Chris Jericho reveals that got a magician’s license for fireball spots in AEW
During an appearance on the AEW Unrestricted podcast, Chris Jericho talked about his “wizard” nickname and how he needed a magician’s license to throw fireballs in the city of Las Vegas, NV…
“I had my magician’s license. You need that to throw a fireball in the vicinity of Vegas. The problem was it didn’t come in time, so we had to go outside the boundaries of Vegas to throw the fireball at the stagehand. ‘Guys, don’t tell me why it’s not going to work.’ My internal, ‘(Wayne) Gretzky stay ahead’ is we needed to throw another fireball today. It’s at the peak. Next week would be too late. We figured it out, made it happen, the kid took the fireball, and now it’s a thing. I did it one more time with Shota Umino. That’s it. I never have to throw it again. I can fake it, I can tease it, or maybe I do. It’s now part of Chris Jericho canon.” (quote courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
