WCW: Chris Jericho Explains How Konnan Screwed Him

[dentalun]

jericho and his fake wrestlers aka konnan,goodberg (in wcw,and wwf remember gildberg)

[dentalun]

ralphus for wwe hall of fame 2012

[bibby42]

WCW had so much raw talent back in the day. Chris Jericho, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn, Disco Inferno and so many others!

[BlackSabbathory]

This Pearl Jam sounding theme was always my favorite Jericho song.

[bibby42]

@BlackSabbathory WCW had some really cool themes too! remember DDP's Nirvana sounding theme?

[BlackSabbathory]

@bibby42 Indeed! And Raven's. 

[peterp21]

@bibby42 Don't forget about Booker T, Alex Wright, Rick Martel, Chavo Gurerro, Juventud Gurerra, Rey Misterio, and Ultimo Dragon. The TV Title/Cruiserweight Division was amazing in 1997/98.

[derek221122]

jericho's got some sweet music here. definately an awesome theme.

[DETROIT2MILWAUKEE]

lmao rico suave and geraldo

[JruHoliday]

This is the Jericho I always liked... man always had me laughing!

[sgtraytango]

shame the sound quality sucks on this video, it was and still is my fave Jericho promo ever

[WCW4fuckingeva]

RALPHUS ruled lol tose were the days

Poor RALPHUS Jericho treated that guy so badly lol

[Sychodave0989]

Someone get those 3 clowns out of here... where's the damn net? Lol jk , on a serious note - Jericho is my favorite wrestler.

[PS3GodsGift2Gamers]

Ralphus=Einstein guys a genius!

[PainVsPerfect]

Steel shovel? U MEAN PLASTIC SHOVEL

[TheRottweiler]

TWISTED STEEL AND SEXAPPEAL --- RALPHUS YOU KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT

Ralphus*agree*

[MrWalmartcup]

[SephirothAssassin]

i miss ralphus :( ralphus for wwe chairman lmaooo

[LostRealist86]

Jericho has some of the best promos. Even now his promos are better then any others in the PG era.

[paulspagetti]

i love this chris jericho entrance music hearing that just took me back to 2 97

[Bucsfan818]

Jericho is a role model!!!!!!!

[SuperThegreatone23]

man what the hell is jericho winning ROLF

[SuperThegreatone23]

see this os wht i hate about wwcw is that they always talked about the nwo flair sting whenever good talents like jericho benoit guerrero and many more were disrespected and misused. tony should just shut his mouth and stop kissing the nwo's ass.

[grungy72]

Ralphus was so amazing.

[oysta187]

Ralphus!

[jliller]

Would've been great if they'd gotten Mini Konnan from AAA for this skit.

[RizoSaysAha]

Fucking hell this crowd are dumb, just sit there looking gormless throughout this whole piece of genius.

[hoaxmind53081]

WWE needs Ralphus

[dannielpreto]

Konan was over lol, again WCW and wrestling, show that they don't care about what the fans want.

[shootbinary]

Strong hints at gayness in this incarnation of the Jericho character...

[Darkyodajedi]

This one Jericho segment is better than anything cena has ever done...

Ralphus > cena

[ColorsBright]

@Darkyodajedi Ralphus >>> WWE

[psychosissafari]

sweet boots on the paragon of virtue

[reese0284]

What's up with those boots? lol

[Icupwhile69ing]

@reese0284 thats what im saying,Why the pointy boots?!

[zunfren]

oh man Jericho was a talent. I miss the old WCW days

[MattsKickz89]

ralphus here is more over then 90% percent of wwe's active roster today

[MobKnowledge]

Jericho > Costner

[ULTRADONIS]

shut up shavonie and talk about jericho damnit!!

[krazygreen]

I wonder how much crap the boys in the back gave Ralphus, honestly, I'm sure Nash and Steiner were complete pricks.

[krazygreen]

Baby Huey lookalike Konnan, LMAO!

[edenfire]

RAPHUS. PEN. NAO.

[RJ8812]

lol Jericho's cowboy boots

[zzDzCzCzz]

Chris Jericho could have taken WCW to new heights. He and other young stars could have breathed new life into WCW. But Hogan, Bishoff, Nash and the other behind the scene's politics kept other wrestler's down to make them and only them look good. And slowly WCW died. Once all the oldies left they had no one promising left then Russo t-bagged the remains. WWF/E played their cards right and that's why they're still around.

