NFL’s Lamar Jackson got called out by the legendary Chris Jericho, and he’s loving it!

On this past Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, Chris Jericho was in the ring giving a promo, where he would call several different kinds of champions. After calling out professional wrestlers, Jericho then shifted his attention to a particular football player.

Being in Baltimore, Maryland for the evening, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson would be in attendance, and Jericho would take advantage, calling out the Louisville alum and saying that he could whoop his a**.

Jackson would speak about the call out while talking to the press:

“I got called out. I wasn’t thinking he was going to call me out. You know, Chris Jericho called me out. I didn’t really hear what he said at first and then they told me. I’m like ‘this man is crazy’. I enjoyed it though because growing up I was a huge fan of wrestling.”

Chris Jericho has been on a roll as of late with defending his Ring Of Honor (ROH) World Championship, winning multiple title defenses, including against Bandido and the most recent being Colt Cabana, who would come in a mystery opponent.

Lamar Jackson and his Baltimore Ravens have also been on a roll, currently tallied at a 5-3 record and placed first in the AFC North division. The Ravens play the New Orleans Saints in their next game this Monday night.

In other Chris Jericho-related news, the Fozzy singer has been featured in a new horror movie, “Terrifer 2,” that’s been accused of making viewers of the movie puke.
