[edit] Stats
Jericho is more like 5 ft 10 in rathee than 6 ft 0 in.(Halbared 16:17, 10 June 2006 (UTC))
CWA as in Canadian Wrestling Alliance, or Continental Wrestling Alliance? And as for the WWA link, you might want to link to the full federation name...
- A lot of that was ambiguous because I simply didn't know. I've done some more digging and I think I've fixed it all. It has room for a lot more detail but I don't want to just do pro-wrestling (it doesn't reflect well!) -- rparle 04:11, Mar 14, 2004 (UTC)

- Changed Moongoose to Mongoose. Simple spelling mistake. --Fergdude33 16:42, 10 September 2005 (UTC)

- Actually, if you have the Jericho VHS the WWF released, he is called MOONgoose, as in the object orbiting Earth and the bird.

[edit] Images...

[edit] Should be moved
This article should be moved to Christopher Irvine. I would hardly expect to find Patrick Stewart under Jean-Luc Picard Duke toaster 19:00, 27 February 2006 (UTC).
- Nope. There's a naming controversy regarding professional wrestlers, but the analogy is flawed. Unlike in other media, professional wrestlers regularly use their stage names outside of wrestling events, as is the case with Chris Jericho. --Jtalledo (talk) 19:41, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
- There's a world of difference between Star Trek and wrestling. Anyone with a brain can tell you that it's flat out disrespectful to refer to wrestlers by their real names if they go by a ring name. So, no, it should stay right here. 65.189.210.173 19:55, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Born Again?
I don't think Jericho is a born again Christian. He was always a Christian as his Dad mention in an interview once that Chris was always very serious about his religion.
(the above was unsigned)
I've seen other Christian wrestlers refer to Jericho as a Christian and a born-again Christian, but I can't remember if I've seen Jericho himself call himself a born-again Christian. It's a gray area at best. Bcarlson33 02:26, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Born again Christian is the same as Christian.--66.146.59.114 21:09, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- not really. yes, they do practice the same faith, but being a born again Christian is saying that the person didn't always practice Christianity. I think the question of his religion was if he was raised Christian or if he found Jesus as an adult. I really don't know either way, the only things I've read that he wrote (about his religion) was in the Q&A section of www.chrisjericho.com it said -
(Q)"I heard from someone you're a practising Christian. Is that true?
(A)I do the best that I can.
CJ"
and (Q)"I wanted to ask you if you believe in guardian angels?
-Charlene
(A)I believe in Jesus and he's my guardian angel, so yes I do.
CJ"
this really only proves that he is a Christian now, whether he is born again, I dont know Katie 23:25, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, that is incorrect. Stating that one is a "born-again" Christian does not imply that they were not always a Christian. For example, current US President George Walker Bush states that he is a born-again Christian, yet he has been a Christian for the vast majority of his life. Born-again implies some.... epiphany of faith, so to speak. -Darryl Hamlin 05:50, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Born again simply means they have had a baptism. You can be a Christian all your life and when you are baptised you are "born again". Simple as that. The idea being that when you go under the water your old self dies and you are born again. You don't have to have an epiphany.
[edit] Host of the eBaumsWorld TV show?
I added the part about Jericho co-hosting the eBaumsworld TV series on the USA Network Monday nights, which was confirmed by the actual ebaumsworld.com website:

