- Chris Jericho shoots on working with Chyna in WWE and how she was terrible to work with. He states that "she thought she was good" Chris Jericho is a legend in the pro wrestling business
In my opinion, I believe Jericho and Eddie both elevated her career.
They carried her.
@Matt M Shawn and Trips got her over as a character, but Eddie and especially Chris had to wrestle her and make her look good
@Matt M What about them? Yeah. They were responsible for her being there and becoming a houshold name, But Jericho and Eddie both elevated her career big time like I said.
And X Pac
@@mustafaniazi2917 I honestly don't think XPac made a big difference in her career like Jericho or Eddie. Not Really.
Just wait till he retires and talks shit of the AEW roster. 😂😂
🤡
I heard he does it to make himself look good
@Make You Seethe hahahaha true
@Make You Seethe yea look what he's doing to jacksonville
Facts
Wow he says Vince said "don't treat her like a woman treat her like a wrestler" and then her theme music was "don't treat me like a woman, don't treat me like a man"🤯
🤣🤣
Lol i was thinking of that
🤣🤣🤣 awesome comment!!
“Don’t beat my ass like a man but don’t ragdoll me like the woman I am either, go easy enough on me for it to look competitive.”
when Jerico couldn't make her look good, it was clear she can't wrestle.
At least Chyna took the business seriously and tried unlike Sable
Are you serious right now Sable worked her ass off. Chyna did too. Chyna didn't have Vince trying to put his pen*s in her everyday for one.
Well 1 is a wrestler & the other a model

This is for all the women who want to be me, and the men who come to see me! 😂
@@ChristianUtama if Chyna wasn't a wrestler then half if not 80% of today's modern female wrestlers aren't either, Alexa Bliss is on tv and she's one of the worse?? Make it make sense pal, love her or hate her, Chyna shits on the whole womens locker room

@@brianflo6988 Also the Ankle lock, STFU, Figure 4 leg lock and Sharpshooter 😂😂
I’ve been on the receiving end as well lol. Walls of Jericho and the Steiner recliner really did hurt more than I ever expected lol.
You could tell the age of a person depending on if they call it the Liontamer or Walls of Jericho lol.
@@TheGreen8astard those r 2 diff moves
I respect Chyna , R.I.P Some fantastic memories
yeah she came off to me as a really troubled person, not all bad for sure
Same why all the hate for her all of a sudden I wonder. It’s really weird to just randomly trash someone who is no longer with us when you don’t have to. I’m a Jericho fan but that was very unnecessary. Just say no comment and move on. I bought it as a kid that she could hang with some of the guys. No need to ruin people’s childhood or her legacy-even if it were the way you felt about it.

