestling "retirements" into jokes
You have to retire first. So by going what you are saying and many others, Jericho is not retiring gracefully.
Yes. We clown him all the time.
clearly had to take a shyt
He had like 4 more matches after that one tho
Except he was bad, he knew he was bad, but kept going despite that.
People brought up Stone Cold and HBK (even tho HBK did that Crown Jewel match) as examples of staying retired. My example was The Undertaker because so far it's true. He has stayed retired and has not tried to come out of retirement to have one more match.
