save_us websites

The quote "The campaign also spread over the internet with websites also featuring hidden messages and biblical links hinting Jericho's return." from the article is false. Those sites were fan made, and have no official connection to WWE. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.18.66.137 (talk) 21:54, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Check the sources. The sites are registered to Joseph Perkins, a President/Communications Consultant for WWE [1]-- bulletproof 3:16 19:58, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

WWE counts win over Steve Austin as two seperate title reigns?

From Chris Jericho's title history on WWE.com

"WWE Championship (1 Time) def. Stone Cold, Dec. 9, 2001*

Undisputed World Championship (1 Time) def. Stone Cold … also def. The Rock … Dec. 9, 2001*

  • Unification Match"

I don't know if this should be added to the wiki, but it seems that the WWE sees Jericho's victory as two seperate reigns: one as a WWE title reign, and one as a Undisputed title reign. I thought I would just let this could be (un)important information known. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.78.135.152 (talk) 02:02, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Basically, imagine that when he won the World (WCW) Title a second time, it was a few weeks earlier. Then they announced a unification match, and Jericho wins the WWF title, unifying the two. It's basically that, except that the two victories occured about twenty or so minutes apart. Mshake3 (talk) 02:21, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

I have not made any changes, but i disagree with the assertion that he is a four-time champion. For certain, he is a 2-time WCW Champion, a 1-time Undisputed Champion, and a 1-time World Heavyweight Champion. But I don't believe that if you hold one world title and win another, you can become MORE of a heavywieght champion or a heavyweight champion again. He had one world title, then won another, but he remained a world title holder the entire time, thus one title reign. Unification should not be viewed two seperate reigns. When the European and intercontinental titles were merged, it was not counted as two title reigns. WikiHistoryEditorGuy (talk) 05:34, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Dude, that conversation is ten months old. The issue was resolved a long time ago. Darrenhusted (talk) 09:45, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Jericho however is techinally a tweener cause of his honesty —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.15.90.253 (talk) 21:02, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Liontamer/Walls of Jericho

CJ uses , at all, 3 variations of the boston crab, the original, the elevated (which he remains sanding) and the elevated with knee to the back (Liontamer), the last one he uses in WWF/WWE, There's a match vs. Paul London in WWE where he made Paul London tap out by the Liontamer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BrunoXico2345 (talkcontribs) 14:31, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Personal Life - Missing Tooth

At WWE's No Mercy 2008, in a ladder match for the World Heavyweight Championship, Chris Jericho lost a tooth when Michaels hit him in the mouth, accidently knocking one of his teeth out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.30.122.181 (talk) 20:09, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Reliable source for this information?You're right, was reported by WWE.com and WrestleView.com (reliable sources).--SRX 20:50, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

2006?

There is nothing here at all about anything he did in 2006. Why is that?

Well, he wasn't wrestling so it's all under the Other media section. ♥NiciVampireHeart♥ 00:25, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

The Undertaker

Jericho did'nt have a rivalry with Undertaker this much not only at the Wrestlemania event, but also during his career in the WWE. Y2J did fight him once in the Fatal 4 Way match on the November 9th, 2000 epsiode of Smackdown when Kane was also involved in that match. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.189.21.176 (talk) 04:30, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Slammy award

Jericho won Superstar of the Year (2008) last night on RAW. Shouldn't this be listed along or near his championships? Disregard. Saw it already up. Didn't look hard enough. Satyrquaze (talk) 17:13, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Fired?

Is Jericho's "firing" legit or kayfabe? SAVIOR_SELF.777 04:49, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

It's all part of the storyline dude. TrekFanatic (talk) 05:50, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
It seemed pretty real to me, like an excuse to do what he did last time; maybe he's bored at WWE? Kalajan 17:01, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
Most likely, vince'll bring him back. Now, i gotta be a hypocrite and say NO MORE DISCUSSION OF RUMORS. :D 3pointswish (talk) 06:19, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Mistakes/Omissions

In the initial paragraph it says Jericho 'became the WWF Undisputed Championship'. Also, there is no mention of his participation in the first elimination chamber match in the 2001/02 section, a match best remembered for Jericho's performance. The previous point about trimming nicknames to those he actually went by for a sustained period i.e. more than two promos (Man of 1004 holds) is valid and unresolved. And in terms of the championship reigns and beating Austin, it did make him more of a champion as it unified the two major titles that had always been separate. Also, as a major title won it should be included as Jericho winning the WWF title, as he had won the WCW belt earlier in the evening, as well as consequently earning a unique championship status into the bargain. 2fletch (talk) 19:16, 13 January 2009 (UTC) are you morons? It isn't keyfabe it's a storyline. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.110.14.201 (talk) 08:06, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Jericho's Wrestlemania XXVI World Title match win was the second time in history that the title was retained at a Wrestlemania. The first time being Triple H's Wrestlemania XIX win over Booker T during his 2nd reign. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.122.36.222 (talk) 06:12, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

WWE Magazine/Match Of The Decade Slammy

Last December, Chris Jericho stated in an interview that WWE Magazine named him 2008 Jerk of The Year. Also in 2003 at the Raw 10th anniversary special, Chris Jericho, among others, won the slammy award for Match Of The Decade:TLC 2002. Now I believe both these should be listed under accomplishments.Natalielovesjericho (talk) 01:36, 7 February 2009 (UTC) why do people keep deleting things i put down? I gave a source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Natalielovesjericho (talkcontribs) 01:51, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

That wasn't a Slammy Award. It was a poll done for the 10th Anniversary of Raw to decide the best televised match. -- Scorpion0422 01:58, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

well it was an accomplishment and should be isted imo —Preceding unsigned comment added by Natalielovesjericho (talkcontribs) 03:19, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

In your opinion, yeah. But, in some others, no. If you really want this in, start a consensus discussion. SimonKSK 01:00, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

PWI Award

In the most recent issue of Pro-Wrestling Illustrated, Jericho received honors for 'Comeback of the Year', 'Feud of the Year' (with Shawn Michaels), and 'Most Hated Wrestler'. Satyrquaze (talk) 21:30, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

  • Also: Its noted he was ranked 4th in the PWI 500 in 2002. Is it worth noting that he was ranked 5th in 2003? Satyrquaze (talk) 20:27, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
No. Only the highest PWI 500 ranking is noted per WP:PW, or else the championships and accomplishments will be way too long for most wrestlers. ♥NiciVampireHeart♥ 03:55, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Altercation

He had a altercation with several fans at a victoria house show, even hitting one of the female fans. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrpengo88 (talkcontribs) 23:11, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

This should blow over before it's added to the article; at the moment, there's too much heat from both sides, which would likely devolve into an edit war. HaikenEdge (talk) 01:39, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Codebreaker

Isn't the Codebreaker a single knee move? Tobythegreat (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 10:31, 12 February 2009 (UTC).

No, Jericho performs a Double Knee Facebreaker which he calls the "Codebreaker". There is a single knee variation, but its primarily used as a double knee move. I've never seen him perform the manuever using a single knee. Satyrquaze (talk) 17:12, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

It looks like a Double Knee, but he only connect with the head with one knee, I'd say it's a variation of the sigle knee or a modified single knee facebreaker. 77.103.28.233 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 22:51, 12 February 2009 (UTC).

Well, the link for the Codebreaker goes to a "Double Knee Facebuster". I'm not sure personally what you're getting at. Chris Jericho uses both knees. The move is traditionally called a Double Knee Facebuster... I don't see an issue. Satyrquaze (talk) 20:26, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Watch Chris Jericho hit the move, the face of the opponent only connects with one knee. He doesn't use both knees. 77.103.28.233 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 16:08, 16 February 2009 (UTC).

It doesn't matter if he hits both knees or not,the idea is that Jericho is trying to make it look like he is using both knees.

Notable Instruments?

Does Jericho play any instruments in his band? If so, I think it would be wise to add it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.232.112.232 (talk) 04:07, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

I've seen footage him playing a guitar. Not sure how noteworthy that is. Satyrquaze (talk) 16:12, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Jericho and Kelly Kelly?

Just Wondering is jericho dating kelly kelly, there are pictures of them kissing and hugging on the internet. Dod he divorce his wife? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.220.150.214 (talk) 21:03, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

There's one set of pictures of them partying, theres nothing in those pictures that would give the impression that they are doing anything other than hanging out at this point. I think there's one pic of them kissing, but it barely amounts to lip pressing. There's also the fact that Kelly Kelly's ex (Andrew "Test" Martin) just recently passed away who was also a good friend of Jericho's. maybe they just both needed to go out and celebrate their friend. One random kiss does not mean they are dating. Satyrquaze (talk) 21:57, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Undisputed champion

From the intro: "His first reign as WWF Champion and his second reign as WCW Champion (then known as the World Championship) together make him the first Undisputed Champion in history." Surely he's the first Undisputed Champion since Lou Thesz when promotions began to declare their own world championships? Or he's the first Undisputed Champion in WWF history, except is he because up until six months previously there was only one WWF Championship anyway. Tony2Times (talk) 16:48, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Undisputed Title run

It should be noted that Jericho was the longest reigning and smallest Undisputed Champion ever.--Natalielovesjericho (talk) 00:59, 21 April 2009

No, it shouldn't. Darrenhusted (talk) 09:05, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Managers

I added Theodore Long and Chyna as two of Jericho's managers. Long was for a short time Jericho's manager in WCW and Chyna/CJ were together in early 2000 before Chyna turned.--Natalielovesjericho (talk) 21:34, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

ThemeSongs

I'm sure that he as used the same theme song for a while but it has been performed differantly for example it is the same song but performed differantly on svr09 then the one he use in wrestling. 82.21.192.131 (talk) 14:12, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Lucha de Apuesta record

rey mysterios mask was never ever part of the match stipulation at extreme rules. jericho himself said that he wanted to rip the mask of, the mask itself was never declared to be part of the stipulation. therefore it was no official mask/title match. only a title match. guess you can expect a title vs. mask match soon, though. --77.186.49.140 (talk) 20:40, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Is Chris Jericho Guest Starring on Aaron Stone?

I saw an Aaron Stone commercial saying that Chris Jericho will guest star in an Aaron Stone episode on June 22. I checked on Wikipedia's Aaron Stone article and it says that too. If the info is true, put the info in the Other Media section of this article. Typingwestern015 (talk) 01:35, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Theme Sung by who?

I thought his theme was sung by himself. Y2J The Evil Twin (talk) 20:35, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Theme Name

His theme is called 'Break the Walls Down'. On both Raw Greatest Hits the Music and WWE the Music Volume 8 it's called 'Break the Walls Down'. Those themes are different than his current theme, but his current theme's just a remix of them. Y2J The Evil Twin (talk) 10:07, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Tag Titles

WWE.com lists the Jericho/Show tag team title reign as having started on 7-26-09. They consider it as a new reign, separate from Jericho/Edge. In other words, Jericho/Show is a different team than Jericho/Edge, so once Show was announced as the new partner, the Jericho/Edge reign ended, and the Jericho/Show reign began. Vjmlhds 23:39, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

The TAG TEAM reign is separate (meaning WWE doesn't consider all 3 to be the same team). As I presented evidence at WT:PW, WWE considers Jericho's reign to be continuous. He never lost the title or was stripped of it, he just picked who would replace Edge. TJ Spyke 06:00, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Actually, WWE counts it as a separate reign. Remember when Cody Rhodes betrayed Hardcore Holly and "rewon" the title with Ted DiBiase at Night of Champions 2008? Both WWE and Wikipedia counts that as two separate reigns, making Rhodes a three-time tag team champion. The same should be done with Jericho's reigns. D4S (talk) 18:19, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
There is a very very very long discussion about this at the project. Probably now in the talk archives. Darrenhusted (talk) 18:53, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Trainers

According to Jericho's book, he wasn't trained by Stu Hart at all. Keith Hart was only there for a few minutes according to Jericho and just stiffed and stretched him. So why are the Hart's listed as his trainers? The book says that Ed Langley and Langley's assistant (whose name escapes me at the moment) trained him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.84.4.120 (talk) 23:25, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

  • If you can find a another source besides Jericho's book to back that up then we will be happy to make the change's if they are needed tell then the info that is listed will stay the same.--Dcheagle (talk) 23:30, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Twitter

He has a twitter account and it is [www.twitter.com/iamjericho IAmJERICHO] proof that it really is him is at [www.twitpic.con/photos/iamjericho TwitPic]. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.116.57.122 (talk) 15:36, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Bloodstained Memoirs

Of all the things Jericho does outside of the ring, I doubt this documentary is the most visible and the one that should be put in the introduction to the article. I can understand it in say, Molly Holly's page, but Jericho has a lot more high profile projects both behind and ahead of him than an internet documentary that's about four years out of date at this point. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.51.216.42 (talk) 17:32, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Sleeper hold

I've noticed that since around May/June Jericho has started using a half nelson sleeper hold quite frequently; he emphasizes it with, "ask him!" and is treated sort of a signature. Should that be part of his repertoire listed now? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.61.41.224 (talk) 00:03, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Chris Jericho

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Chris Jericho's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "oww":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 14:17, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

"Face Turn"

I edited the article the other day because what people are considering to be a "face turn" really isn't. Yes, The Nexus are heels and yes, they attacked heel wrestlers like Chris Jericho and Edge, but that doesn't automatically make them babyfaces. The whole angle is about heels and faces setting their differences aside long enough to take on a common enemy because no one is safe from The Nexus while they're around, regardless of what their current alignment may be. vDub (talk) 06:27, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm inclined to agree. There have been plenty of times when heels align themselves with faces for their own benefit. It may hint at a turn, but most times it does not count as a true turn. In this case, Jericho is on Team WWE simply because he realizes the attacks by Nexus aren't going to stop. --☆ Antoshi ☆ T | C 20:05, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Article length

I feel as though this article may be too long. It's my understanding that week by week synopses should not be added to articles of Professional wrestlers. It seems like, especially with the most recent events, that's happened quite a lot and the current section 'Championship Reigns (2008-present)' is an incredibly large wall of text that can be trimmed and edited. The rest of the article may be fine, although perhaps also a tad on the overly informative side. --☆ Antoshi ☆ T | C 02:17, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

possible backstage section

I noticed that Bruno Sammartino has a 'backstage incidents' section on his page. While Jericho's history of backstage incidents is nowhere near the level that Sammartino's is, maybe a footnote mentioning his infamous altercations with Bill Goldberg and other wrestlers. Maybe his incidents with fans during the beginning of his 2008 heel turn? Satyrquaze (talk) 15:06, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Bulldog Bob Brown

When Jericho was interviewed by the Score's Arda Ocal he seems to have a response to some inside joke regarding a wrestler by this name. A quick look shows us that Bob Brown (wrestler) who did go by "Bulldog" was a member of Stampede wrestling. While this man died a while ago in 1997, since Jericho started at Stampede in 89 that gives us up to an 8 year window where the two might have met. If anyone is interested in the interview clips they are this recent one and this longer one from last month. Does anyone know more details about the relationship between the Lion and "Triple B" and would it be relevant to include this in the article? I would add it but I'm just editing by IP atm and this is semi-protected plus I want to make sure it is notable. In the very least, I think it something obscurely interesting to show his knowledge of the history. 174.115.134.69 (talk) 04:11, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Offical Chris Jericho Webpage Edit request from 71.65.81.11, 3 September 2010

{{editsemiprotected}} The link for Chris Jerichos offical home page is a fake.I know Chris and he does not have a facebook page so could you please change the link to his actual site. His real sites are listed below. Thank you so much for your time I know he will apreciate it.

His twitter: [2] His offical page [3] And Fozzy offical page [4]

Chris has alot of imposter sites and even publicly stated he does not have a facebook. Chris and I dont think the fans should be following an imposter it isn't fair to them.

71.65.81.11 (talk) 03:55, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Already done
At least I think so...I can't find any references to Facebook or a 'Chris Jericho' Facebook account in the article (unless maybe I missed it). The Official page and Fozzy page are already in the article.
Also, the Request template states: This template may only be used when followed by a specific description of the request, that is, specific text that should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".
Before anything assertion (like this Twitter account?) is added to the article, there needs to be a reliable source for the change. Shearonink (talk) 05:30, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Finishing Moves

I think the Walls of Jericho and the Liontamer should be listed seperately, not as a job lot. Not only is the 'Liontamer' not the original name for the 'Walls of Jericho', but they are distinctly different; their set up and application is different. Also, it should be noted that the 'Liontamer' was used extensively in WCW during Jericho's 'Cruiserweight' days but not as much in WWE. Hence, they should not be combined as versions of the same move as they are not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.124.140.119 (talk) 12:41, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
