"My mission was to completely reinvent who Chris Jericho was as a character and what Chris Jericho was as a performer and who Chris Jericho is as a performer," he said. "I've really been concentrating on doing things I've never done before and doing things completely different from before. I think it's part of the heat. People really aren't happy with the fact that I'm serious about no more Y2J... It's getting to the point where when someone calls me that I'm almost insulted by it because I'm so into this whole character that I've created." Jericho also commented on the "Redemption Song" reality show he'll be hosting on Fuse. "We started last week and it's going great," Jericho said. He noted that the concept of the show involves female singers who screwed up their past chances in the music industry due to drinking and drugs getting a shot at redemption.

The interview is roughly an hour into the show, but I recommend checking out the entire 10-year anniversary special which features interviews with Jerry Lynn, Brother Devon, and Rob Van Dam.
