6. The List Gets Its Due

Perhaps this column is already on it, but we’ll still be nice and go ahead and give credit to the List of Jericho as we just ink it in, man.

Chris Jericho’s list has been a great part of Raw the past couple weeks, with Y2J putting wrestlers, announcers, fans and cameramen on the list. His “You just made the list!” delivery is so perfect that fans lose it when he calls someone out. Jericho naturally hasn’t missed this point, so he relishes in leading fans on for a few seconds before finally delivering the line. And others have started playing along.

But we have to give some credit to Raw Commissioner Stephanie McMahon, who clearly didn’t want her name on the list while Jericho was writing on the list. However, once Stephanie gave him the possibility of a Universal Championship match at Hell in a Cell, Jericho quietly began scratching out a name on his list. It was subtle, but it worked really well if you were paying attention.
