jericho was pretty whiny at times in wcw but he was golden and over wit the people. he got good reactions from the little things he would do. just another guy wcw let go so they can have the 50 plus year olds domint the main event. the people in charge were fucking stupid. i loved wcw but i stopped defending them long ago the had way to many fuck ups
Just got finished reading Lions Tale, everything makes sense once you read the book, from the way chris described his "JPS" I thought that trucker guy would have been flat out ugly!
i like how at around 1:16-ish jericho pulls on the handle and the door opens, and then he closes it back and puts his hand and foot back on the same door he's trying to open. Ha, ha.
Lol, I am surprised after ready all of these comments no one has picked up this is a parody from the movie "Spinal Tap" where the rock stars get lost going to the stage.
Jericho needs to go back to his WCW heel / WWF Y2J gimmick. It was 100 times better than his "You're a hypocrite" boring-as-hell crap that he's been doing since his latest heel turn.
I'm not blaming anything on Jericho or Wrath, I blame it on how poorly WCW segments and shows were run... Jericho made every segment he had pure GOLD, I must admit, though. And he is still one of the best of all time. Up there with Angle, Flair, and Steve Austin.
too bad the angle was dropped when this could've been Jericho's break to the main event with Goldberg squashing him at World War 3, but it didn't happened.
True. Jericho could have been big for WCW, but they dropped him as he didn't have that world champion look. To be honest, he never really did, but his character made up for all of it and then some.
i disagree, Jericho's heel character had more charisma to carry the torch better than any other heel IMO (especially in WCW). I do think WWF/E's decision to make him the first undisputed champion was a little rushed though. But he is headliner material.
His heel character had quite a bit of charisma, and he was that one guy that you loved to hate as a heel, and loved as a face. However Jericho is quite the entertaining face as well.
I loved reading about this in his book-- how the bit went wrong like 3 different ways and the irony of the Spinal Tap homage turning into an actual Spinal Tap moment. Jericho is the best!!
Jericho is GOLD. Raw, SmackDown, WWE and the very concepts of wrestling and entertainment ARE Jericho...period. He's one of the best of the best ever, of course surpassing BY FAR lame-ass and boring "wrestlers" such as Triple H, Botchtista/Batisteroid and "Fucking" Cena...Jericho is one of the kings of wrestling and entertainment...ultimate period.
@corvetteSpeed14 Ok, sure...Batista and Triple H are quite talented -- in comparison to John "The PG-Kid Franchise who doesn't know more than 5 moves" Cena. But still -- they are nowhere near Jericho. Jericho is a true wrestling god, in anything: mic skills, promos, hilarious & classic moments, wrestling, commentator...even as a special referee!!! He has seen and done everything that there is to be seen and done.
U & the 13 people who agreed with this must be young. Jericho is 1 of the best, but its the World Heavyweight title wins is important. LIke most kids u confused ur favorite wrestlers with the best. HHH, & Cena has more world heavyweight title belts than Jericho. Batista & Jericho might be on the same level.
Young? I don't know what your parametres of youth are, but I'm 21. I certainly haven't seen all about the wrestling biz, but I can truly say that World Heavyweight Title wins don't make a wrestler better than another.
You truly say that Cena and HHH are the best? REALLY? Come on, man! Jericho is WAY better and awesome than those two combined. And, let's clear something, Cena is NOT better than Batista, not even in his wildest dreams. In my opinion, Batista is better than HHH.
LMAO!, best moment in WCW history, him running away screaming. Jericho truly is one of the best, and if it goes down any different history will be wrong. HELLO LEXINGTON!
This is Jericho at his best...I liked watching wrestling so much more during that era. If more guys on the roster even had half the charisma/talent of Jericho, it'd be must-see TV again.
Yea when he rehearsed it the door was locked but of course when it counts it was open you can see a security guard walking out the door just as Wrath is about to bust it open lol also it didn't show them laughing and smiling about it because WCW went passed the marker.
LMAO...Hilarious. When Jericho talks about this in his book...great few pages. He opened the door and closed it, and then at one people when he's knocking you can see the shadow of the door right next to him opening. Lol...WCW.
The guy missed the best part, at the end. Jericho slaps Wraths ass because as u can see there standing next to each other because they think the camera's arent rolling. Jericho mentions it in his book.
how can that be true, look at santino that guys hilarious, and even when jericho returned he was funny, they just dont like funny heels cause they get over as faces, like dx back in the day

Didn't Jericho write this himself? I mean it was so good, but all the mistakes...
Cameraman goes through different door...
Jericho accidentally opens the door a few seconds later...
Someone comes through the cameraman's door...
How can there be a count out? Jericho never entered the ring...
At the end, Jericho stops running, Wrath keeps going...
