Brian Myers comments on Chris Jericho using "The Learning Tree" in AEW.
TNA star Brian Myers previously led a stable named The Learning Tree in IMPACT in 2021-2022. He has since become part of The System, and he holds the TNA World Tag Team Championship with Eddie Edwards. In recent weeks, Chris Jericho has been calling himself The Learning Tree in AEW, and Big Bill has aligned with him. Many fans have pointed out the overlap with Brian Myers' group.
Speaking with Bill Pritchard of WrestleZone, Brian Myers was asked about Chris Jericho using "The Learning Tree" and whether he had tried to trademark it.
“Here‘s my thoughts on that. When that was said or whatever on television, I was on a family vacation, about as disconnected from wrestling and my phone as I’ve been in years, having a wonderful time. My timeline and mentions blew up, and I couldn’t have given a fucking shit about it, so there’s your answer. I don’t give a shit. I never trademarked it. If Chris wants it, he can have it. We have the same fucking trademark lawyer. He can have at it. The Learning Tree in TNA Wrestling was super fun and something I thought was really growing and clicking and being a very entertaining part of the show. But ultimately, it doesn’t matter to me because The System right now is literally the biggest thing on the show, so what do I care about The Learning Tree?" Myers said.
Myers then reiterated that The Learning Tree in TNA was fun, but he had moved on.
