Rumors are flying that Chris Jericho is coming back to the WWE. I thought this would be as good a time as ever to reminisce on some of Chris Jericho's greatest moments. There are a lot to choose from but I narrowed it down to my favorite 17 moments.

17. Ron Mysterio Jr.: Number One Contender
After Chris Jericho was booked in a match against Dean Malenko he would do anything he could to dodge the match. Chris Jericho finds a loophole, which is that he can give another a wrestler a match and if he wins he'll be number one contender. Chris Jericho gives a match to Rey Mysterio (except Jericho calls him Ron Mysterio). Rey Mysterio comes out and the wrestler clearly isn't really Rey Mysterio, but an impostor in the mask. Chris Jericho then purposely loses the match so that "Rey Mysterio" will be the number one contender and Chris Jericho will wrestle him for the title instead of Dean Malenko.

16. Dean-O Machino Suspended
In a classic heel move Chris Jericho got Dean Malenko (who Jericho often calls Dean-O Machino) suspended. Chris Jericho and Dean Malenko had a match scheduled but since the feud was very heated J. J. Dillon decided to make a stipulation. If either wrestler touches the other before their PPV match then he will be suspended and miss the wrestling match. Chris Jericho then started insulting Dean Malenko until Malenko attacks Jericho and thus Dean Malenko is suspended and Chris Jericho gets out of the match.

15. Conspiracy Theory
After Chris Jericho lost his Cruiserweight Title to Dean Malenko at Slamboree Chris Jericho started to claim there was a conspiracy against him. Chris Jericho said that everybody was in on the conspiracy and that he wouldn't leave the President J. J. Dillon alone until Chris Jericho was given the title back.

14. Dedication to Stinko Malenko
After losing to Chris Jericho, Dean Malenko (also known as Stinko Malenko to Jericho) decided he needed to take some time off. During Dean Malenko's hiatus Chris Jericho would bring his picture to the ring and dedicate every match to Dean Malenko. Sometimes Chris Jericho would even interview the picture.
