The Best Chris Jericho

This is one of Jericho's best runs for sure. He's been the highlight of everything he has done for months now. The List has just turned into gold. He sells it all. But his best run was in 08 when he was a heel and came out in suits, used huge words, really talked down to the crowd. That was Jericho at my favorite, that was so great. The way he just stopped doing all his catch phrases so suddenly.

This is Jericho's best ever run, no doubt. He's on fire.

He's been brilliant this time round. I've always like him, but this time he seems to have found a new level. He's always best when he's a heel as he's one of those guys that fans love for being a heel.

That's why he's winning the Rumble. 😉

This or his wcw heel run.

Yeah, that heel run in WCW was pretty amazing considering he was just not paid attention to and he was one of the few that actually knew how to take advantage of that fact.  TV time = gold and Jericho proved that equation through and through.

Although, I really enjoyed his "Save Us" return in 08.  I got to be at the RAW the week after his return in Charleston, SC.  He beat Umaga.  But, he feuded with Orton, won the world title, had a feud of the year with Shawn Michaels that is still talked about to this day, and he debuted the Codebreaker in this run.  This run is what showed his longevity and ability to evolve his character.

But, if we're talking one single solitary night in his career?  Man.  It would HAVE to be beating Stone Cold and The Rock in one night or his debut on RAW interrupting The Rock.  That shit was super nova hot...holy jeez what a night to be a 13 (much less 30!) year old mark hahaha!

Yay, some proper Jericho love for this latest run. I don't know why, but I love his scarf. That mixed with his goatee just makes him look like a proper heel as he looks so pompous.

Best night of his career was definitely beating Stone Cold and The Rock on the same night. I can't think of anyone else that has beaten the both in one night. In a triple threat maybe, but not in two singles matches (although Jericho might be the only person to have gone against both like that in one event). That just made it great and such a huge moment. Was so unexpected as well.

Jericho is the new US Champion. The dream is that Jericho and Owens walk into Mania as champions together. The reality is that Reigns is now the Universal Champion. I hope I'm wrong, but we all know that I won't be. WWE have their full on boner back for Reigns despite no one else buying into him.

Well done to Jericho though, glad he's getting a title run from what has been a brilliant career run for him. Was a title that had eluded him as well, so makes it even better.

I've seen someone mentioning that he's now a record holder for this title reign. Good on him.

One thing this does though, is completely change my view that Jericho his a potential Rumble winner. Not happening now.

Nope, nope, nope. It's a red herring. He's still winning the Rumble and he's gonna lose the title back to Reigns before the Rumble show.
