The Independent in the UK has an interview with Chris Jericho, who was promoting Fozzy’s upcoming tour in the UK in March and the WWE Network launching in the UK. During the interview, Jericho was asked about Vince McMahon’s recent comments about the current locker room failing to grab the brass ring.

“Vince is Vince, he has opinions and that’s really all that matters,” Jericho said. “If he doesn’t think that some guys are grabbing the brass ring then some of the guys better do what they can to stand out and step up. I had to do it back in 1999 and 2000. I did it again in 2007 and 2008, and I did it again in 2012. You have to reinvent yourself, if something isn’t working you need to change the direction.

“If you need a boost and a shot in the ass you’ve got to make sure that you do that. Nobody is going to take care of you except for yourself, nobody is ever going to come up with the magic plan and say ‘here you go, here’s the magic wand.’ If something isn’t working you have to change it, make it better.

“John Cena did it. Remember the days when he was just a nameless, faceless guy? He started rapping and suddenly became the biggest name in the business. Nobody did that for John, he did it himself. He came up with these characters and then somebody went ‘wow that’s something we can do something with!'”
