History Funny / ChrisJericho

* During an Interview with Dave Batista, both him and Dave both reminisce of the time both competed in that infamous Steel Cage Match where Jericho won the World Heavyweight Champion back after hitting Dave in the head with a steel object and Bled. This was when Vince started to pull back on Bleeding during on air television, and was said to be extremely furious with everyone involved. Jericho even tried calling him but Vince kept telling him wait tell Monday. So when Dave and Jericho, along with two others involve, Dean Malenko and the Referee of the match Mike Chioda. Dave got an Astonishing $100,000 Fine, which he stated was the thing that broke his heart, how much did Chris got fined? $5,000. While $5,000 is still a lot, remember that Dave, Dean, Chioda and Jericho were in the same room when Vince told them each their fines, Dean and Chioda also got fined $5,000 as well. Jericho had to fight in his giggles because Vince was mad.

* The Festival of Friendship was over the top in all the right ways. There were showgirls, a peppy theme, a flamboyant outfit for Jericho, a parody of The Creation of Adam, ("It's art! You don't need pants!") Friendship the Magician, (who promptly gets put on The List after being unimpressive) Jericho holding his "...it!" catchphrase through an entire commercial break, and a confrontation with Goldberg...[[spoiler:except it's Gillberg!]] Many have compared it to the famous 'This Is Your Life' skit, and it was just as goofy. [[spoiler:Up until the DownerEnding when Owens brutally attacks Jericho.]]

'''Chris(after Fandango threatens him):''' Hey, where's my [[NamesTheSame movie tickets?]] I want 2 - for me and my grandma!

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wj3eK6s1nh0 In 2014]], when WWE was PG. Stephanie's expression of horror when Jericho's music hits adds perfectly to it.

* A 2002 promo with Wrestling/KurtAngle featured Jericho and Angle talking about how they didn't like Wrestling/{{Edge}}, with Angle stating the reasons ''why'' he didn't like him: Edge had long blonde hair, dressed like a rockstar, and was Canadian-- [[InsultFriendlyFire all three characteristics being shared with Jericho]]. Jericho just looks at Kurt like he's a complete idiot, before Kurt realizes this and says "Oh, but I like ''you''".

** Also of note is that Josh Matthews [[{{Corpsing}} NEEDS THE MAN!!]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUVIoP9LiXk in 2014]], when WWE was PG. Stephanie's expression of horror when Jericho's music hits adds perfectly to it.

** He them puts Strowman on The List for touching his property.

-->'''Enzo''': So giving out gifts, right? And you're making a list, and apparently checking it twice for [[YouMakeMeSic spelling errors]]...who does this guy think he is?\\

* Kevin Owens and '[=Y2J=] get into [[https://youtu.be/Cr8vHGEH6yc a promo exchange]] with Wrestling/EnzoAndCass. This is predictably entertaining on both sides, but when Jericho strings [[{{Metaphorgotten}} a reference to Santa Claus in the wrong direction,]] [[ThatCameOutWrong things get...]] [[FoeYay awkward.]]

** And as further evidence of everything Chris Jericho saying or doing turning to gold, "A little bit of the bubbly" got so far over that Nocking Point created a wine called "A Little Bit of the Bubbly."

"I'm from Winnipeg, you idiot!"

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUVIoP9LiXk in 2014]], when WWE was [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar PG]]. Stephanie's expression of horror when Jericho's music hits adds perfectly to it.

* His whole ThoseTwoBadGuys run with Wrestling/KevinOwens has resulted in some ''riotous'' promo work. He's clearly having such a blast in his role that it's actually sort of hard to boo him.

** Plus the interaction with Wrestling/SantinoMarella directly afterwards, where Jericho would constantly get Santino's name wrong and Santino would get angrier with each error practically yelling his name at Jericho by the end. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yiPKrVqpcg Here]] is the whole Ortonized challenge plus him meeting Santino.

* His song, "Shelton is a Little Bitch".

* One of the more memorable in the WWE was when he "[[RebusBubble Ortonized]]" his challenge for the title: "Me! Want! Title! Match!"

-->'''Styles''': Let me guess. You put him on the list.
-->'''Jericho''': No, I punched him the face and put him in the Walls of Jericho in Aisle 7 in front of the canned corn.

* The March 25 2020 episode of AEW: Dynamite saw Jericho attempt to call Wrestling/MattHardy down to the ring, only for Matt's drone, Vanguard, to show up instead. Cue Jericho [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=637EBSID1ak cutting a promo on a drone]]. Highlights include Jericho somehow managing to keep a straight face the entire time, inviting Vanguard to join the Inner Circle, and Cody Rhodes referring to Vanguard as AEW's 'west coast correspondent'.

* Jericho's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0WsXcPNZSo video package]] hyping up his AEW title defence against Cody at ''Full Gear'' by spoofing one of Cody's own video packages from a few weeks earlier. Probably the single funniest thing to come out of wrestling in 2019. Including special appearances by [[Wrestling/{{Virgil}} Soultrain Jones]], and Patricia Bobski, Chris' Aunt's Friend From Church.

-->'''Soultrain Jones:''' Chris Jericho's talent is like the Olive Garden breadsticks: unlimited.

* A 2002 promo with Wrestling/KurtAngle featured Jericho & Angle talking about how they didn't like Wrestling/{{Edge}}, with Angle stating the reasons ''why'' he didn't like him; Namely that Edge had long blonde hair, dressed like a rockstar & was Canadian - [[InsultFriendlyFire All three characteristics being shared with Jericho]]. Jericho just looks at Kurt like he's a complete idiot, before Kurt realizes this & says "Oh, but I like ''you''".

** His final night on Raw (As of October 2010) had Jericho make a promo which called back the aforementioned list of 1,004 holds, by having Jericho list [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVfGS227bIo every wrestler he's ever beaten]]. But if he beat someone like Kevin Nash or Scott Hall, who have wrestled under several aliases, Jericho listed ''those'' names too, and if he beat one Villano, then he beat all five. He even makes sure to point out that he beat The Undertaker ''twice''.

* In 2019 after winning AEW's world championship, Jericho basically walked around backstage talking shit to nearly every single person he could given that he's a universally despised heel and nobody showed up to congratulate him or celebrate with him, culminating in him
wandering around calling out AEW's locker room as a whole, finally discovering an ice-bucket full of champaigne and a cold cut platter, to which he utters the immortal words before he toasts to his own success.
-->'''Jericho:''' OOOH! A little bit of the bubbleh!
