What do you think of Randy Orton becoming the latest internet hero with his #RKOVines videos?
AnarchyCakeEater386 karma
Do you feel like WWE dropped the ball on Bray Wyatt? I thought he looked like a complete joke in his feud with Cena so I appreciated that you took him more seriously.

Is there any WWE star that you've 'accidentally' slipped in a good punch? Repercussions?
Chris_Jericho974 karma
I punched HBK's wife in the face by accident for real. It was awful. I wrote all about it in my new book.
TehLoneWanderer101316 karma
Was yelling out "Oh my god, I killed Juvi!!" planned or improvised?
ArabianDisco294 karma
What happened to Lights Go Out being in WWE 2K15?
It's not listed in the official press release!

Hey Chris, huge fan of your work in WWE. You hinted at potentially getting Paige on your podcast soon. Any updates on that?
judomonkeykyle173 karma
What was the last movie you saw in the theater? Last album you bought?
ashgotti172 karma
Hey Chris! Long time listener, first time caller. Can you please release an "I'm from Winnipeg, you idiot!" shirt?
In all seriousness, have you gotten in trouble for anything you've said or done in the ring? Do any incidents stand out?
two_off133 karma
What over-the-top summary of one of the adventures in your book would you use to sell me on buying it?
Chris_Jericho226 karma
Michaels vs Jericho classic 2008 feud ....and Joe Perry calls me a douche. Nuff said!
judomonkeykyle125 karma
Avenged Sevenfold is on here tomorrow, can you give me an interesting story to bring up on their AMA?
mrsantos24122 karma
What made you want to start Talk is Jericho? Also which of the new talent that WWE has signed would you love to work with?
ericdnelsonit113 karma
If you were to sit down and watch the WWE Network for a day, what would you binge on? A certain wrestler? Certain PPV? Time frame? Thanks!
ReignierCOC107 karma
Thank you for the AMA, Mr. Jericho. As for my question -
Who was your favorite talent to wrestle in WWE?
SlightlyJames101 karma
Have you ever sneezed/seen someone else sneeze in front of Vince? What was his reaction?
evancrss100 karma
You don't mention much in your book about your 2010 departure from the WWE. How did you put that storyline together? Were there plans for you to return and feud with Orton?
Chris_Jericho311 karma
the plan was for me to return and feud with Orton for Wrestlemania. I chose to do DANCING WITH STARS instead
hgoodman8184 karma
Do you think the wrestling business is better off now (PG, concussion awareness, no blood, etc) or during the peak Monday Night War era (better creatively, more jobs with three companies, worse medical checks in place, etc)?
wrathofrath69 karma
CHRIS! Huge fan of yours. I have to buy new WCW Monday Night Jericho shirts every two years or so when they get worn out. Your podcast is the nuts too!
1) I know you put a lot of praise behind DDPyoga and what it has done for you; I mean, after all, you're in your 40s and you're still jumping off the top of steel cages! Has DDPyoga actually been that large of a factor for why you can still compete at such a high level at your age?
2) Any plans on coming back to WWE after your current tour?
GamerSDG67 karma
Thanks for doing this.
Of your feuds, which one you feel was under rated?
joehbear67 karma
Hey Chris, any chance the famous top-pony-tail hair will ever return to my TV? For the kids, Chris
loufilerman60 karma
If you could liontame anyone in the public eye today, who would it be?
Havins59 karma
Awesome! Y2J!
What do you believe are the keys to putting on a five-star match and what do you consider your favorite match of all time (either one you were in or not)?
ArabianDisco46 karma
What is the situation with Paul Di Leo and Jeff Rouse in Fozzy?
Very confused as to what's going on.
Chris_Jericho81 karma
Jeff is in and he's amazing. Perfect fit for the band and a great guy! Paulie's split was mutual and amicable
fishwithabunni40 karma
Hi Chris! I'm curious : Do you play video games at all? With your kids? I know that video games are pretty popular with wrestlers, because they travel a lot. What is your favorite video game of all time, if any?
angelsNinsects34 karma
Got 2 unrelated questions for you. 1. I live in Winnipeg and was wondering what your favorite thing about this city is? and 2. What do you think is the greatest Metal album of all time/your favorite of all time?
Chris_Jericho66 karma
Too many to mention. Being stranded in a war zone in Iraq is up there tho!
stillguggin16 karma
How often do you come back home to Winnipeg? What in Winnipeg inspired you to become a wrestler? Also could you recommend a restaurant?
danram20713 karma
Hey Chris! I work with VH1 and was so ticked they didn't let us know you were in the house yesterday! I had to watch from a TV at my desk like a fool.
Anyways, did you approach Asa Akira for the podcast or vice versa? Of all the people, she seems so random lol. You never fail to impress me with your guests!
Chris_Jericho30 karma
We have the same publishing agent and I thought she would be interesting. I was right
BigFraz6113 karma
If Fozzy had the opportunity to go on tour with Iron Maiden or Judas Priest, which one would you choose?
bigtice9 karma
Hey Chris, I’ve been a long time fan back since your Lionheart days in WCW and am still holding out hope that you’ll get another title run in the WWE before you hang up your boots. Since you’ve been dabbling in entertaining us in all forms in one way or another, my question was just to ask if you’re going to be making any new “But I’m Chris Jericho” episodes? Thanks for doing this AMA with us and I still think your WWF debut was one of the best, if not the best, EEEVER.
Chris_Jericho11 karma
BICJ has won a slew of awards and I'd love to do more! In the mean time I just shot a web series called 'Code 5" for Comedy Central that is equally funny. Should be released early next year.
bigjeffrey8 karma
Did Vince McMahon really not recognize Ken Shamrock as one of Mickey Rourke's bodyguards?
ArabianDisco6 karma
Did the band ever consider playing Wormwood live or was it far too difficult to ever pull off?
brandmed5 karma
I've always had only a slight interest in wrestling, but I am a big fan of yours mostly from your appearances on VH1's "I Love the..." series. You were really funny on those. What was your experience like making those?
I recently began listening to your podcast too. Great entertainment while I'm running.
ZigglersHEEL4 karma
You've always been one of my favorite wrestlers. You're so god damn entertaining. How much fun were you having with the conspiracy angle?! You going to DC was absolute GOLD!!
wheresjah874 karma
You're debut in the WWF ( then it was anyway) might be my favorite of all time. Did you come up with the Y2J idea and what happened that night in Chicago? If not, who did?
crandamaniac2 karma
Love the new book and the podcast. Everybody always asks what is your favorite match, but what would you consider your most underrated match, the match that you had that you loved, that not a lot of people seemed to either know about or loved as much as you?
HonkyMahFah2 karma
Hey Chris -- thanks for making wrestling fun to watch! Been a fan since the Ralphus JPS days. Here's the question:
When you won The Dating Game back in WCW days, was that real and did you really go on the Hawaiian vacation with the blonde hottie?
Bertigo2 karma
Do you have any hope for the future of TNA? Who would you like to see sign with WWE?
Call_Me_Tugboat2 karma
I love your show, but hate the cowbell.
How about a compromise....only one show a week with it?
ArabianDisco1 karma
If you had to play a cover live other than Eat the Rich, what would you pick?
RebJas1 karma
Chris, huge fan dating back to your ECW days. What do you think about Pearl Jam and/or The Black Keys?
Cycopather887 karma
So... who is /u/MetsFan4Ever?
