Chris Jericho is the first undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the WWE and WCW, and has been called one of the fifty greatest wrestlers of all time. Now retired, he is writing his memoir "A Lion's Tale: Around the World in Spandex", telling the story of his journey from wrestling school in Canada to his time in leagues in Mexico and Japan to his big break in the WCW. He'll dish the dirt on how he worked his way through the ranks alongside major wrestling stars like Chris Benoit and Lance Storm to become a major superstar.

This guy is the MAN! Great talent, Great worker, Great mick skills. Superly smart. Hes up there with the Rock and Austin when it comes to mick skills, maybe even better. In fact it was those two that pushed Vince to give him a push with his first title win.

Chris is one of the very few wreslters that have class,a straigh gimmick that lets people know who he is,and always leaves memories.He's technical,he's got unique mic skills,he's charismatic and he's not an "everyday face".I started watching wrestling in 1999 when he debuted.Actually the 1st thing i saw from wrestling was Y2J.Since then i dnt care if he's a heel or a face he's my number 1.He can switch from heel to face in a heartbeat,so he's golden for the WWE which doesnt seem to realize it

Chris Jericho is a future hall of famer for sure he's been everywhere there is to be Japan, Germany, Mexico, ECW, WCW,WWE, 9 time ic champion, 6 time world champion, first ever undisputed champion, has had some of the greatest matches ever wrestlemania 19 with Shawn Micheals match of the night and there where alot of good matches that night, his great matches with RVD, his work in the cruiserweight division one of the guys that put that style on the map and with all he's done he still comes back to put young guys over.

You took the words right out my mouth. At first when I started watch wrestling Jericho was just in my top 10 favs but then something happened.. can't really explain it but then he became my number one. I had stopped watching wrestling before Jericho left.. thought i was getting too old for it. But then my lil bro got me into again and I just kept wishing Jericho would come back... and low and behold he did. thank god.. now he can save us from the mediocre talent that has plagued wrestling

This is an excellent book , any fan of wrestling should definately read it . You get to see a different side of Chris Jericho and an inside look at the wrestling business. I can't believe everytime someone mentions wrestling there is an idiot that will say " you know it's fake right ?" . It's as if they are jealous that we enjoy watching it . Most wrestling fans are in the know and still watch it with enthusiam . .

Im a #1 fan of chris jericho and WWE. What he is saying is 100% right. I started to watch wrestling when i was 8 and it was all becuz my grandfather use to watch it. When it comes to acting and morality I totally agree with jericho . Today I'm considered the most intelligent guy of my class and my family and its all becuz I think as a Wwe superstar , I learn from them , not just kicking asses.

I was training there in 1998. But I got married soon after and couldn't travel so much, so I quit. But the point is to go to a school that has the reputation and conections. Those other schools do too. Keep active, play other sports if there is no wrestling. Alot of guys come from all different sports. And it's good you go to a gym. God Bless! You must have the heart to fight cancer. Just keep working towards your dream and good luck!

Jericho was an amazing heel back in WCW days, and when he debuted in WWF, that was one of the most shocking moments ever. His father is iDENTICAL to him, holy jeepers creepers, i mean i thought it was Chris's face photoshopped on that hockey card.
