Chris Jericho is Professional Wrestling´s David Bowie. One of the all time greats. An absolute legend.

[@davida6919]

Makes sense bc ironically when it comes to reinvention, he’s inspired by David Bowie

[@mikeberg6407]

Flair I'm gonna woo for 30 years. Austin I'm gonna crack the glass for 30 years. Jericho I'm gonna make you remember something new every few years. If he ever retired the lad has a catalogue of greatest hits. I never even watched WCW but played the 64 games and this dude was an instant legend to me and my buddies on his debut. People bring up the rock killing it nowadays but literally none of us thought that watching it at the time.

[@cumexolaf3276]

If Bowie was so smart, how come he's dead? 🎈

[@FireMerkStudios]

⁠@@cumexolaf3276Liver cancer doesn’t care whether you’re an intellectual or not…

[@amc5966]

Bowie is a great analogy. In fact I think Jericho eclipses Bowie in reinventing himself (in relative terms of course).

Jericho has so many good interviews, but this is the one I’m most excited for. Love CVV’s style and the conversations he creates.

Jericho's heel run in 2008-2010 was easily the best version of Jericho we've ever had. As a kid during that time period, I hated him lol but that's what made him a powerhouse heel. He was definitely the best in the world at that time not just on the mic but in the ring. By far the best heel during that time. Dude put on 5 star matches with HBK, Cena and anyone he would get in the ring with. He even had a stellar match with Santino during that time. His ability to always evolve his gimmick and stay relevant is what makes Jericho one of the all time greats.

[@technox8166]

[@bizil100]

Jericho is ABSOLUTELY a living legend in the business. And one of the true GOATs. When it comes to the TOTAL PACKAGE of these attributes at an elite level, he's EASILY among the top 5-6 of all time: Mic Skills Main event IT factor/charisma Babyface Heel Technical Skills Aerial ability I gotta give Macho Man MAJOR CRED for putting this package on the map in the WWF back in the day. HBK, Jericho, Eddie, Angle, Edge, Punk, Danielson, Rollins, etc. came down the pike and were TOTAL PACKAGES of this blueprint as well. They put their own stamp on it. When you think about it, NOT MANY GUYS had this type of blend at an elite level. And NOBODY can f*** with Jericho when it comes to reinventing his persona. And Jericho had the GOAT NIGHT in pro wrestling history in my opinion in terms of actual achievement! Beat Rock and Austin in the same night. Won the WWF and World (WCW) titles in the same night. We never thought we would see somebody holding those two titles at the same time. And Jericho was the first to do it. Around this time, WWE accumulated the greatest roster of all time! So NO WAY Vince puts Jericho in that position IF he wasn't one of the best. Guys who have the attributes I laid out earlier IN SPADES get to the world titles and main events in WWE! Perfect complement to the main event box office brawler legends like Hogan, Austin, Rock, Taker, Cena, Brock, etc. Brawling was those guys bread and butter while on top. The guys like Jericho gave you the VERSATILITY you need in the main event scene of a worldwide wrestling company.

[@sagemodeq544]

Jericho has the best interviews. Great storyteller

[@ChrisVanVliet]

[@kolya_n]

I’m 23, a Chris Jericho’s fan since 2010. In 2023, still have absolutely zero regret of that. True legend. Thanks for the interview!

Chris Jericho is the living definition of what a Rockstar is. I love the guy and is sad and true that people will only 100% recognize and start giving him his flowers after he's gone.

[@johnathanash3910]

Jerichoholic for LIFE! From when I was a child watching my first episode of RAW with my dad, to adulthood where I still keep an eye on his career in AEW

[@richardbrown2334]

The best thing about Jericho, even when he was a mid card guy, he never felt like a mid card guy. Take it back to the year 2000 with the rivalries with the likes of Chris Benoit and Kurt Angle. Jericho being the talker and Benoit and Angle without a doubt the best wrestlers in the company balanced things out. 2003-2005. With Triple H on the top of Raw, Jericho was the heater heel for guys like RVD, Booker T, Kane, Goldberg, Kevin Nash, Shawn Michaels, but his feuds still felt important and one notch away from taking Triple H's spot. Even his rivalry with Christian, a true undercard but also underappreciated talent, his WrestleMania XX match definitely wasn't what he deserved, but you knew he'd be World Champion in the future.

[@kchapo_4202]

Chris Jericho is by far the greatest of our generation. Reinvented himself countless times. Been in every major promotion, excellent on the mic and in the ring

[@Spandau-Filet]

That gratitude question is important to have. It really shines a light on the interviewee. Definitely a light has been shone on Chris Jericho…

[@perceivedvelocity9914]

I'm a life long fan of Jericho. He definitely helped AEW get off of the ground. IMO there were a lot of people who were looking for an alternative to Vince McMahon. AEW was that alternative. Unfortunately AEW has run into a problem. Vince is no longer part of the WWE. Now that Vince is gone the landscape has changed. Also, the situation with Punk split the fan base. I really hope that AEW can get back on track. The WWE is better with competition.

[@SnipingIsFun]

The thing is they aren't fully off the track and they have potential in their roster and what can come from it. Plus who else they hire to come in. Being only 5 years old they have done quite a lot.

Jericho really doesn't get the recognition and respect he deserves. He's always been a great worker, wrestler, and human-being. He is always putting the business first and I really hope he continues working with AEW throughout the remainder of his career because I really feel they needs someone like Jericho to help guide them in the right directions.

Chris Jericho has been in wrestling for as long as I have been alive. Its really crazy. And I have been a fan of his since I first got into wrestling in the late 90s/early 2000s. I would say he is easily one of the greatest of all time given his resume. He really is one of the only few wrestlers to wrestle almost everywhere.

Followed Jericho's whole career and in my opinion his best work was the early years of his WWE career, his matches with Benoit, Guerrero, Angle in that upper midcard role was peak Y2J and very entertaining on the mic, all the respect for having a career thats still going strong 20 years later

As a business owner that took a leap at 35 years old, who’s now about to be 40 and a millionaire. Hes 1000% spot on, you have to take a chance. But then you have to have a plan and go all in. It’s so much sacrifice, so much hard work and so much of just grinding daily. But the reward is incredible. I hope everyone gets to experience it and takes their leap.
