Matt Hardy's Lake of Reincarnation might be something that allows people to go in and come out as completely different versions of themselves, but it cannot compare to the mind of Y2J.

The AEW Champion has re-invented himself so many times, that there is no point in even trying to count. From 'RAW is Jericho', to his ECW 'Lionheart' role, to the time where he called everyone 'Stupid Idiot', to the Best in the World at what he does, the Ayatollah of Rock 'N' Rolla, has been known by many names and many faces to the fans.

No matter which version of Chris Jericho you prefer, the man has played every role from the most lovable babyface to the man who was willing to injure Shawn Michaels' eye permanently. The depth he gives each of his characters makes sure that the fans are as committed to the gimmick as Jericho is himself.

Even with the small things that Jericho kept consistent, such as pretending not to remember the name of the person who was interviewing him, Jericho as a personality is truly a once in a lifetime performer.

The fans have hated him and the fans have loved him, but they have always paid attention when he has talked to them. Whatever your opinion of him, it is safe to say that wrestling is a better place with him in it, and his 'little bit of bubbleh'.
