New Chris Jericho Autobiography Coming This Year - Will He Turn Face?



There's a new Chris Jericho autobiography coming this year. Here's the info they're releasing about it -

A Lion's Tale documented Chris Jericho's journey from small-time dreamer to big-time superstar, from Winnipeg, Canada, to undisputed WWE heavyweight champion of the world. Having achieved his wildest dreams in A Lion's Tale, Chris Jericho's sequel kicks off just as the fantasy begins to unravel. Faced with endless internal politics on his rise to the top of the WWE company ladder, Jericho has to draw on the super-human resources that got him there in the first place. There are bruising encounters aplenty both inside and outside the ring. He reveals why he temporarily left WWE, includes the inside story of his time in Hollywood, and opens the can of worms that is life on the road with Fozzy. He also re-visits the premature birth of his twins and the pain of his mother's death, as well as the shock of Eddy Guerrero's and the Benoit family deaths. As upfront and outspoken as A Lion's Tale, the sequel is outspoken and direct as the man himself.

One thing I couldn't figure out is if this is getting released under WWE. I assume it must be, since he's currently under contract, but I'm not sure how that works since he's technically not an employee. Guess it depends on the contract. Some of the items that it says Jericho will discuss seem like they might not be ones WWE would want him talking about!

But then on the flip side, these items appear to be ones that would put Jericho in a positive light. Could he be turning face by the time this book gets released?

I would really think the part about him being held back and the internal politics are going to HAVE to deal with Triple H. So a big feud with HHH to coincide with the book could be awesome. Of course on TV WWE can decide to either make Jericho a sympathetic babyface, possibly explaining his heel turn after returning as him having to find a different way to the top to break out of the glass ceiling, or they can make him the whiny heel who unfairly targets HHH as the person who held him back.

Could be interesting! I got A Lion's Tale not too long ago but haven't read it yet, and now I think I'll have to schedule time to read it soon!

I loved his first book so I can't wait to see this one. I hope you're right about it tying into his storylines, that would be pretty cool. Thanks for the news!  2/7/10 10:58 AM
