Oh, ya know, back when I was young, things were simpler. But this Jericho, now that’s somethin’ else! Not only do we got the ancient city of Jericho, but also, there’s a whole different Jericho goin’ on in the world of wrestling. I ain’t kiddin’ ya, it’s a wild ride! Let me tell ya about this “List of Jericho” thing, because it’s a real funny story.
Now, this whole mess started with a fella named Chris Jericho. I reckon you might’ve heard of him, he’s one of them wrestlers who can talk a mile a minute and look good doin’ it. Back in the day, he used to have this fancy scarf and walk around with a pen and paper like he was some kinda big shot. But what he was really doin’ was makin’ a list. Oh yes, a list of people he didn’t like. And I’m here to tell ya, it was one heck of a list!
The thing started on a WWE show back in September of 2016, if I remember right. Jericho was standin’ there, mad as a hornet at Mick Foley, the Raw General Manager. I guess they had a little disagreement, so Jericho, being the dramatic sort, decided to air all his grievances out loud. He got this piece of paper, started callin’ out names of folks he didn’t much care for, and bam—The List of Jericho was born.
But oh, here’s the kicker. While Jericho was goin’ off about Mick Foley, some folks came up to interrupt him. You had Enzo Amore, Big Cass, and a few other fellas comin’ at him from all directions. That’s when Jericho had the idea to make a new list. This wasn’t a list of problems with one man. No sir, this was a list of stupid idiots. Yup, that’s right, if you got on Chris Jericho’s nerves, you ended up on that list.
What’s on this list, you ask? Well, a whole bunch of folks! Jericho started by puttin’ down the likes of Mick Foley, but the list kept growin’ and growin’. Any person that messed with him, or even just said somethin’ silly in his direction, ended up gettin’ their name written down. It didn’t matter who ya were—you could be a wrestler, a commentator, or even just some poor soul who got in Jericho’s way. If you were on his bad side, you were on that list.
Now, I ain’t exactly sure how the whole thing caught on, but it did. It didn’t take long before the fans were chantin’ “List of Jericho!” every time Jericho came out to the ring. The crowd loved it! They loved the way Jericho would call folks out, put ’em on that list, and strut around like he was some kinda genius. It wasn’t just about the wrestlin’ anymore—it was about Jericho’s ability to make folks laugh and get riled up. And believe me, he had a gift for it.
What made this list so special? Well, it was funny, for one. Jericho’s insults were some of the best in the business. And it wasn’t just about the people he hated—it was about how he made fun of ’em. His “stupid idiots” line became famous, and every time someone made the list, you knew there was gonna be a good ol’ fashioned verbal beatdown comin’ right after.
But it wasn’t just about the insults. The “List of Jericho” had some real heart in it too. It became a symbol of Jericho’s wit and charm, even though it was all wrapped up in a pretty little bow of sarcasm. Fans started to love the idea of Jericho keepin’ track of all these folks who made his life miserable, and it gave the WWE Universe somethin’ fun to look forward to every week. The list didn’t just make Jericho a villain—it made him entertaining.
How’d it end? Well, like all good things, it didn’t last forever. Jericho eventually stopped doin’ the list. But the memories of it live on. And let me tell ya, I don’t think any of us will ever forget the day Jericho brought out that list and read off all them names. It was one of the most memorable moments in WWE history, and it’s still talked about to this very day.
Now, let me tell ya—this whole “List of Jericho” thing got me thinkin’ about somethin’ else. It made me think about the other Jericho—the ancient city Jericho. Now, that city’s got a history as long as my granny’s yarn. It’s been around for thousands of years, and let me tell ya, some of the things that happened there are as wild as any WWE match you’ve ever seen.
The city of Jericho is one of the oldest, most famous cities in the world. It’s in a place called the West Bank, and it’s been there since the times of the Bible. You know, back when Joshua marched around the walls and made ’em fall down. Talk about drama, huh? Well, that city sure has seen its fair share of it—wars, betrayals, and plenty of folks comin’ and goin’ over the centuries. And just like Chris Jericho with his list, that city’s got a story to tell!
So, in the end, whether we’re talkin’ about the wrestler or the city, there’s somethin’ special about Jericho. It’s a place, a name, a legacy that’s stuck around for a long time. And I reckon, just like the old city, the “List of Jericho” will be remembered long after it’s gone. It made us laugh, it made us cringe, and it sure did entertain us all the way through.
