Chris Jericho will defend his Ring of Honor World Championship in New York on Friday… and the self-proclaimed “King of New York” talks TMZ Sports he is prepared to go all out in his main match against Matt Cardona!!
Babcock caught up with the legendary wrestler ahead of the ROH Final Battle PPV – a showdown that Jericho believes is the greatest opportunity his opponent has ever had in his career.
“Win, lose or draw, this is the biggest stage he has been on in a long time,” he said. “I expect a great match from him. But he knows what to expect from me, one of the best of all time as world champion in the main draw.”
“That’s a motivated Chris Jericho, that’s a dangerous Chris Jericho. I think I’m a little crazier now than ever.”
Even though he’s ready to put on a show for the fans in just a few hours, we asked the 54-year-old after everything he’s accomplished over the years: what else can be crossed off the list?
For him, it’s all about helping create memories for the people who tune in.
“If you look at the facts and figures, there’s really nothing left for me to accomplish,” Jericho said. “If you just want to continue to enjoy what I do and create cool moments for people to remember, to cheer for or cheer for, whatever it may be, then that’s really what I have yet to achieve, and that is on an evening basis.”
“I don’t take anything lightly, and I don’t call or call anything.”
So expect a barn burner when these two face each other in the ring!!
