II. Mini-Jericho Bio & Tidbits

       Real Name: Chris Irvine
       Former identities, names, nicknames: Lionheart, Y2J
       Other major organizations wrestled in: ECW(1995-1996), WCW(1996-
       1999), WWF(1999-Current)
       Former Managers/Bodyguards: Ralphus(WCW, August 1998-March 1999),
       Howard Finkel(WWF, August 1999-September 1999), Curtis Hughs(WWF,
       September 1999-October 1999)
       Major Titles Held: ECW TV Title, WCW Cruiserweight Title(4), WCW
       TV Title

               Was trained in at Stu Hart's dungeon and started at Stampede
       wrestling. Brought into ECW in 1995. Had a TV title reign in ECW
       in 1996 before leaving for WCW later that year.

               In summer '97 won first WCW gold by winning Cruiserweight
       title from Syxx, but lost it to Alex Wright a month later. Won
       it back from Wright a month later, but lost it a month later to
       Eddy Gurrerro.

               In January '98 Jericho started to show his heel role by
       proclaiming all his fans, "jerichoholics!" and always trashing
       the arena whenever he lost a match. Later that month he started
       his 3rd Cruiserweight Title reign by defeating Rey Mysterio Jr.,
       he also gave Rey a knee injury during that match, which put him
       out for several months.

               He lost the title to Dean Malenko that May at Slamboree, but
       after many loopholes, Jericho finally got the title handend back
       to him in mid-June after he stated that the NWA rulebook said he
       didn't have to face an opponent without his approval. Jericho lost
       the title to Rey Mysterio Jr. at the July PPV, Bash at the Beach,
       but got the belt back the next night after he pointed out that in
       the NWA rulebook, if a suspended wrestler effects the outcome of
       a title match(which Malenko did), the belt must be handed back to
       the original champ. Eventually Jericho lost the title to Juventud
       Gurrerra at the August PPV Road Wild, with Dean Malenko as ref.

               The next day on Nitro, Jericho won the TV title from Stevie
       Ray, subbing for an injured Booker T. Jericho held on to the title
       for 3 months and 20 days before losing it to Konnan on the
       November 30 Nitro.

               Jericho lost a rematch against Konnan at Starrcade and
       entered into a feud with Perry Saturn. They faced each other at
       the January PPV, Souled Out where the loser had to wear a dress
       for 90 days. Jericho won after he had some help from ref, Charles
       Dickonson. They fought a return match at the February PPV,
       Superbrawl 9, where Jericho won by DQ after Saturn decked out the
       ref(who happened to be Dickinson again). Saturn then had an
       extended 30 days to wear his dress. They fought one last time at
       Uncensored in a chain match, at first Jericho ordered his
       bodyguard, Ralphus, to go into the chain match, but he refused
       and left Jericho after 6 months of loyalty. Jericho ended up
       losing the match, in April he competed in the US title tournament,
       but lost and got an injury later that month, then disappeared off
       WCW television.

               Talks were broiling upon this point weather or not Jericho
       would sign with the WWF. Jericho was going no where in his WCW
       career and it seemed like he was going to be stuck as mid-carder
       for life. Jericho ended up signing with the WWF.

               The last time we saw Jericho on WCW TV was at the June PPV,
       The Great American Bash, where during a falls anywhere match
       between Sting and Rick Steiner, they battled back to the WCW
       Internet Broadcasting booth where you saw Jericho commentating.

               Jericho finished up his WCW contract doing house show and
       debuted in the WWF in August interrupting an interview with the
       Rock. He ended up getting Howard Finkel to be his lackey, but
       dumped after a month of using him. He then got Curtis Hughs, but
       got read of his services after having him for a month as well.

               Jericho got his first major WWF Title shot at the Survivor
       Series where he faced Chyna for the IC belt. He ended up losing,
       and got Revenge the next day by battering her hand with a hammer.

               The future seems to hold many possibillities for Jericho in
       the WWF and it looks that he can be one of there most promising
       talents.
