I would have to say that Canada definitely produces the best wrestlers; I don’t know why. I think Canada is a big wrestling country, and there are a lot of guys who are interested in wrestling in Canada. – Chris Jericho
I always played hockey, I was always a hockey fan, but I was never bitten by the hockey bug… I never looked into playing it professionally. – Chris Jericho
I have a journalism degree, but I’d rather be the person who is being written about rather than the person who is writing. – Chris Jericho
