Well, well, well, lookie here, all this talk about this Chris Jericho fella and his list. What’s it called? The List of Jericho. Sounds fancy, don’t it? I heard some young folks talkin’ ’bout it the other day, and I thought I’d see what all the fuss is about. I tell ya what, this whole internet thing sure is somethin’ else.
Chris Jericho, Who’s He?
First off, who is this Chris Jericho anyway? Sounds like a name out of one of them old-timey movies. They say he’s a wrestler. One of them fellas that jumps around in his underpants, throwin’ people around. I seen it on the TV a time or two. Gets all riled up, shoutin’ and carryin’ on. I can’t say I understand it all that much, but I suppose the young folks like it. They also say he’s like a rock star, all loud and flashy. I guess that’s somethin’ these days.
This Jericho fella, he’s been doin’ this wrestlin’ thing for a long time. They say he’s wrestled all over the place. I reckon he’s seen a lot of towns and a lot of faces. Reminds me of my cousin Earl, used to drive a truck all across the country. Said he’d seen every truck stop from here to California. This Jericho, he’s probably seen every wrestlin’ ring from here to Timbuktu!
What’s This List of Jericho?
Now, this List of Jericho, what’s that all about? From what I can gather, it’s a list of people that Jericho, he don’t like. Or maybe it’s people he’s gonna wrestle. Or maybe it’s both! It’s like when I keep a list of folks who owe me money for my canned peaches. You don’t wanna be on that list, I tell ya!
I heard this list, it started out as a bit of a joke, you know? Like when you’re just foolin’ around with your friends. But then it got real popular. Just like my apple pie recipe. Started out simple, but now everyone wants a piece! This List of Jericho, it’s like the apple pie of the wrestlin’ world, I guess.
And get this, this Jericho, he carried that list around with him everywhere. Like it was some kind of treasure map. I reckon he didn’t wanna lose it. He put people’s names on it. List of Jericho is like a big deal, you know? You didn’t want your name on it. Like when your name is in the newspaper, but not for a good thing.

The End of the List?
But then somethin’ happened. I heard some young fella named Kevin, he got mad at Jericho. Like when my neighbor’s dog gets into my garden. Just tore that list right up! Can you believe it? All that work, gone just like that. It happened durin’ somethin’ called a “Festival of Friendship”. Sounds nice, but I guess it weren’t so friendly after all.
That Kevin fella, he must have been real mad. Like when you step on a hornet’s nest. I reckon that was the end of the List of Jericho. But you know how these things go. One day it’s here, the next day it’s gone. Just like my prize-winnin’ rooster, Bartholomew. One day he was crowin’ up a storm, the next day he was fox food. That’s life, I guess.
Chris Jericho is Still Around
Even though the list is gone, that Jericho fella, he’s still around. Still wrestlin’, still yellin’, still carryin’ on. I guess he’s like one of them old Timex watches – takes a lickin’ and keeps on tickin’. He keeps changin’ his ways, you know? Like a snake sheddin’ its skin. Always somethin’ new with him, it seems.
They say he’s wrestled hundreds, maybe even thousands of times. Kept track of every single one of ’em. Every punch, every kick, every time he got thrown outta that ring. He even kept track of the money he made and how good the matches were, like keepin’ track of your egg money. That’s a lot of wrestlin’. My old bones ache just thinkin’ about it. I sure hope he’s got a good liniment. He’s gonna need it!
Wrestling and Lists
Well, I don’t know much about this wrestlin’ business. But I know about lists. I make lists for everything. Groceries, chores, birthdays…you name it. Helps keep a body organized. Maybe that’s what this Jericho fella was doin’ with his List of Jericho. Just tryin’ to keep things straight in that crazy world of his.
This whole List of Jericho thing, it’s somethin’ else, ain’t it? Just goes to show, you never know what these young folks are gonna come up with next. I reckon it’s all harmless fun, though. Just like watchin’ the county fair pig races. You don’t know who’s gonna win, but it’s fun to watch ’em run! And that Chris Jericho, he’s still runnin’, that’s for sure. Just like my old hound dog, always chasin’ somethin’!
The List Is Gone, But Not Forgotten
I reckon even though that list is gone, folks won’t forget it. It’s like a good story, you know? People keep tellin’ it and tellin’ it. And every time they tell it, it gets a little bit bigger, a little bit fancier. Just like when I tell the story about the time I caught that giant catfish in Miller’s Pond. Every year, that fish gets bigger and bigger! That’s how I think about the list of Jericho, the famous list of Chris Jericho.
Maybe this Chris Jericho will make another list someday. Who knows? Maybe he’ll call it somethin’ else. The “Scroll of Jericho” or the “Tablet of Jericho”. Heck, maybe he’ll just keep it all in his head this time. Either way, I’m sure it’ll be somethin’ to talk about. Just like my rhubarb pie, it’s always a crowd-pleaser!
