Chris Jericho has been a very busy man as of late, as he recently wrestled Kenny Omega at Wrestle Kingdom 12 inside the Tokyo Dome on January 4. Jericho lost the match to Omega, but it appears that he’s not done with New Japan Pro Wrestling, as he seems to be building toward a match with Tetsuya Naito.
Jericho has been wrestling for a long time and he’s inspired many wrestlers who are currently trying to make a name for themselves.
NXT star Roderick Strong recently paid tribute to Jericho when he used the Liontamer during a match at a NXT live event, and the official NXT Twitter account posted a video of the move.

A 20 year old man named Shane Missler from Florida has been making headlines as of late thanks to the fact that he won a massive Mega Millions lottery jackpot.
Missler was recently trending on Twitter and Nick Jackson of The Young Bucks decided to jokingly ask the new multi-millionaire if he wants to start a wrestling company.
