Chris Jericho Says He Doesn’t Feel The Light Up Jacket Anymore – Refused To Wear It In NJPW

The current NJPW Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho recently was a guest on Wrestling Observer Radio. During the interview Jericho talked about his character, and what New Japan wanted him to wear.

Jericho revealed that New Japan wanted him to wear his light-up jacket when he came in, but Jericho told them he wasn’t feeling it anymore, and decided to go with another look instead.

Jericho said:

“When I did the Naito thing with the makeup and stuff I just when I worked with Kenny he’s such a crazy character I thought these shorts with sparkles and rhinestones on them it doesn’t match. The light-up jacket, I don’t feel them anymore.”

“When I went to do the Naito match in Osaka New Japan wanted me to wear the light-up jacket and I said I can’t. I don’t feel it anymore. They were like, ‘we really want you to do it.’ I’m like, ‘I’m sorry it doesn’t feel right.’”

“What felt right was wearing long black pants and you know putting some makeup on and a fricken fedora, I don’t know why it’s just what I felt like at the time.”
