How Chris Jericho Lost Over $100,000 On Wrestling And Then Got It Back
It can happen to…well probably just Jericho. There are certain stars in wrestling who are always doing something different. For some reason, they do not stick with the norm and are constantly finding some way to reinvent themselves. It can be fascinating to see what they think of next, but that does not mean it is always going to work. That was certainly the case with one first’s try at an idea.
During a recent episode of his Talk Is Jericho podcast, Chris Jericho revealed that he lost six figures of money on his first Jericho cruise. The cruise, called the Rock ‘N’ Wrestling Rager At Sea, launched in October 2018 and featured a variety of concerts, wrestling and appearances, with Jericho footing the bill for paying everyone. The financial setup was changed for the second cruise, which allowed him to make up the loss and earn a profit. Jericho is planning his fourth cruise in the spring of 2022.
The cruise was certainly different. Check out how it has gone over the years:

Opinion: It’s great to see that Jericho got his money back, but the more interesting part here is seeing how many things Jericho can come up with. A wrestling cruise might not be the most popular idea in the world, but it is certainly inventive and something that you do not see very often. Jericho does know how to come up with some cool ideas and that was the case again this time.
What do you think of the cruise? What else could be featured on a future edition? Let us know in the comments below.
