Chris Jericho ended up making his offer to HOOK and the proposal could be a learning experience for both fighters.

During the 3/27 episode of AEW Dynamite, a backstage segment featured both HOOK and Jericho being interviewed by Renee Paquette. There Jericho reiterated how impressed he was with HOOK's work in the ring as he and Renee both said that HOOK defeating Jericho last week on Dynamite was the biggest of his career.

Jericho then mentioned in his 33 years of pro wrestling he never managed anybody in his life, but he was so impressed with HOOK's work in the ring that he'd be willing to give Taz's son any advice at reaching that next level of super stardom. Jericho even said that he sees a future AEW World Champion in HOOK.

HOOK appreciated Jericho's offer, but did say he knows who Jericho is, meaning he's aware of his track record. All that considered, he'd love to take advice from Jericho because he is Chris Jericho. Jericho agreed and the two fist-bumped.

The FTW Champion did put on quite a showing against Jericho as he basically took 'Lionheart' to suplex city before he ultimately secured the win via pinfall, which happened to be HOOK's first pinfall win in AEW.

Jericho won't be the first wrestling legend to take HOOK under his wing. Obviously being the son of Taz, HOOK had an early tutelage when it comes to the squared circle, but he also received the experience of teaming with Rob Van Dam in AEW.
