WWE part-time superstar Chris Jericho spoke with the Shining Wizards Podcast explaining why Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker at WrestleMania is the best professional wrestling match he's ever seen, his own personal best match, touring with Fozzy, performing in wrestling vs.music, and more. Here are some highlights.
Chris Jericho on the Best Match Ever:
"The favorite match that I've seen was Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker part one at WrestleMania. I think that's the best match I've ever seen in my life."
CB's Analysis: I agree 100 percent. Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker I at WrestleMania 25 was the best match I've ever seen throughout my years of watching pro wrestling, and it was also fascinating to hear HBK and Jim Ross talk about this during the Ross Report podcast interview with Michaels this past week.

Chris Jericho on His Own Personal Best Match Ever:
"It's hard. It varies. Again, gun to the head, it's probably Jericho vs (Shawn) Michaels at No Mercy, ladder match for the World title. And it's not just because the match itself, which I think is the best ladder match of all time, but because of the circumstances surrounding it and the circumstances that got us there.
We had a seven month amazing angle which was one of the greatest of all time in the WWE that was supposed to be a one show only feud but just organically grew into this amazing piece of storytelling that culminated in a ladder match for the World title, which neither one of us were ever supposed to have when the whole thing started. So it was a really cool moment to show what you can do with the right storyline and with the right performers."
CB's Analysis: That Chris Jericho vs. Shawn Michaels feud was absolutely epic and I agree it was one of Y2J's most standout storylines across his entire career.

Chris Jericho on Wrestling vs. Music:
"You do need a little bit of luck, but it's all hard work, dedication, sacrifice and passion. You have to believe in what you're doing. You have to know that sometimes it's going to be roses and sometimes it's going to be crap. It's like that with wrestling when I first started and to wrestling now even.
It's funny because sometimes we'll do a Fozzy show and you get 100 people there and people say how can you work in front of 100 people with Fozzy and you just came from working in front of thousands with WWE. Well, you know, not all WWE shows are sold out either. You can go to Greenville, South Carolina on a Saturday and have 1,500 people in a 20,000 seat arena and then you have WrestleMania that's got a sold out 70,000 stadium crowd. It's the same with Fozzy. Sometimes it's not a good show or a good crowd. One week we are playing for 100 people then the next week we're playing for 80,000 people on the main stage."
