- How Mickey Rourke challenged Jericho to a match, then backed out
- Jericho’s award-winning feud with Shawn Michaels, which culminated in Jericho knocking out Michael’s wife in the ring . . . for real
- His escape from the 2010 Icelandic volcanoes in a broken-down, European rental-car shuttle
- His encounters with Bob Barker, Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, Al Sharpton, and Mike Tyson; and his on-again-off-again relationship with WWE chief Vince McMahon
