I wrote a GQ piece about Chris “Lionheart” Jericho, maybe my favorite professional wrestler ever, and the fucking strange and awesome things he’s doing right now. The fact that I get to write wrestling shit in GQ is some sort of life validation.
This is awesome. (I’ve actually been watching the clips of Jericho’s appearances online, so strongly do I <3 <3 <3 Jericho, and they are just as crazy as Tom describes.)
Absolutely obsessed with this article, need to look up YouTubes of these moments and man, I sort of want to watch Rumble now. (My brother used to love wrestling when he was 10 and I was 13ish and used to put me into headlocks and such moves all the time until I learned that if I bit him, he’d stop. Also then I’d dress him up like a girl and make him act in my plays, so it was a decent trade-off.)
