Chris Jericho Suspended - Full Story
Taken from TMZ -
A WWE event in Brazil came to a screeching halt Thursday evening … when local law enforcement stopped a live match and threatened to arrest Chris Jericho for desecrating the Brazilian flag.
It all went down during a match between Jericho and C.M. Punk — who was proudly waving the flag in the ring. Jericho took the flag away, crumpled it up and kicked the flag out of the ring … and that’s when police stepped in and put a stop to the event.
We’re told Jericho was informed that desecrating the national flag is a crime in Brazil … punishable by incarceration.
Cops gave Jericho an option — apologize to the arena … or go to jail. Chris chose the former … grabbing the mic and telling the crowd he immediately regretted his actions. Cops allowed the event to continue.
Sources connected to the WWE tell TMZ … the flag stunt was NOT planned or approved by WWE officials. -

not buying it. If it's a crime, then it's a crime, there's not apologizing for stealing or murdering someone. Not saying that YJ2 should be locked up, but I'm just laughing at they gave him an option for a crime that's on their law books.
If I were to go to a foriegn country and squat ? on their flag, I'd be locked up with no option of apologizing.
Either way, it's a way to get Jericho off TV. The offense had to be serious enough to justify the indefinite suspension, which they will say will run through his contract and he'll have to renegotiate a new contract to return. -

Jericho is one of the greatest heels -

Shawn Michaels disrespected a Canadian Flag worse than what Jericho did.
