Chris Jericho is a guy who certainly knows how to make an entrance. In the summer of 1999, the WWE Universe wondered for weeks about a millennium clock that counted down on Raw. They received their answer on August 9 when the clock struck zero. Y2J appeared and audaciously interrupted The Rock. The confident new competitor introduced himself immediately as a Superstar who is not afraid to create a statement. As of the moment, the net worth of Chris is at $18 million.
Jericho was the son of Ted Irvine, a former NHL standout. He was born in Manhasset, New York and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Jericho became a wrestling fan at a young age and had his training at the Hart Brothers School of Wrestling. He was only 19 years old when he made his ring debut. Jericho started from the frigid armories of Canada and went on to perform all over the world in places like Japan and Mexico. He infused various international styles along the way.
Jericho left and returned to WWE on many occasions. He pursued acting, penned several books about his remarkable career and toured with his heavy metal band Fozzy. However, he always found his way home to show the world that he still has life left in the tank.
