Somewhere in East Tennessee, they're still waiting for Jericho to return.

:)

Aww, you mean no more Thrillseekers ? Well, they sure didn't set the territory on fire. Lance is shit on the mic, and not much better in the ring (great athlete, but he couldn't do much more than jumping around at this point, he looked awkward doing simple basic stuff. I guess working in Japan helped him quite abit, he was better than this when he came back in ECW, although not that good either)

Jericho's gotten better on the stick, and actually sounds semi-sincere. Lance can't remember if Jericho is his brother or his partner, and is going to wrestle singles for the next 6-8 weeks. And with that, the Thrillseekers come to an anticlimactic end. Two whitebread Canadians seem like they would have been just as natural enemies for the Gangstas as the southern redneck rock 'n rollers.

Jericho says that he broke his arm in a motorcycle accident just prior to the Night of Legends and the doctors have said that he can’t wrestle for six to eight weeks. That night they had a point to prove to Jim Cornette, to the Heavenly Bodies, to the fans and to themselves, that they had the guts and fortitude to come out on top, and they did, but by wrestling with a broken arm he’s paying for it now. Lance says that he will be wrestling in singles action for now until his partner is healthy again.

 

And so ends The Thrillseekers time in Smoky Mountain Wrestling. Considering the hype and push they got they have to be seen as a huge failure, although it would have been interesting to see where they would’ve headed had Jericho not got injured. My best guess is a prolonged feud with the Bodies while the The Gangstas are feuding with Rock & Roll Express, and once that was over they would have transitioned to The Gangstas before defeating them for the titles.
