6 takeaways from Chris Jericho's The Words of Jericho

#1 Jericho didn't want to put Fandango over but he's glad he did

Fandango beat Y2J at Mania

So, this one isn't a huge surprise - but new details emerged about Jericho's reluctance to put over Fandango.

Before Chris Jericho knew who his opponent was at WrestleMania 29, he thought he was going to go up against Ryback or even Wade Barrett in a story of going for his tenth Intercontinental Championship - and instead, he was paired with a man he believes Vince based on himself in Fandango.

Y2J had previously been on Dancing With The Stars and McMahon loved the idea of a heel dancer in WWE. Jericho said he wasn't embracing the idea until a conversation with Undertaker about having to do your deeds came up, with a certain Nathan Jones being mentioned.

"This story starts with Fandango and ends with Keith Richards."

Jericho said you can't argue with Taker, and he's glad he didn't. He did everything he could to put over Fandango, and Vince rewarded him handsomely.

Y2J said his loss to Fandango earned him the same money as the previous year's match with CM Punk in one of the main events, and bought him a favour from Vince - getting his segment moved to later on the card the next night on Raw so he could meet Keith Richards from the Rolling Stones across town!

He said Vince loved the Stones and AC/DC, and Jericho being in his good books meant Mr McMahon was more than happy to oblige, let him meet one of his heroes and come to Raw later for his segment with his previous night's opponent.
