Chris Jericho Talks About If He Considers Himself A Legend or Not

July 28, 2020 / By mobanmarket

Scott Fishman of TV Insider recently interviewed longtime WWE Superstar Chris Jericho ahead of the premiere of his new Travel Channel special, The Legend Of Chris Jericho.
During the interview, Jericho was asked whether or not he considers himself a legend due to the fact that he has accomplished so much both in and out of the ring. Below is what Jericho said:
“I think I would be a pretty big assh*le to call myself a legend,” Jericho said. “Some people say that I have some sort of legendary status. And if someone says that, thank you very much. I’m more than happy to accept that. It’s hard for you to call yourself a legend. Although I did call myself the living legend in WWE. So, if you look back in 2004, my character definitely thought he was a legend.”

Jericho continued, “Me, I’m just a guy who likes to do a lot of different things. I don’t put boundaries on myself. When I was a kid, I wanted to be in a rock ‘n’ roll band and a wrestler. I’ve done both those things at very high levels. That has enabled me to do other stuff like write books, do podcasts, YouTube shows. I have a great fanbase that follows me into whatever I do because they know I put a thousand percent into every project I’m a part of. And I turn down a lot of stuff too.”
