Former WWE superstar Chris Jericho is returning to the SyFy channel, but not for WWE. Entertainment Weekly announced on Tuesday that Jericho will be hosting the Robot Combat League, which premieres February 26, 2013.

SyFy president Mark Stern told EW, “It has always been our desire — and it’s really come around perennially — to update and do Battle Bots for the new century. Can we do Real Steel? Are we at a place where you can do real bipedal robots? Every time we tried to to do it [the project] was stymied by the technology.”

The league will have 12 teams, each consisting of a fighter (the “robo-jockey”) and a robotics engineer (the “robo-tech”). The fighters and techs are from all different backgrounds, including an Olympic athlete, a National Guard helicopter pilot, a race car drive and Amanda Lucas, MMA fighter daughter of of George Lucas (“Star Wars”).

Fights consist of three rounds, with the winning team advancing to the next round. The winning team gets $100,000.

Chris Jericho will set up each fight and provide play-by-play commentary.

Kinda get the feeling that when it comes to hosting gigs, Jericho says yes before they even tell him what the show's about.

In this economy Jericho knows a job is a job plus dem Fozzy checks probably don't be alot of money :russ:

Plus Jericho knows if the show he's on is shytty its gonna get cancelled soon.


On another note... first Rock'em Sock'em Robots the movie (aka Real Steel) now Rock'em Sock'em Robots the Series? I'm waiting for someone to make the reality show about who's the best sugeon and call the show "Operation"... jericho probably will host that too :russ:
