Bio:
Chris Irvine was born November 9th, 1970 in New York. His professional debut was in 1990. In WWE history, several men have achieved greatness with the microphone. The same could be said for in-ring success. Only on a few precious and rare occasions, however, do we find somebody with the ability to be at the top in both respects…but without a doubt Chris Jericho is one of them.
A former WCW Champion, Jericho debuted on WWE television in August 1999 as “Y2J”—the “savior” of WWE—and his opening night spat with The Rock was one of the most famous verbal exchanges in RAW history. Jericho wasted no time picking a fight with The Rock and shortly thereafter, Jericho was a Championship contender.
In a very short time competing for WWE, Jericho has earned a lifetime’s worth of accolades, including becoming the first WWE Undisputed Champion after beating The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, thanks to Booker T's interference, in the same night.
Seemingly, Chris Jericho is one who finds success easily—in the ring and outside of it as well. Proof of this is Jericho’s band, “Fozzy” that has quickly risen to prominence within alternative music circles. Jericho has a wife and a son named Ash.
Lately, the WWE has teased on television that Jericho doesn't care about wrestling as much anymore and that he cares more about Fozzy and his music. I read his contract is coming up soon and I have to wonder if they are planning on getting rid of him, or if they are doing something new with him.