Because the Bossman Vinnie loved his Big Muscle almost 2 meters Wrestlers in the 80s/90s.
A lot of them couldn't hold a candle to the likes of Bret Hart, Dean Malenko, Ric Flair, Ricky Steamboat or other technical Wrestlers.
@@continuumsanctum869 I understand Vince's likes and dislikes. However Chyna was employed for a reason. Even Big Show and Kane were surprised at how much Hate Chyna got from other wrestlers when all she did was do her job. Funny how Chris is speaking now and did not say these things to her when she was alive. HE Even put her over a few times. I think Chyna's relationship with Trips helped her alot in WWF as in her branding. Its a shame she never gets right of reply.
@@kellyboxer-paki243
Y2Jericho was happy to be back in the WWF. He had a good pop with the fans, but still was just one of many.
_Criticizing Vincent Kennedy McMahon decision was out of the question..._
Chyna (her look) was extreme and unique, that's what was selling her.
She had a relatively high paying/low traveling contract iirc.
Of course the 300+ days a year to house show travellers/old guards were not amused 😤😠
Hence the animosity.
@@continuumsanctum869 Yet Chris prided himself on being upfront with people yet chooses to speak these things..his views when she has no right of reply. Not cool.
I remember when Chyna slammed the cage door on Mick Foley’s head at Summerslam ‘97. And that was the old school blue cage which was solid steel. Mick wrote something in his book saying something like it was the most pain he’s ever been in.
Foley likes to lay it on thick. He took like 20 chair shots from The Rock.
I’m guessing Chyna slamming the door on him also hurt more than getting his ear ripped off.
@@Him_Downstairs36 I've taken neither so I'm willing to believe Mick on this one.
I have that Summerslam PPV. It one of my favourite PPVs of all time. I cringe at that spot every time. It looked a bit of a botch moment and it makes sense Foley wrote about that one..
Foley had his head in the wrong spot, not Chyna's problem.
@@Cablev94 I don't believe there is a "right spot" to get your head slammed by anything.
I remember when he broke the bottle over her head. 😆😂🤣
Probably had enough of her lol
Remember when he smashed her hand with a hammer? Lol
Was probably a little cathartic for him
How was court? Are you holding up okay? Your lawyer was a jerk
😂
In his book Undisputed she complained to Vince that Jericho gave her a black eye in their IC title match, Vince got angry at Jericho and said something like
"She's a woman Chris!"
In whose book, Jericho's? Then it's hearsay because he can't prove it, and even if it did happen the reason Vince yelled at him is because it was on purpose, he is a fragile small man inside and he compensates by taking steroids and assaulting women, so let's set aside China for a moment because I can see the argument that it was part of the job, there is a well-known UA-cam video where he attempts to assault a woman in a parking lot, men that assault women are trash, and the only people that idolize Jericho are people that are like him, narcissists oh, look how pathetic his chest looks now that he's getting older, trying to hold on to what little former glory he had, just another overrated POS that got way more than he deserved
It wouldn't be the last time he did that
That’s just not taking leadership of the situation. That’s why it’s never going to be a good idea to do intergender single matches.

Thank you everyone for the 458 likes to my comment, I really appreciate it..... truly....
This generation is sooo in their feelings. He's telling us what he experienced with her in the ring. Something that fans, who stood in the audience, can't say otherwise to. There are other wrestlers who will vouch for him about Chyna. You kids have no problem with wrestlers saying Ahmad Johnson, ultimate warrior, Ryback, Nia Jax, etc. were terrible to work with though. You don't become a saint when you die. People still had experiences with you. Some good, some bad. That's life.
Based comment 🗿
Utterly based. The over sentimentality in this comment section is hilarious.
Well said.
Terrible but all these years later, still relevant. She was stiff because she was trying to compete with men twice her size. Jericho, don’t forget that Chyna was ALREADY a star and being pushed when you came in. She started your career buddy, IMO.

Yeah what exactly are you saying
What??
I get you they don’t have no mixed matches like how may young would catch a stunner
Well wrestling surprisingly is more than just wrestling. Chyna was definitely a bigger draw than Jericho back then. She was doing him a favor.
Chyna HAD the potential to stay on top. She was tall, strong, had an intimidating look. She needed to learn how to wrestle, if she wrestles stiffly she has to understand other people are going to return that stiffness and either accept it or wrestle safer (I would vouch for wrestling safe, so as to have a long career). She needed to work on promos. It's good that she tried to get a high amount of pay, but upon failing that, she could asked what she can improve on to get to that level.
Were or are you a wrestler? Curious. I used to be before you want to ask.
@@HavocQPandemoniumOffical Oh no, I'm not a wrestler, I just listened to a bajillion wrestling interviews. It seems that whoever wrestles intensely has a short career due to injuries. and those that work slower, but make every move count toward the story of the fight, have more success and a longer career.
I don't believe Chyna was in the right frame of mind during that time. She was a big star wwe, but she was demanding wrestlemania main eventer pay. I think her relationship falling apart with HHH and her history of issues played a bigger role than most realize
If she would be alive today she would make it. Big with an of account

