Chris Jericho was recently interviewed by The Independent in the U.K. Here are a few highlights:
Vince McMahon sticking up for him and why WWE won’t turn John Cena heel:
“I remember in Madison Square Garden there was a dad with his son in the elevator who asked for an autograph and as much as it pained me as I have a son, I just stared ahead, it’s all part of it and nowadays no one wants to do it. Vince loves it because it’s old school, he gets it, it’s heat. Vince had my back with anything I did, for example when I caused the crowd to pelt me with glow sticks in London, DX was furious, Stephanie was furious, they wanted me fined and suspended but Vince goes ‘no you’re a heel’.
“I learnt in WCW that that NWO were cool heels, just by being up there they were so likable and cool, there was nothing I could do to get a reaction, and I might as well have been a heel. That’s why they don’t turn John Cena heel, all the people that booed him will end up loving him, it would be a waste of time.
The new breed WWE Superstars:
“I kind of am like the Nostradamus of WWE, I predicted that all of those guys will get over, with Cesaro we had a tour of Japan last year and I specifically asked to work with him and with Bray Wyatt when I went to work with NXT I said to put me with that guy.”