[WrestlingBC12]

@zzDzCzCzz They're not around anymore because the company that owned them merged with another company that didn't want them around anymore. Even if they improved they still would have been sold because the company Turner merged with simply did not want pro wrestling. If it was as simple as the quality of the show sucking and people tuning out, WWE would have been gone around 2003ish

[brocklesnar97]

screw michaels anddisel jerico anmd ralpus were the SHIT !

[azapro911]

Chris Jericho is all class. See his neat haircut and his crack security team. :-)

[Nahuvideo]

Ric Flair... Sting... Jericho... Malenko And Many Many MANY More...

WCW Had EVERYTHING And They Still Screwed it UP :(

[xxCMxxPunk]

LMAO 5:51!!

[chrisbg99]

My god, Jericho's evidence is air tight. Konnan should be ashamed for the travesty of justice he inflicted on our hero, our Role Model, Chris Jericho!

[MexicanSeadude]

"sporting the newest in ridiculous fashion, for gosh sakes pal!...pull up your draws!"

there is only one chris jericho lmao

[CoryTheRaven]

I miss this Jericho, when he was hungry and had to work to get noticed. 

[hoagly]

All hail Ralphus!

[SoldatCrinale]

please i want Jericho to use that nickname today. The Paragon of Virtue. I dont mind the new Jericho gimmick WWE puts him through because he showcases his superior in-ring ability...but back in WCW, no one can cut in-ring shoots like these. Jericho is just way too funny and way too witty.

[junmafia]

there is 2 konan fan who dislike this video ;p

[giantsfan245]

jericho's wearing cowbow boots that don't quite cover his tights....sounds like a rib to me

[symbiote24]

RALPHUS PEN NOW

[briangavemeherpes]

Ralphus was a blatant ploy by Jericho to use sex to further his gimmick

[OCcrazy1]

did that really happen in the match

[Ari721]

Jericho's outfit is hilarious

[CarterDempseyFairy87]

thanks for uploading this i love to watch older Jericho footage and his promos are really good,this is so funny! Jericho is the best in sooo many ways!!

~Beth J

xoxoxoxo

[bibby42]

@CarterDempseyFairy87 there haven't been too many pro wrestlers with his kind of mic skills and in ring saviness.

[ramennoodlechef]

Damn I want Jericho's shirt.

[CarterDempseyFairy87]

@ramennoodlechef How about you take Jericho's shirt and i take the man himself!!*giggle* Chris Jericho is the sexiest man alive :)

~Beth J

xoxoxoxo

[RMilvae]

Wrestling needs Ralphus...Imagine a reunion in WWE...I watch that shit.

[youthgroupboy123]

hey can someone find and upload konnan versus chris jericho for the wcw television championship??? if so that would be great!

[bsg0813]

@youthgroupboy123 just download the torrent if it happens on ppv.... or find rapidshare link, if you find when it happened i will give you a link

[lordmurraycl]

thank you for the upload

[luistownmassacre]

lol look at his boots

[RyanIsOffended]

@luistownmassacre

LOL, I noticed that at the very end... What the hell?

[dirtyoldhugh]

"Ralphus, pen! Now!!"

[neukfaz]

WTF @ 3:38 random mascot,lmao

[TheGreatGarfield]

@neukfaz I believe that was "Wildcat" !? someone can correct me on that.

[ScoldieMac]

Is jericho wearing cowboy boots?

[SebastianSlasherMP]

Love the video but hate it because I can only hear it in one side of my headphones!!!!

[Thumper17]

I love Jerichos tights. 80's tie dye PJ's.

[DJglasgowSon]

all those jericho haters need to pull their heads out of their asses. jericho was a star in ecw. he then went to wcw and had some of the best promos ever. then, sick of wcw management's bs, he went to wwe, where he was a top face right away, and i now a top heel, lauded by bret hart, shawn michaels, the undertaker, flair, and others as one of the best ever. if jericho sucks, you're just retarded.

[SyxxPAC228]

He must've pulled the shovel out of his asshole.

