Final Guesses on Chris Jericho's Mystery Tag Team Partner

Tonight's the night we find out who Chris Jericho has chosen to defend the Unified Tag Team Titles with against Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase.

Since Jericho announced the search for a new partner, he's teased the WWE Universe with possibly partners.

Tease #1: Two weeks ago on RAW, Mark Henry entered the ring with Chris Jericho, after announcing the clause granting him a new partner, and put his arm around him.

Pros: Henry's the World Strongest Man, and last year's Night of Champions - he defeated both The Big Show and Kane for the ECW Title.

Cons: Mark Henry has turned face.



Possibility: No Chance in Hell!!!!

Tease #2: After his match against Mark Henry this past Monday, DiBiase and Rhodes edged Jericho on that he still hasn't chosen a tag team partner.

Jericho told them - How do you know my partner isn't Orton?

Story: Since the match between DiBiase and Orton took place, Orton could find a way to punish his lackeys by becoming Jericho's tag team partner - in return Jericho would have to insure that Orton retains in the Triple Threat Match.

Possibility: Highly Unlikely

Tease #3: On Smackdown, Jericho was seen talking to Kane back stage.

Pros: A former WWE and ECW Champion, Kane is also a 9 time Tag Team Champion.

Commonalities: Shared hatred for Rey Mysterio.

Possibility: Interestingly possible.

Tease #4: On the same night, Jericho spoke to The Great Khali.

Pros: Former World Heavyweight Champion and a massive Punjabi Giant.

Cons: Since becoming the Punjabi Playboy - He's turned Face.

Possibility: No Chance in Hell!!!!

These are the choices not mentioned in the WWE:

Christian: Even though he is a face on ECW, he’s been feuding with Tommy Dreamer and seems easily able to turn heel. Plus, he's also a 9 time tag team champion - one of them held with Chris Jericho.

Possibility: Likely

Dolph Ziggler: Quickly becoming a star in the WWE, the two have teamed up together before taking on Jeff Hardy and Rey Mysterio.

Cons: He has his first title match on the same night Jericho defends the titles. Ziggler also has a steady girlfriend, Maria, who unknowingly helps during his matches.

Possibility: Hopeful

CM Punk: His soap box preaching of his Straight-Edge Lifestyle, and attack against the WWE Universe for using drugs and drinking alcohol - would make a great team mate for Jericho. Together they can parade around the WWE, as the Unified Tag Team Champions, claiming to be better than everyone else.

Pros: Even though Punk cost Jericho and Ziggler the tag team match, he did it to harm Jeff, thus allowing Jericho to attack Hardy with the Code Breaker into the Walls of Jericho.

Commonalities: Both have a hatred for hypocrites.

Possibility: Most Likely