[edit] Thanks for letting me know pro wrestling is pre determined, Wikipedia
Thanks for letting me know at the top of the Chris Jericho page. Real help there! I would've never known it was pre-determined.
Is that really needed? How condecending is that? 65.30.40.87 19:14, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
- It's as condecending as putting that it's predetermined in the article in the first place. That's unnecessary and insulting to wrestling fans. Despite popular opinion, we're not all mindless marks. 65.189.210.173 19:54, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Twins?
Is there a source of the twin's birth?Thanks.MgHoneyBee 00:04, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Post 2000???!
Where has all the bio post-2000 gone??
[edit] Remenber
When Jericho was always saying Oh my god I think I killed Juvi, that shit was funny as hell
[edit] 1004 Holds
Would there be any interest in putting this into the article, simply for humour's sake?
[edit] Jericho's 18 minute reign
Look, I'm not trying to get some sort od debate started, but since the WWE doesn't recognize Jericho as the champion after his win over Triple H, then it shouldn't be listed. I know that it doesn't make a whole lotta sense, particularly considering that Andre The Giant only held the title for about a minute before "selling" it to Ted DiBiase back in 1988, but that's how the WWE has decided to do it. So, since it's not WWE canon, adding Jericho's 18 minute reign into the section of championship accomplishments wouldn't be accurate. Odin's Beard 00:02, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Idiot who removed pictures
Which person removed the pictures of Jericho as IC champ and one of his famous poses? Also on Lance Storm page the picture of him as IC champ has been removed whats this about. If these pictures make the article more decorated, then why remove them!!!! Why is Wiki so dominated by certain creators, if any new editing happens it dissapears. This is a serious complaint!!!!!!!!!
I have put the images back as they better show Y2J carreer, please dont change them and the section about Y2J future, the picture makes the section more interesting.
I have again removed the images that have been stolen from Obsessed With Wrestling. Please see [1] and [2] regarding use of images on Wikipedia. Also see WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL before making any further comments. Sasaki 17:09, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
RAWisJericho.jpg is also from OWW?
May I respectfully suggest you refrain from further comment until you have looked at the links I generously provided for your benefit? The RAWisJericho image is of clear origin, the other images are not. Sasaki 19:37, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bull Shit
Its from Obsessed With Wrestling also, my images were from that website as well. So whats the difference. Your link is the same link that I had, so whats the difference. I also provided the same link. You keep saying its clear origin, but its from the same place as where I got the pictures from.
This is a promo photo of Chris Jericho taken from: http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/pictures/c/chrisjericho/16.jpg
So the picture is so called stolen from obsessed with wrestling. So stop removing things!
Please read the links I generously provided before making further comment. Sasaki 15:29, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Look who do you think you are, every change I make you delete, In the New Wave page you removed my contribution as well, which was valid as Nu Metal/Alt Metal are an offshoot of New Wave. Many bands have claimed they based themselves on pop-punk. You dont know nothing about music, so why are changing it. I will complain to Wiki about you, as you keep deleting everyones contbutions. Also what do you know about New Wave, so stop editing.
Before making further comment, see WP:POV, WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL Sasaki 19:45, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Firstly I know all of these rules already. The main problem is that you are acting as a know it all and are tuning this into sasakipedia. You are a hypocritical asswipe and had no reason to make amendments to the New Wave page.
Again, before making further comment, see WP:POV, WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL. If you wish to continue down this slippery slope, it is at your own wish. Sasaki 20:16, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Oh fUCK OFF Sasaki go stick the rules in the trash where you belong, Oh I am Sasaki nerd I follow the rules, Its Rock N Roll man, no fuckin rules and if it serves the purpose then its fine. Got it nerd boy.
[edit] The Picture has been Sourced properly
The picture of him being Intercontinental Champion.
That is an incorrect statement. Yet again, may I ask you to read the pages I linked you to. Sasaki 19:44, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Cut from Article
If true, this edit should not overwrite the Early Career section.
--- Begin cut container
[edit] Which Shit took Y2J picture off
Which Ass clown took the picture off Y2J signing autographs, seriously what do you want Wiki to succeed or not you fuckin asswipe! Go blow yourself and leave the pictures as they serve the purpose. It would right to delete something if it was wrong but now you are being to picky!
[edit] Verification Please
"On the 12th of October, Chris Jericho stated in an interview with the British tabloid newspaper 'The Sun' that he will be making a series of appearances at TNA events in February of next year. Nothing else was stated by the former WWE champion, although he hinted that he may feud with Samoa Joe"
Can somebody verify this for me? It isn't up on the Sun's website, so I have to assume it's a fake or somesuch.
01:24, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[Gruntyking117]
- I doubt that very much, but Fozzy will be performing on Impact next week. 65.189.210.173 19:51, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Which Guy removed the TNA bit
Man you guys are like nannies, Y2J will be coming on TNA next week. Hence put it in the Y2J article. Last change ever as I have noticed theres to many know it alls. So Fucka you!
[edit] Will he come back
Will Y2J come back to the WWE or go to TNA?
This isnt a message board numb nuts, it's a place for discussing how we can better this article. And do your own researchThe Legendary One 10:54, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Apology and thanks, yo.
Sorry for repeatedly editing the article last night. I was sleepy and couldn't find the image that was originally used. My bad for trying Chris Jericho.jpg, not Chris jericho.jpg. And thank you, Jtalledo, for fixing it after my poor attempts to. -Darryl Hamlin 20:25, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Jericho's Undisputed Title Reign (Controversy)
Hello all.
I've added a quote from the book "The Death of the World Wrestling Federation", which - it should be noted - claims to have taken various sources & accounts directly from backstage sources.
McMahon was said to have passed a pretty negative remark regarding his reign as Undisputed champion, which I have added to the main article (and backed it up with a source). However, to take the harsh edge off the comment (and to open up the fact that many fans sympathise with Y2J's situation), I've also added that many fans feel it was due to his poor booking.
Since reading it back, I took it from the main article to the 'Trivia' page (where it probably feels out of place actually), but have since moved it back, this time placing it within brackets.
I haven't added a source for that in particular, but I know various forums have threads dedicated to it. Should I reference it?
[edit] Jericho / WCW Champion
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't The Rock the last WCW World Champion? He held it on the night of Survivor Series 2001 if I'm correct (when it was still the WCW World Championship)
It was only the next night on RAW (following WCW's 'defeat') that Vince renamed it the 'World' Championship
(I don't know if people are confused by the fact that he held the belt itself during his Undisputed run? It wasn't the WCW Championship during this era, and even if one *were* to count that belt as the WCW belt, then Triple H was in fact the last guy to hold the 'dual belt' structure prior to Ric Flair's unveiling of the new 'Undisputed' belt)
[edit] Jericho / Break from wrestling
I checked and no where on the TNAwrestling website is there an interview with Chris Jericho. Can anybody verify a source?
70.230.174.76 02:43, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Return
Will Jericho return to WWE or TNA? He keeps dropping hints but it is very confusing. If he returns to WWE will he be on RAW or ECW? If he goes to TNA will he be treated in respect to his talent? We need an update from someone official. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.3.7.2 (talk) 01:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC).
Shall I toss a coin? Or would you like me to try telepathy? 60.224.211.205 07:36, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
What I meant was could someone from Wikipedia contact Jericho. But we need someone official. We don't need two people saying TNA then three saying WWE. Someone must be chosen.
I have E-Mailed Jericho on his website and I am waiting for his personal response, so when I get MY ANSWER from Jericho himself then I will post his answer. It will be official because it comes from Jericho himself and it will be on his personal website for everyone to see.--AD Double J 02:33, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
