Chris Jericho evidently spent part of his evening last night watching some of the Rock’s matches on YouTube. Jericho then took to Twitter to say that the Rock was one of the best ever inside a wrestling ring.
“Going down the @YouTube rabbit hole tonight and one thing is clear….he may be the biggest box office draw in Hollywood today, but my goodness, let’s not ever forget how GREAT @TheRock was in the ring. One of the best ever …” Jericho Tweeted.
This drew a response from The Rock himself, who offered up the following reply to Jericho.
“This means a lot, thank you brother for these words. You’re one of the GOATS and man the fun we had electrifying the millions around the world. What an honor. And I still owe you a receipt for that tobacco spit incident,” Rock Tweeted in response.
Chris Jericho and the Rock faced each other in singles action 9 times throughout their careers. 6 of those matches were for a world title, with the world title changing hands between them in half of those encounters. In total, Jericho leads the all-time singles series between the two with 5 wins to Rock’s 4.