[TheMadStork83]

Lol, Where did Ralphus come from and where did he go? Him & Jericho had great chemistry together.

[mrtrin]

@TheMadStork83

I think he was one of the truck drivers that would move the rings.

[WarriorSmurf]

@mrtrin He was. I saw him walking around outside of the arena after a Nitro taping here in Baltimore and got an autograph, lol. The otherJPS guy, the Jericholic Ninja, is actually his son, lol.

[DJglasgowSon]

@TheMadStork83

what do you mean? ralphus hardly ever did or said anything. jericho is so charismatic he could have great chemistry with a brick.

[TheMadStork83]

@DJglasgowSon I simply mean what I said. But going into further detail, the fact that Ralphus was a bodyguard for Jericho at that time was hilarious and helped put Jericho even more over then he already was as a cocky, arogant jerk. All Ralphus did was basically...nothing. It was also hilarious at the same time when you see a bodyguard you see a 6'7 300 pound muscle man and not some 5'8 oversized hillbilly hick who is missing a few teeth like Ralphus.

[DJglasgowSon]

@TheMadStork83 i agree i guess. i remember jericho's hilarious goldberg/greenberg promos and tshirts, and those promos wouldn't have been quite as hilarious without ralphus and his gut hanging out. besides, the bodyguard angle for a heel has been done to death, primarily by shawn michaels, ralphus was kind of a parody of diesel/sid in that he was a joke, and jericho idolized shawn michaels.

[ragweedfan86]

LOL @ his Diamond Studd reference

[TheGatekeeper7thSeal]

Luger was a legit athelete, who was recruitted by the legendary Joe Paterno. He might of been a jackass at times, but the man had charisma and played the heel as good as anyone.

[ABK209]

lol....rico suave....lol....greatest latino rapper since Gerardo....lol

[charismatic9904]

why dont u 2 just buttfuck and get it over with.....to say luger wasnt over is stupid. jericho was and is a draw...luger in late 96-all of 97 was more over than everyone except maybe rock and austin and sting. whoever says otherwise is a freakin idiot

[jcc2k8]

Ralphus carried WCW by his sheer greatness alone. Ralphus = EPIC Awesomeness

[donovanjd3]

this is what made WCW great during it's run at the top. WCW should have realized this is the stuff that the fans tuned in for. Not Lex Lugar vs the Giant, etc.

WCW's mid card was the show.

[MrGlasspider]

@donovanjd3 Are you shure? Then why the crowd is not in jerichoholic t-shirts?WCW's mid card was the show for you.

[donovanjd3]

@MrGlasspider when you watched Nitro there were a lot Jericho shirts that Luger or Giant shirts. Jericho was over with the fans big time. Even Disco Inferno was more over then Luger. Luger was just pushed by management because of his body. They pushed him forever, and it never worked.

[MrGlasspider]

@donovanjd3 Well, I'm not a fan of Luger but did you see the pop luger got every monday in wcw before his title match with hogan? I mean, even in wwe Jericho is nowhere near Rock or So Called Steve Austin etc. cause he's not a big draw, never was and never will be.

[sayanroy36]

@MrGlasspider

if you hold austin and rock as the parameters of getting over, you will have a very small club i can assure you

despite being held down, jericho was over in wcw with his funniest skits,

& in wwe he got more over than 90% of the roster can ever dream of.

he's not a big draw!!!! is just a joke as right now 4 or 5 wrestlers in wwe sells more than him.

sure he isn't rockyh or austin, but wthen again, who is?

[Ransik]

@donovanjd3 Luger > Batista. At least Luger could perform his 3 moves correctly. ;)

[1fletch]

Chris Jericho is too legit to quit

[Robohump]

@jaymr That was the official end of WCW. When Jericho and Giant left to WWE for less money than WCW was offering.

[charismatic9904]

@Robohump ....giant was good in wcw. but has sucked since day 1 in wwe

[newfyintoronto]

i'm a jericha holic

[guyinlosangeles]

Schiavone: "We'll talk about Flair and especially the nWo....we'll talk about anything except what we're watching. Welcome to WCW!!!"

Complete idiots.

[EvodiusTheophile]

I love how the mock connan was aboout 90% accurate in relation to the actual connan!

[Utheused4]

Yeah they did in a lot of Brooklyn Brawler's matches.

