It takes a lot of skill to prank someone for several months whilst also seeing them on a regular basis, but former WWE stars Christian and Davari had the perfect plan to prank Chris Jericho.

As part of the book Rumble Road: Untold Stories From Outside the Ring, Christian reveals that he pranked the former WWE Champion for several months by pretending to be a deaf fan.

The former WWE star noted that he was able to pull this off with the help of Davari by sending Jericho messages claiming to be a deaf fan called Gertrude who was a huge fan of his music even though she couldn't actually hear it.

“So for months and months, Chris was with his group Fozzy, and we pretended we were a deaf fan of him and his music from England named Gertrude and we’d contact him using this same deaf translating service. We said that we got his number, and even though we attended all his concerts and we couldn’t hear him actually sing, we just knew that he had a beautiful voice and we could tell that he was singing to me. We even went so far as to have Gertrude say that she told her mom about him and her mom told her it might be a long shot, but that she should go after him and try to make the relationship work. What’s funny is, Chris would come up to me and tell me what she’d said during the call and he’d ask me if I knew anything about this."

Several months later, Christian finally revealed that he was the man behind the messages and he claims that the former WWE Champion got quite a laugh out of the whole prank.
