Talk:Chris Jericho

Small Spelling Mistake

In the article, under section 1.5.3 (second last paragraph, second last line) it says "Jericho later stated in an interview that he loved the company and the fans, but had other things to do and accomplish in his carrer. He also stated that he would never sign with another wrestling company and that WWE is his home."

instead of "career", it says "carrer". i didn't find an edit button on the main article itself and i'm not sure how it goes, but i am sure this needs fixing. just thought i'd drop a line :)

Requesting a MAJOR article clean up.

Seriously. There are spelling errors and un-linked articles absolutely everywhere, ESPECIALLY on the recent "Second return to WWE" section. Someone should get to work on it ASAP.

Inaccuracies in the first sentence.

The part that says "who is currently signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he is also an executive producer, director, cameraman, pyrotechnician, stage manager, wardrobe and makeup artist,[5] and New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW)." This was a joke in the closing credits of an episode of AEW dynamite, he actually isn't any of those things. Also the end of the sentence "and New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW)." doesn't make any sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jkrausser (talk • contribs) 05:24, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

Please removed the below content from the last paragraph of PERSONAL LIFE.

Jericho began attracting controversy in late 2019. He hosted Donald Trump Jr. on his podcast in November 2019,[381] and donated a substantial amount of money—possibly more than the allowed limit—to Donald Trump's 2020 re-election campaign.[382] In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, he continued to perform concerts with his band; one such concert took place at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in August 2020, which was later confirmed to be a superspreading event with 266,000 cases of the virus traced back to it.[383][384] Around this time, he began giving conspiracy theorists a platform on his podcast to promote their beliefs in the flat earth myth and the COVID-19 pandemic not being a "real pandemic".[385] In January 2021, his wife posted Instagram pictures of herself at pro-Trump rallies and that month's storming of the United States Capitol.[386][387] In March, he tweeted his agreement that lockdown restrictions in Nevada should be lifted despite the pandemic still continuing.[388] RafHarrington (talk) 22:09, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

The political hate speech wrongly labeling the sturgis event a dangerous super spreader event is wrong and hateful and only added to attack and denigrate this person for his political views. It must be removed immediately. This page will be watched and edits will be enforced to remove political hate speech Mlee70 (talk) 00:44, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

 Not done: Two reliable sources refer to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally as a superspreading event. There is nothing politically libelous that I can see about that sentence. Sincerely, Deauthorized. (talk) 02:18, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

I suggest the last sentence in the first paragraph regarding him being considered "The greatest wrestler of all time" needs to be changed. By obvious reasons Chris Jericho is not considered by majority the "Greatest wrestler of all time." 66.18.47.21 (talk) 21:53, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

 Not done: I will say that it reeks of POV as it is currently written, and is in need of a citation or two, however, the paragraph reads that he "has been named by journalists and industry colleagues as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time.", there is a distinction between saying he is the greatest wrestler and saying he is one of the greatest wrestlers - it's a generalization, to be sure, and one that needs a good citation, but removing the statement outright would do a disservice to coverage of the subject.  A S U K I T E  22:09, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

 Note: An addendum to my reply - further down in the article there seem to be plenty of citations for this claim, if you're looking for them. As it is, the statement appears to be okay.  A S U K I T E  22:18, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Jericho Apprecation Society

It's a section of the article yet there's nothing about it in this article, further more it started a month ago, nowhere near 2021. 2A00:23C8:2380:6B01:F513:B534:FAB1:D7AD (talk) 04:10, 10 April 2022 (UTC)

Entire below section should be deleted immediately due to numerous violations such as: stating completely subjective opinions as fact; painfully obvious bias dislike towards the company in question; and utterly incoherent wording/sentence structure. I.E. multiple counts of trolling and vandalism.

In September 2019, during an interview for the Mature Audiences Mayhem Podcast, Jericho revealed the exact point when he decided he was going to leave the WWE. Even though Jericho was with the WWE for 15 years, the final insult came at WrestleMania 33 in 2017.[248] Despite the fact that Jericho and Kevin Owens had the best feud of the year, their match was demoted by placing it on the second place on the WrestleMania match card. The decision made by Vince McMahon was a big insult for Jericho and that prompted him to seek work elsewhere.[248] Jericho reflecting his WWE departure stated:

"Originally, that was going to be the main event for the world title. Kevin Owens was the champion and I was going to beat him in the main event of WrestleMania as a babyface."[248] Instead of having Jericho and Owens as the main event, Vince decided to put Bill Goldberg and Brock Lesnar on the main card. "Vince said that it’s going to be me versus Kevin Owens for the world title at WrestleMania and you are going to win the title, f*** yeah! Next week, he doesn’t tell me, but I hear that it’s changed to Brock Lesnar versus Bill Goldberg for the title. And not only did they take us out of the main event – and, once again, just because I was told I have no right to it and things change all the time, I’m a big boy, I can handle it. But to take us from the main event slot and then move us to the second match on the card on a card that has 12 matches on it? I was like, that’s a f***ing insult."[248]

 Partly done: I've gone ahead and removed the quotes in whole as I don't necessarily believe they add anything to that section. Furthermore, basically everything mentioned by the IP above was directly ripped from the articles used to cite them. Like, word for word. So I've done some work to make the wording more original (and in extension neutral).

As an aside, IP, please be careful about casting aspersions. Editors are encouraged to practice the assumption of good faith. While I do agree with you that issues were present that needed some fixing, it was not vandalism or trolling. —Sirdog (talk) 02:42, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

World Championship Count

The article still lists Jericho as a six-time world champion. He is at least a seven-time world champion (the AEW World Championship definitely qualifies). It may be disputed whether the ROH championship should count as of 2022 when ROH is not currently an independent promotion, but I would argue that it does since it is a “World” championship recognized as such in AEW storylines. 64.186.57.201 (talk) 05:00, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Can you point out where it says that? I see the line Within the WWF/WWE, Jericho is a six-time world champion, but no general statements about him being a six-time world champ. — Czello 19:40, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

I must have misread that the first time and failed to notice the qualifier “Within WWF/WWE”. I may have also failed to notice how to respond to you in the previous thread, so I’m making a new post 2600:6C48:747F:B225:24FE:12F2:F8DD:5D02 (talk) 02:08, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

No problem. Just so you know you can always click "edit" either at the top or at a section heading to reply. I've removed this heading to merge it into the section above. — Czello 19:49, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Attitude Era

Request to include at least one mention and link to Attitude Era in article, as Jericho debuted in WWF during AE and was a major star/champion during AE. 130.45.24.168 (talk) 02:51, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Multiple spelling errors

As others have mentioned, I don't know why this article is locked - a lot of spelling errors have went unedited. Kevin "Ownes" in the "List of Jericho" section is the first. Then "next feud were against", "againt Evil Power Struggle", "in ten-man tag team match" in the NJPW section. I'm sure I would find more if I kept canvassing 73.160.30.33 (talk) 23:06, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