It is hard to watch a legend of wrestling speak ill of the dead. And might I add a true pioneer of this sport.
Is he lying though
Jericho said all this while she was alive. Just no one cared about Chyna until she died.
Speaking ill? Hardly
No she was far from a pioneer, she absolutely sucked as a wrestler. She was roided up and banging Hunter so of course Vince thought she was something cause he is obsessed with bodybuilding. She was so lousy as a wrestler she couldn't even take a stone cold stunner properly. So when the WWF finally parted ways with her she had to do porn to pay for her drugs because by that point everyone knew she was garbage in the ring. Eddie Guerrero and Jericho made her look decent and that's the only reason marks thought Chyna was talented.
You acting like he called her a bitch he’s just criticizing her skills and booking not a big deal
Kids can't separate , a person from there job... he saying she sucked at wrestling, but not talking down about the person
Agreed however for him to say she was terrible to work with suprises me , firstly he himself said she was good before . There’s no doubt that’s an insult , it kind of his putting her down as well if your a wrestler and some one says you weren’t a very good wrestler your going to feel insulted .

I’m not saying all intergender should be banned . Some times it makes sense , like when Bheluh beat the crap out of Bill Alfonso . Or if a guy hits a woman to get nuclear heat or further a storyline where he gets his ( like Jake Roberts smacking Elizabeth). But the other 90% of the time it’s stupid . It’s unbelievable and makes the guy look bad . It is just feminist and woke pandering that does not belong in wrestling .

Strange. I was at Survivor Series 99 at Joe Louis Arena. That intercontinental championship match was the second strongest match on the show .I was on the main floor at ring side . Great looking match. It's all perception I guess.
That's because Jericho carried her through the match, it's only when I've got older that I've realised that with wrestlers like Jericho, Angle, Eddie, Shawn Michaels, Benoit etc. They've made so many people look good, hence why some people's only good match is against them

