Chris Jericho's Quotes
- An olympic [hero] with no neck, and a giant with no testicles!" In reference to Test: "The jerkle of the squared circle!" To Chyna in reference to her being Intercontinental Champion: "An idea more ridiculously enhanced than your breasts are!
- Welcome to RAW is Jericho!
- It will never EEEEVER happen again.
- (To Viscera) Even though you look like the lovechild of Fat Albert and Mr. T, I will fight you tonight. I'd really like to get my hands on Eddie Guerrero and that SHANK Chyna, but instead I will fight you, who is bigger than both Eddie, and Chyna, and their extended families, and their living room furniture COMBINED!
- (To Shane McMahon) Every day you come out here, these people call you that word that rhymes with wussy...(AUDIENCE: PUSSY!)...oh yeah, that's it!
Interesting Facts about Chris Jericho
- Also known as Moongoose McQueen, he is the lead singer for the rock group Fozzy.
- Said two of his favorite people to wrestle are Chris Benoit and Triple H of WWE.
- Won the WWE Heavyweight Title from Triple H on April 17, 2000, but was stripped of the title (and the match was stricken from the record) 15 minutes later.
- Son of hockey player Ted Irvine.
- Was voted "Manitoba's Sexiest Man" in a poll in a Canadian newspaper "The Winnipeg Sun".
- He wears lifts, so he's actually only about 5' 10", which is why he says that he is the shortest WWF champion of all time. Daniel Bryan (Bryan Danielson) is officially the same height, but doesn't look it because he and Jericho have different body types.
- First started his musical career with fellow wrestler Lenny "Dr. Luther" Olson in a Calgary speed metal band
- Although he wasn't born there, he was raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and was married there.
- During the 2002 Rangers Superskate on January 19, 2002, Chris Jericho was attacked by his own father at Madison Square Garden because Chris and his father were competing on different teams.
- He is the ninth and last wrestler to have held both the WWE World Heavyweight Title and the WCW World Heavyweight Title, after Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Diesel/Kevin Nash, the Rock (Dwayne Johnson), the Giant/the Big Show (Paul Wight) and Kurt Angle. However, Hogan, Savage, Flair, Hart, Nash and the Big Show all won the WCW World Heavyweight Title when WCW was an active promotion, while Rock, Jericho and Angle all won it in 2001 after WWE had purchased WCW.
- He and Lance Storm were two of only four of their original class of 18 to finish training at Stu Hart's Dungeon Wrestling School.
- Took his stage name "Jericho" from the album "Walls of Jericho" from the German Power Metal band Helloween.
- Before succeeding in professional wrestling, Jericho was a bouncer and a model in Canada.
- Won his first WWF European Title at WrestleMania 2000 only to lose it the very next night on RAW to Eddie Guerrero.
- Aside from his wrestling career, he appears regularly on VH1 shows like "I Love the '90s" and "Best Week Ever".
- Says that Shawn Michaels was a huge role model for him early in his career. Jericho actually tried to dress and wrestle like Shawn did when he was one half of the Rockers (with Marty Jannetty). Later, these two faced each other at WrestleMania XIX, in one of the best matches of 2003.
- During the summer of 1999, a millennium countdown appeared on WWF TV. People noticed it really didn't countdown to the Millenium, but instead August 9, 1999 at 10:00 PM. At that hour during a promo by the Rock, Chris Jericho made his debut in WWF, and it has been touted as the best debut in WWE's history.
- Was the first and only person to capture all 5 of the WWE Championships (WWE World Title, Intercontinental Title, Tag Team Titles, European Title and the Hardcore Title) until John Bradshaw Layfield (John Layfield).
- Holds the record for capturing the most WWE Intercontinental Title reigns (eight times).
- Chris Jericho and his band Fozzy performed their first ever UK Gig on February 10, 2005 at Rock City in Nottingham. In true rock star fashion, Jericho was 40 minutes late for the show.