[deveryday1]

he reared back and he HIT the paragon of virtue right in the face! LMFAO!

[duckmonkey0]

Jericho had to fire Ralphus because he was turning too much into a babyface.

[JoeyCalzaghe]

just by interrupting the rock in his debut, WWE gave Jericho a bigger push than WCW ever did.

[JoeyCalzaghe]

This video shows the best and worst of WCW. The best as they let Jericho just do his thing. Hes standing in the ring, being somewhat racist, with a fat retard looking guy, just going off for 7 minutes (something they could do with their 3 hours). But the worst, 1. Because Jericho is feuding with Conan, he shoulda been feuding with someone better. 2. The fans are just standing there waiting for NWO stuff to happen. No push+making WCW only about one feud screwed them.

[TrannyAcid]

jericho was fucking amazing in WCW

[bukkake2007]

He could've been so much bigger in wcw if they didn't hold him down. He was definately the best microphone talent they had, ever.

[greatsanchini]

@bukkake2007 I completely agree. His talent was both unmatched and unequaled. He could have been so much bigger. Ralphus could have been the greatest talent ever. Shame.

[pladampa]

@bukkake2007 yep and Jericho wasn't to bad either!

[644547024430]

@bukkake2007 yeah man, ralphus was nitro

[pladampa]

@bukkake2007 I agree I wish Ralphus couldve reached his full potential.

[eldogg4life]

Raw is Jericho!!!!

[eastwestlover]

i hated chris jericho i never understood why WWE liekd his ass soooo much i grew up watching him and remembered him as the "CRY BABY"

[JoeyCalzaghe]

@eastwestlover you do know wrestling is fake right?

[ericlinebaugh]

Because thats the role that he wanted to play and obviously it worked since you seem to hate him so much.

[kuppkake13]

I THINK I remember Jericho talking about what happened at 0:48 through 0:56....Great video, I really liked it!

[rtk316ytshooter94]

I read this in his book and it's as Jeri-awesome as he says it is. Shame he never got pushed in WCW he would've been their Rock or Austin.

[Yesiamblind]

Everytime someone works with Jericho during his promos he gets beat up after it. Lenny Lane, this guy, countless others. They all should have figured it out by now by that Jericho might turn on them but they all fall for it. It's absolutely hysterical.

[RetepAdam]

Nice "Denver fears New York Giants" sign.

I wonder how that worked out for that guy.

[puffykilled2pac]

WCW Jericho was so freaking awesome

[sshapour]

Ralphus was by far the best bodyguard in wrestling history.

[scotty2scoops]

agreed

[goodbyeshawn]

@sshapour

so true. Seperating those two is like seperating Undertaker and Paul Bearer.

Ralphus is dead btw.

R.I.P. Ralphus

[SabbraCadabra]

@sshapour WCW completely disrespected him. Too bad for them, because WWF saw his talent and stole him away. It's no wonder the WCW folded in the end. It's also ironic, because the WWF also eliminated their only real competition and are what they are today because of that.

[AnHonestMan1]

WCW Jericho was soooo damn funny, he is AWESOME! Superb heel

[theundertaker713]

great quality thank you for posting this!

[straightedgectb]

i met ralphus before. his niece worked for my mom when i was little.

[abeedakbar]

jericho talks about ralphus in his book, its hilarious

[TheCrematory83]

jericho was one of the best workers on wcw ! but only mindcard he should be more pushed !

[badbabybear1]

The announcers talking over Jericho and totally ignoring him aggrevated me. I used to hate when they'd do annoying stuff like that.

Jericho was on a roll here and management just totally mucked it up. Yet another shiing example of why they went under.

[AnotheroftheRabble]

Agreed. You can tell by the hype around him entering WWF. No push in WCW but fans were already comparing him to The Rock.

[gnetikjakhammer]

and ralphus, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

Haha, Jericho comedy gold.

[WaltWalt420]

He used to be such a good heel

[CaptainCrunchisma]

USED TO BE? Screw that. He still is.

[texasguy10209]

WCW was sold to Vince Mcmahon {WWE/F} in March 2001 for a merer 4.5 million dollars.

This video alone is worth much more then 4.5 Million dollars. Time Warner killed WCW not WWE.