Got a link to the podcast ?
@@Respect12948 no one knows who this guy is
He looks kinda high. Maybe he's on cloud 9 not giving any fucks.
@@bustersales6921 cap
Chyna was still one of the most enjoyable wrestlers to watch. So jealous of anyone that got to see her live.
Chris Jericho: “she couldn’t really beat up guys.”
Bro…you’re a pro wrestler. It’s fine to say she sucked, but come on. You pinned Ken Shamrock all the time…
He also kicked Goldberg's ass in real life though
Exactly ... he’s just salty that he was selected to put her over
@@deejay1921 nah, he talks about it in his second book.
he was told to not go easy on her because she was a woman, so he didnt.
she complained and because she was dating HHH at the time he got in trouble for it.
@@joekavac5859 LMAO no he didn't
@@joekavac5859 bahahaha such an overstatement.
Chyna was an inspiration for me. Re-evaluating everything though, yeah I felt it was more of novelty than actual talent. Jacqueline, Jazz, Mighty Molly, and Lita were the ones who really brought the wrestling to the women for Chyna's generation.
This is the True Geordie podcast for reference.
AHH the bullying wanker and sexual deviant
Yea
Dude she’s dead let her rest
I shall call Jericho, even tho I like him;
His new name from me is ‘MeMe’ cause everything always while speaking does it go back to him somehow lol.
Yeah weird interview seems like he wants credit for making chyna look good but she’s dead. What’s the point really he still alive he can generate all the credit he wants. Let her be remembered however people chose to remember her.
🤡
@@zack6892
Whether she's dead or alive, truth is still truth. It's ridiculous to expect him to lie for her just because she's dead.
She wasn't a good worker and he made her look good. Period.
@@serotonin5852 yeah I guess I just don’t see the point. She played her part in the best era in wrestling. Not even a fan of hers but just seems like it was in bad taste. He could say the truth without sounding so bitter I mean obviously things are working out better for him what more does he want? I could see if she was being portrayed as this ultimate female wrestler but mostly she just gets dragged for her relationship with hunter, her appearance and now how she worked in the ring. I don’t get all the hate she isn’t even the worst female wrestler to ever be pushed and as far as wrestler in general she isn’t even top 10 pos.
He talks about himself in HIS interview? How dare he
Need to put a full link to the video
He talks down on everyone. I’m really thinking it’s more of a self reflection cause he’s not that good of a wrestler, just was a popular one. So pretentious…
Jericho was one of the few people from the attitude era that was respected and talk greatly upon both from a business and backstage perspective. I've seen how terrible Chyna matches were
Well, she was overrated in my eyes... But so was Jericho the better part of his career... I mean he is good. But he ain't that good...
99-2002 Jericho was genuine electricity.
Everything since is basically a guy running around screaming that the rock and stone cold put him over on the same night because Kurt Angle said Jericho needed it more than him.
She thought she was good but she wasn't? A bit like you now Chris?
Chris now is better than Chyna was.
I just lost respect for him
Chyna died tragically all while being mismanaged her entire career. Really classy of Chris to kick a horse who died, came back, and died again. I really hope this clip is just out of context because this is pretty low.
He said this in one of his books long before she died.
@@JBSpookyReview makes sense. Jericho saying that kinda felt out of character otherwise.
Theres an old saying goes "If you don't have anything nice to say, just don't speak".
You’re 5
But it's okay for everybody to still mention stuff about HBK from the '90s? Or rag on Vince? Or all the other things that a lot of people in the wrestling community talk shit about. Dude grow up. If this was CM Punk everybody would have fucking rejoiced and jizzed all over themselves.
@@lukerojas9474 Nope. Im the last person to jizz all over on CM Punk. As a matter of fact, I stood by the same comment. Just don't speak if you got nothing nice to say. For Punk, I'm talking about his recent comments about WWE. For HBK, I'm not a fan of people still talking about him as he's already way beyond who he was in the 90s. And for Chyna, she's deceased. But she did wonders for the women's division too. Fans back then love what she did for the business. Props to Jericho for carrying her throughout the match. But there's no reason to bring out how she was stiff and such as that doesn't matter anymore.
@@tipicofutbalI’ll jizz all over CM Punk, if you guys are setting something up?
@@lukerojas9474”rag on Vince”, sir those are sexual assault and trafficking allegations made in a court of law.
Jericho can't sing.
“ I’m not talking bad about her” but the whole clip is him talking bad about her lmao 😂😂
He’s not wrong tho. Theres story’s from other wrestlers and video to back it up on how lost and uncoordinated she was to work with
Nope. He's giving info about how she worked. That's not bad. That's honest.
I think what Jericho is trying to say is that he respected Chyna as a person but he was just speaking of working with her in the ring.
A lot of this is the fault of Vince for telling him "treat her like a wrestler".
You shouldn’t speak ill of the dead . And just because you say your not talking bad about her , to u just did. I mean that’s just common decency.
I completely agree with you.
Sure. You're supposed to be one of those phony hypocrites that start treating ppl like saints just because they've died right?
Both of you are children I'm guessing. This was in 2011
Still the greatest woman in wrestling imo. The gimmick evoked just strong feelings from everyone
He’s always been salty.
