Chris Jericho - The Best in the World: At What I Have no Idea

I always say that my Jerichoholics are the Best Fans in the World, and I mean it. Its for that reason that I decided to put my money where my mouth is, and I posted a message on my Facebook and Twitter pages to announce that I was inviting all of YOU to write the foreword for this book. A few weeks later, after reading through literally hundreds of submissions, I chose my favorite. But I enjoyed looking at all of them, and I thank you if you took the time to write something for me. So if you submitted a piece and see me on the street, come and tell me so I can shake your hand!!

I mentioned in my original post that I wouldnt announce the winner until this book was published. So... heres your winner!

W ho is the real Chris Jericho?

WWE Superstar? Rock Star? New York Times bestselling author? Inventor? Dancer? TV host? Podcaster?

The answer is ALL OF THE ABOVE, but theres so much more. If there is one thing that Chris has proven throughout his life, its that you can be anything you want to be.

Ive read Chriss other books, and he really is a great storyteller who remembers every detail, every feeling, every emotion. The awkward moments and total disasters hes experienced will have you roaring with laughter, because he manages to turn even the most bizarre situations into funny moments. This is one of Chriss most endearing qualities; his hunger for living every moment to the fullest, never having a dull minute and creating positivity wherever he goes. So when I heard that he was looking for someone to write his foreword, I knew that I had to sit down and write. It would truly be an honor to be a part of his legacy.

Fellow Jerichoholics will stand proud with me when I say that Chris is a truly inspirational person. He has a certain charisma that so few carry, and the hairs on the back of my neck literally stand up when I hear the first few seconds of Break the Walls Down and know hes about to enter the WWE arena.

His amazing work with Fozzy has shown me his passion for music and entertainment. Influenced by Iron Maiden, the Beatles, and the Rolling Stones, Fozzys music is pure heart-pumping adrenaline, and Chris always pours his heart into his thought-provoking lyrics. (My personal favorite is Broken Soul.)

His show business rsum continues to grow, and I have gleamed with delight at his awe-inspiring performances on Dancing with the Stars, belly laughed at his hilarious Web series But Im Chris Jericho, and listened in awe to his riveting Talk Is Jericho podcast.

Now some might say that hes a crazy wildman, but for me he is genuinely one of the nicest guys Ive met. He doesnt judge, he has time for anyone, and he has great hair and tattoos! I met him after a Fozzy concert in 2008 and e-mailed his manager to ask if he could help me grant a wish for a sick child in Manchester, whose dream was to meet John Cena. Before I knew it, Y2J arranged it with the WWE and the little boys dream came true. Chris has a heart under that tough exterior; he is a kind, warm, and generous person, a good friend and family man.
