[1998-03-05-WCW-Thunder] Chris Jericho feature

Talk about it here.

Jericho in a black and white video vignette spewing his nonsense. Tony classifies it as gaga appropriately. Jericho was so hateable right now and clamoring for someone to take him down a peg. Amazing transformation in two months.

Jericho is great in this. I don't know about black and white as a production choice just because it doesn't fit his character so much, but his work is excellent in this. Easily the freshest guy in WCW who I wish had been in the WWF already at this point since they would have probably jumped on it and pushed him much harder.

Is this his first use of Jerichoholics? Either way, this is such a great example of a guy getting himself over with just a little but of TV time to build his character.

It's not the first use of Jerichoholics but it may be the first time he declares himself our role model and a Paragon of Virtue ™. I wish Bo Dallas had this kind of an edge to him when he was running this gimmick. The fact that Jericho is legitimately dangerous on top of being delusional and funny is really what puts him over the top as a compelling character.

Great stuff once again from late 90's Jericho. For some reason I remembered the lights coming on and him getting hit with the boom mic and him throwing a tantrum. I guess I'm thinking of something else. Anyway, great stuff as he may be the best promo in WCW now that Flair is MIA.
