CHRIS JERICHO TALKS ABOUT DANCING WITH THE STARS

Chris Jericho had the following to say about wrestling vs. dancing in a new article on Digitalspy.com to promote ABC’s Dancing with the Stars:


“It’s funny because when there are a lot of things about [dancing and wrestling] that are similar,” Jericho said. “There’s a lot of leverage and weight distribution and balance. Then there’s performing in front of a live crowd, your marks, choreography and as a musician, following the beat. It’s not that foreign as it seems at first. The training’s really hard. It’s probably the hardest training I’ve ever done, but it’s not futile. There are moves in dancing that I’ve never done before – you’re turning your knee outwards, your elbow on the side. And hunching over – dancing’s very elongated, very regal. Your neck stretches, your shoulders are down. So I’m focusing on getting rid of those bad habits.”