TNA wouldnt suck so much if it had a Ted Turner to back it up. For now we have to sit through crap ass matches and the first 20 minutes of talk on RAW each week.

4 straight PPV mains event the last 4 months {Cena Vs Orton}. Will somebody create another wrestling show please?

I miss you WCW, Nitro, Thunder... so on

[Gun2Nutz]

Ok thats nice. ill admit i never watched WCW live on tv, but so what?

[Gun2Nutz]

his promos where genius..

"move 17.....ARMBAR"

lol

[gnetikjakhammer]

its actually hold, not move.

It's okay though, keep watching your cena and pretending like you know classics.

[alejandron1984]

connan

[saved83]

that's shawn michaels and his bodyguard thats Diesel the trucker

[dormomu]

dude ! it is such a blatant rip off ! and I always loved jericho's theme because of it ! his theme song is set in the key of D(Sorry to get so musically tech on people reading this) and DDP's song is set in the key of F... just like Smells like teen spirit.... and has the same rhythm part as it. You know who is the man? Jim f'n Johnston ! he is wwe's in house music producer who writes the theme songs for their wrestlers. I wish I had his job ! Mankind, Goldust, Jericho had the sickest songs !

[dormomu]

I love Jericho's theme ! Especially when Pearl Jam plays it ! WCW had all kinds of loot and they have wack music for their "rasslers"? does anyone remember DDP"s wack ass Smells Like Teen Spirit entrance music? more like "smells like a lawsuit "!

[geldofpunk]

It isn't a Pearl Jam song, it's just a generic version. DDP's was generic too.

[rabbitkeeper]

I remember that. "Self high five!"

[lonewolf2379]

jeez its only now as a long time wcw fan that i can see that this dude was main event status but was fucked about by wcw big style

WCW ..I MISS YOU BIG TIME

[antianni1]

what the hell are people like

JsunPWMemories talking about? with this stupid rip jericho thing?

his new gimmick is brilliant, he wins a lot of matches (cleanly, as a heel), is one of the top players on Smackdown right now (as well as carrying RAW last year to the point where they even gave him a superstar of the year award), and J freaking R weekly refers to him as "maybe the best wrestler in the world today" on smackdown. JR. saying that about a heel.

jericho is a top asset in WWE

[JMVEntertainment]

preach it brother!

[GregGumbel]

I'd agree, except for the JR thing. He'll slobber over anyone Vince tells him to. He's the reason people think Triple H and Ric Flair are in the same league. But Jericho is definitely one of the few good wrestlers left in the WWE

[JsunPWMemories]

I agree

RIP Chris Jericho...

Its sad what WWE has done with him. This jericho, and the jericho that first entered the WWE was one of the best characters is the buisness...

But now its like WWE has drained every bit of personality out of him.

He's attitude is just dull now..

[Bobcheese400]

Jericho has creative control of his character. In other words, the former Y2J made himself the "dull" character.

[GregGumbel]

its deliberate, to get people to not like him and like Cena etc. Unfortunately its turning away fans

[heyarnoldsknee]

I'm enjoying it. Those fans are idiots

[dshban]

That's the whole point, dummy. He's a heel.

[saved83]

ur right

wcw jericho rulz

wwe jericho sucks

[marie90]

y2j is better than lionheart jericho imo so with that said wwf jericho rocks

[heyarnoldsknee]

You're wrong

WCW Jericho rules

WWE Jericho is SUPREME

[1fletch]

r.i.p the Lion Heart

Jericho;

Lion Heart > Y2J heel> Y2J face > serious heel

[94fordtaurus]

One of the best talkers today working in wrestling, Chris Jericho.

[Y2Jason99]

Wrestiing tights and cowboy boots! That's an awesome look!

[Leg3ndKilla687]

WCW heel JERICHO WAS GOD..(RIP THE OLD HEEL Y2J ='(

[tReatCrow]

where is now Konnan?

[ejc8707]

Ralphus FTW

[quags]

basketball highlights 13

[FPWDude]

Reminds me of Stevie Richards and Blue Meanie.

[harmanthind1]

gahahhah soooo true

[pojojo1]

Man Jericho can't Draw well.

[curryangel]

Ralphus! Pen! Now!! 4.09