What’s to be salty about ?? He’s literally a legend and he’s being honest. Chris made chyna seem better than she was. That’s how good he was
Just because someone is dead. We dont have to say they were the goat or whatever
Nah, he's just being honest.
@@CollectorsCorner777 he’s just butthurt that a woman was getting more praise than him 😭
@@wesleycuban8649 legend lmao 😭
Jericho is talking about a woman who's deceased and isn't here to defend herself. Very classy, Jericho.
So, because she's a woman and is dead, he's not allowed to be honest?
Thats horse 💩!
@@dawnmancaloriankeebals4262 yeah but that " she thought she was " part was totally unnecessary that's complete shit talk and not him being honest at all and if you think someone saying that kind of stuff is being honest you're D riding and need a reality check
@Lee Brown Ever thought that maybe it never came up in interviews whilst she was alive? If the interviewer doesn't ask Jericho about it, then why would he mention it?
You really should think things through!
He’s telling the truth ….
She chose her way out,get over it
So few people speak poorly of her. She herself admitted she wasn’t “the best” and got nervous. But she was also an actual worker who took real bumps. She didn’t pretend that she carried the matches and she was grateful to the men who worked with her - especially early on. The reality is that by the time Chris joined the WWF Chyna was a GIANT star, so yes, it was a good opportunity getting to work an angle with her. She was SO over. He undoubtedly did a lot of the “heavy lifting” in their matches but she held her own, always contributed and was absolutely a big part of the success. It’s a shame that Jericho’s ego won’t let him admit her greatness.
@apples 88 to me it sounds like he had personal issues with her and has decided to repackage that as being ""critiques"" for her in the ring. Either way, I don't see why he needed to say this at all and ESPECIALLY considering all she went through. I wish people could just let her rest now :(
He’s not speaking ill of her as a person he is saying she was not someone he enjoyed working with. Being over doesn’t make someone a great wrestler. It’s not just about selling the match. It’s about selling the match while keeping your coworker safe. I don’t think he’s having an ego moment personally.
Typical fandom post.
The ultimate Warrior was over too. Doesn’t mean he could wrestle.
"She held her own" debatable. Then when Jericho wrestled her like a man and gave her a black eye she complained to Vince, and Jericho got heat. I wouldnt have wanted to be in that position, no matter how over she was.
Chris, you are very well recognised for making her look good through that feud...
Hes just being a baby. Lmao. I liked Chyna better than him but I knew damn well he was the better wrestler by far.
Chris with the Facts
Nah.
I'm wondering what Chyna has to say about Jericho. We'll never know...
Jericho just mad he couldn't beat Chyna
People who have met him also say he's a total dickhead and full of himself. I can name 10 other wrestlers who were/are better than Jericho on the mic as well. He's not as great as he builds himself up to be. Don't get me wrong he was good...20 year's ago.
Except he beat up Goldberg.
Jericho is the Judas of all Wrestling.He back stabs everyone.
How’s being honest a back stab?
Nah Chyna was awesome.
I'm now sure Jericho is in a place to criticise given his AEW performances.
He is absolutely in a place to criticize. Despite how he is now for decades he was an excellent worker. Chyna on the other hand absolutely sucked her whole career. She didn't even know how to take the stunner right, and all you have to do is drop to your knees and gently bounce your chin off Austin's shoulder. She was such a hack she couldn't even do that.
@@darensparks she would still have bored you around with no problem
He's fucking middle aged I bet when you get his age you won't be able to move like him 🤣
@@darensparks literally a lot of people can't take a stunner. By your logic most women can't wrestle at all. Because I know you're not going to tell me that there's been better divas in China.
@@xerospades To hell with divas. Female wrestlers like Madusa and Sherri Martel were good workers who could go. Chyna sucked as a wrestler, just face it.
Chyna did the best she could seeing as she was pushed super hard when she was green as grass.
@@coleveeder117 They made it work. Had a pretty decent feud.
She was pushed so hard and dropped just a fast, in her passing they won't even acknowledge her. Chyna has a slot for HOF but the fact they can't put her in looks bad.... But at least Bellas made it in... 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
“They were pushing her really big, like she could beat up guys… but she couldn’t” -Chris Jericho
Did he forget what business he’s in? No duh she couldn’t actually beat them up. Just like Chris himself couldn’t actually beat up Ken Shamrock or Brock Lesnar. It’s not an actual combat sport; it’s sports entertainment.
When I was a kid during the attitude era, Lita was my girl 😏🤤
I always liked watching Bull Nakano, she could actually wrestle and was strong as hell but could also work off the top rope and adapted to both Japanese and American styles well.
She was mine bro😅
LITA was Vince McMahon’s little rag doll. Lol that girl took more hits than some guys on the wwf/wwe roster and sold the moves better too. She was awesome favorite female wrestler for sure.
How can she not beat up guys but also be too stiff and strong????
Stiff can mean a couple of things. One means she hits a bit hard or it means she isn't very fluent or say like follows through the motions well
Chris was a joke of a wrestler that kept disappearing to do his failing rock band...then when he's out of money comes back to WWE. I don't hate the guy, I'm just telling the truth.
