Chris Jericho comedy coming to Shaw Action

But I’m Chris Jericho

Chris Jericho’s online comedy series “But I’m Chris Jericho” will be debuting in Canada on Shaw’s Action channel this month. The series follows a fictional version of himself trying to make it as an actor and nobody appreciating his past in wrestling.

Jericho also has a role in upcoming comedy Sharknado 3, as a ride attendant at Universal Studios.

“I’ve never seen myself as a wrestler, ever,” Jericho tells the Toronto Sun. “I’m an entertainer. That’s what I do.”

“I knew I would never be the biggest guy in the show, but I could have the biggest character, and the biggest charisma, the biggest personality, so that’s kind of where it all started,” he says. “Like – this is acting, play this character, play this part. So, I’m an entertainer. That’s exactly what I think of myself. I’m a showman. I’m a modern-day vaudevillian performer, basically.”
