Chris Jericho has been one of the most entertaining, hardworking and versatile performers in World Wrestling Entertainment for almost a decade. Finally WWE has honoured Jericho with a three-disc DVD set that not only shows off his near twenty years in the business, but also some of his greatest matches in Canada, Japan, Extreme Championship Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling and WWE.
The first disc includes a documentary on Jericho\’s life growing up in Winnipeg and leading to eventual rise to stardom in WWE. The home videos of Jericho as a child and the interviews from Jericho\’s dad and friends, give you a little bit more than what his first book told.
Jericho and Lance Storm\’s friendship and partnership is well documented, including Jericho\’s disappointment on training at the Hart Brothers school with no Hart brother. Although not as detailed as A Lion\’s Tale, there is a decent amount discussed on his time in Mexico, Germany, Japan and ECW. Joey Styles really helps emphasize how Jericho was an international star before entering the Land of Extreme.

His time in WCW is portrayed as his true rise to superstar status—the promos he was cutting and the feuds he was in were some of the best WCW television at the time. It is quite shocking how Eric Bischoff agrees that Bill Goldberg made a mistake in not wanting to wrestle Jericho at WCW\’s PPV World War 3. Goldberg is able to give his side of the story and in doing so shows that the real quarrel between the two still faintly exists today.
Jericho\’s WWE career is the lengthly portion of the bio, going through almost all his major feuds and storylines. Steve Austin, Vince McMahon and a number of current WWE superstars give insightful interviews on the multi-talented Canadian. Although there are major holes; no Triple H, no Rock, no Shawn Michaels and no Stephanie McMahon interviews, all who played big parts in Jericho\’s runs as World Champion.

A surprising amount of exposure is given to Jericho\’s metal band Fozzy. Fozzy is definitely needed when telling Jericho\’s life and feels rare since WWE DVDs rarely showcase other forms of entertainment in depth.
In the end, this is a DVD set die-hard Jericho fans have been waiting for and a treat for WWE fans not familiar with the rich wrestling history Jericho has already created. The matches may seem like a small sampling of what Jericho has done, but they\’re all DVD worthy. His match with Rey Mysterio, Ultimo Dragon, Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 19, are all must-see for any fan of pro wrestling.
