Chris Jericho – January 9, 2012 [Monday Night RAW]
OK that was embarrassing. I don't know what happened out there – that wasn't me that wasn't a lion it was more like a kitty - kat. I was actually planning on talking – but no. I had to go out there and cry like a little baby. That wasn't how it was supposed to go. Grrrr
My return was supposed to be phenomenal. But this was really bugging me. Actually the first week everything went great – I didn't want to say anything and I didn't – I just went out there and the crowd was crazy, and they had every reason to be – I came back, CHRIS JERICHO came back (also Rick the sign guy was there but that wasn't what they were crazy for…). And if they were gonna go all crazy with me just standing there no point in ruining the moment by talking… right?
But this week was different, I knew people would begin to lose interest – they shouldn't I mean I am Chris Jericho – but they did would and regardless I had to talk, I had to say it, but I couldn't I walked out there and I saw all the fans and that was it I was speechless (my tongue had been gotten by a hamster ). I wanted so badly to tell them everything – the whole reason for my return (it would after all change the world as they knew it) – but I couldn't I had a break down.
This was me – yes I had dabbled in other forms of entertainment and Rockstardom was everything I thought it would be and more – but all my life this was what I wanted and this is where I belonged. And I was finally back; the fans may have been extremely happy to see me back but all of their joy put together couldn't even begin to express how happy I was to be back. I was back where I was supposed to be – where I was born to be. I can't let stupid stuff like this interfere with my career and my destiny (©Alberto Del Rio).
I have to do it, sooner or later, I will be the one to say it – everyone will have to know. I don't know what happened out there tonight but I refuse to allow it to happen again.
So hopefully next time – there is so much to be said and I hope that I will be able to say it all.
