January 14, 2021 | News | No Comments
During a recent interview with the Wrestling Voice radio show, former WWE star Chris Jericho spoke about his time on Dancing with the Stars, his metal band Fozzy, WWE banning the word “wrestling” and whether he’ll return to WWE. Here are some highlighs of what Chris Jericho said about:
WWE Supporting Him On DWTS
“I don’t see why they wouldn’t want to support it 100%, you have an audience of 23 million every week and hearing the words WWE every single week and seeing one of their guys performing on a whole different level and wowing people and breaking the stereotypes of what a wrestler is and what a wrestler does, but some of it was a no brainer for them.”
Dancing As ‘Chris Irvine’ One Week On DWTS:
“I was dancing for my Mom and that week was a very open and raw performance, and it was the producers idea to have me dance as Chris Irvine, which was a cool experience, it was a very moving performing and fitting.”
WWE Banning The Word “Wrestling”
“As long as there is a ring nag guys in spandex throwing each other around it’s gonna be wrestling, you can call it what you want but if it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck and moves like a it’s a duck, it’s always gonna be wrestling.”
Whether He Will Return To WWE
“Everybody asks, ‘when are you coming back?’ and I don’t know if I’ll ever come back, I have no plans of it… I still love the WWE, I love watching it, but I don’t know if I’ll ever come back.”
Other topics discussed include, hosting the Golden God awards, the next Fozzy record, Edge’s retirement, Zack Ryder and his latest book. You can listen to the podcast on iTunes by clicking here.
