There's no limit to what you can accomplish in the world of entertainment. It's all I've ever known since I was 19.
Chris JerichoI never second-guess myself. I could wrestle you right now and I know we'd have a good match. Right now. Let's go to the ring and don't even worry about it, let's go. Madison Square Garden. Let's do it. Once you feel that way, nothing can bring you down, nothing can stop you.
Chris JerichoI have passion for music just like I have passion for wrestling, just like I have passion for creating and acting.
Chris JerichoI'm a great whittler. I can whittle a marshmallow stick really quickly. I don't think anyone whittles anymore, they should!
Chris JerichoI remember when I was a kid that the only way to see Hulk Hogan wrestle was you'd have to go to the live shows. He was never on TV. So I thought "Why not do the same thing?"
Chris JerichoI want TNA to grow as a company, itโs better for me as a performer and me as a businessman. But how can they grow if every chance they get they are constantly talking about up north and the WWE?
Chris JerichoA live performance is the same no matter what genre it is. Wrestling, rock 'n roll, hosting, acting - it's the same thing.
Chris JerichoWell Stephanie, I'd like to thank you for giving me such a kind Christmas gift, but unfortunately I didn't get you any gifts. But then again, what can you get for the girl whose had everyone?
Chris JerichoI like to do something different that people don't expect. That's what I've always been about, in everything I do.
Chris JerichoGetting dragged, kicking and screaming out of the ring, begging for mercy from whomever it is that fires me, and never be seen again. That's how I wanna go out. Haha, yeah, I don't want any.. hero's goodbye, or a big send off. I don't want a retirement ceremony. That's not how I'm built, I just wanna disappear into the sunset and have people, 'Man, that guy was a jerk. Wow, I'm glad he's gone.'
Chris JerichoWhen you get some success, you want more. When you get one mountain climbed, you want to climb the next one.
Chris JerichoI don't ever really list things that I want to do. The only two things that I've ever wanted to do are be in a rock band and be a wrestler. Those were my two goals.
Chris JerichoI have a journalism degree, but I'd rather be the person who is being written about rather than the person who is writing.
Chris JerichoYou can't wrestle forever. It's a very physically taxing job. There's no doubt about it. Physically, and more importantly, mentally.

Chris JerichoComedy is commitment and playing a character and falling into the role, and I've been doing that since I was 19 years old.

Chris JerichoThe most important thing about being in wrestling is that you have to connect with the crowd, connect with the fans, and you either want them to love you, or to hate you. Either way, so long as they're reacting to what you're doing.
Chris JerichoX-Pac, I always thought you were a greasy haired, cheesey bandana wearing asshole that wore green and black tights. I now think you are a greasy haired, cheesey bandana wearing asshole that wears purple and black tights.
Chris JerichoTalking of first times Stephanie, I bet your first time was really memorable for you and the captain ot the football team .. and the basketball team .. and the softball team, the track team, the chess club and the pool boy!
Chris JerichoWhen youโre good at improv, even when youโre going to deliver somebody elseโs line that theyโve written, youโve got to nail it. And sometimes itโs not going to be as good as you think, and you have to not worry about hurting each otherโs feelings. All that matters is the product itself. All that matters is the show.
Chris JerichoLive events are notorious for being pressure free. Stress free. It's all about just doing the match. Doing what you feel.
Chris JerichoThe thing is, when you do a lot of different things and you have a lot of different projects on the go, each one feels more challenging and more rewarding than the last. That's why you do it.

Chris JerichoIn true rock star fashiuon, I had insomina last night and I didn't sleep at all. So all I need is a bottle of Jack Daniels and some groupies, and I'll be just like David Lee Roth.
Chris JerichoAn ordinary day. I get up early, drive to the airport, from there driving to the arena where we wrestle. Then if we have a show I will take another plane for my destination. Otherwise I will take a plane to return home and fall in bed very, very late.
Chris JerichoX-Pac, I feel terrible that you have to come out here and defend the integrity of a woman who has absolutely none. I mean as far as Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley is concerned the word honor means jump on her and stay on her. Well, let's spell that word H-O-N-O-R. I guess Stephanie is half of that. After all she is a filthy, dirty, disgusting, brutal, skanky, bottom feeding trash bog H-O. And no amount of defending will ever, EVER change that!
Chris JerichoSome things are going to work, some aren't. But there's always something new going on, so it's fun to watch and see what's coming next.
