Chris Jericho was recently interviewed by Alicia Atout for AMBY Interviews. Jericho spoke on a wide variety of topics during the interview.
One of the most interesting parts was when Jericho spoke about ‘The List’. This is something that he made extremely popular over the past few years on WWE television.
Here is why Jericho says that ‘The List’ won’t be returning if he comes back to WWE (h/t to Wrestlezone for the quotes below):
“I hate to say it, but if I go back to WWE there won’t be a list. It doesn’t feel right anymore. You have to [reinvent yourself], so for me to walk out there and put someone on a list again, it just feels like “Oh, that’s so 2016.” It was a huge thing, people want to see it, but I can’t allow myself to not be creative, and that’s why I love working in New Japan”
He also explained why always changes things up:
“You’ll never be more over doing something the second time as you did the first. You can be DX until the cows come home, but you’ll never be as over as in 1997, so why do that? Do something new. Just using that as an example. That’s why I always change”
