“The Road Is Jericho: Epic Stories & Rare Matches from Y2J”
That’s the planned name right now for WWE’s new Chris Jericho DVD (his second), which has just gone up to pre-order here on Amazon.com for only $17.49. Get in early.
We have some new details to share on it. First up, “Monday Night War Vol. 1” has been pushed back and “The Road Is Jericho” is taking its place for March 10th release next year. That’s also the case in the UK – WWEDVD.co.uk will put out Jericho’s DVD on March 16th.
Additional information we’ve received tells us that the 3 disc DVD and 2 disc Blu-ray set will span Jericho’s career from ECW in 1996 through to WWE in 2014, a match compilation with the bouts hand-picked by the man himself and many of them never before released on DVD.
Exclusively below, read the official synopsis!
Multi-faceted entertainer Chris Jericho is the lead singer of a rock & roll band, a writer, and above all else, a WWE legend. This set includes several of Jericho’s greatest matches, with reflections and insight from the man who lived them. Jump in a limousine and ride with Chris as he shares his favorite stories with the WWE Universe while traveling across the country.
Chris Jericho revealed the project to be in the works in a “TweetSecret” video shot back in October, during which Jericho mentioned compiling a list of his matches. A limousine was shown in the background, in which he would later record interview footage with WWE.

New Chris Jericho dvd? Yeah bay-bay! Haha. I can’t wait for the listing, it should be good to the “rare matches” quote!
30% off for the dvds is a good discount, but it’s like paying the regular price but with free shipping. The wwe.com shipping prices are ridiculous; I took advantage of the $4.99 WMXXX price, yet it was $13 because of $8 shipping! Only time I’m ordering off of wwe.com is if there is a free shipping code/sale, until then.. I pass! 30% off is great at a retail store, not wwe shop!
I hear ya. They’ve had some good free shipping deals lately though, especially for Black Friday and the like. Maybe you missed that.
You can actually get 50% off. WWEShop is having a deal until tonight at midnight(Eastern time) where you get 20% off when you spend at least $40. So if you get $40 worth of the merchandise thats marked 30% off you can get an additional 20% off. I already tried it and it works.
I forgot to mention that with that promo code(SNOW) you also get $5.00 flat rate shipping in addition to the extra 20% off.
I have no interest in Jercho’s career past 2010!
How long before the inevitable b!tching about the Benoit matches not being included?
They’re NOT. Get over it. Why waste time complaining about it? There are plenty of matches that can and probably will be featured here.
I’m ready for the Daniel Bryan release of ‘Journey to Wrestlemania’ and the addition of some of his best matches over the last several years.
why waste time starting the talk..
oh.. and yes, I do NOT mind if Benoit would be appearing, cos Jericho did magic with Benoit the Wrestler..
but.. I totally understand, why the absence of one of the best wrestlers of all time on profile compilations..
you wanted it, you got it!
I completely agree. If it were a third party who put these dvd’s together for WWE and all WWE did was allow access to the material to put he projects together then yes, Benoit should or at least COULD be included. But as long as WWE has something to do with it, for as long as we are alive, Benoit will be axed from all the dvd’s unless he absolutely, 100% cannot be removed. If you wanna see Benoit, get the Network or start collecting.
True story (and this is actually real, not just a set up): I bought a sealed copy of Hard Knocks last year from EBay, I saw the listing on this site, and got it fro pretty cheap. However, once I got it in my hands and looked at it? Hell, that was all it took. It’s sitting, unopened, under my media center, collecting dust at the moment. That was nearly a year ago. Kept feeling, and still sometimes do, like I just bought something almost evil. I can watch his stuff on the Network when it just comes up, but I never choose to just watch him. There is a difference. At least in my eyes.
“…But Benoit the wrestler and Benoit the man are two completely different guys! He had brain damage! He had the mind of 150 year old man with alzheimers! It was the steroids! He was set up! He didn’t really do it! It’s all a conspiracy! There’s no proof! Someone broke in his house and killed him and his family! The Benoit I knew was a God! He would never and could never commit such a crime!”
So say the people who live in a fantasy world and are able to play make believe and lie to themselves or some other form of magical logic.
I guess, it depends how one views the likes of documentaries.. I for one, own and have watched the Benoit doc several times..never felt bad, and certaintly not having a feel for it as being evil..
the wwe docs are a mixture of real life and charachter profiling, with the latter being the most that fills these docs, as I see it.
The wrestlers we watch and enjoy in the ring performing, are charachters and to some extend, they also are charachters, when camera rolls shooting docs.
What Benoit the non-charachter did was the most horrible that mankind can do..
but, for me, it still can be seperated in to two sides of Benoit: the wrestling charachter that gave us performances like no one else..
and Benoit the real life human, that did a unforgiveable act on a June weekend in 2007.
Again, I can understand also, why the likes of Jericho on his profile sets would not want to have Benoit on it..if in fact that is for Jericho to descide, we’ll never know of course..
but it still does not eliminates the fact, that Benoit was one of the best wrestlers ever, that took risks and gave it all like few did..
so, yeah.. having collecting physical medias or subscriping to the Network at least gets one to experience and choose for him or her self to watch or skip his matches and segments.
I pray for the steel cage match against Bray Wyat will be on, to have that awesome dive Jericho did from the top. And since he got a Slammy for it – wheather the votes were legit or not – it would very much be in the Y2J spirit to have that match represent.
I doubt they can match or top the awesome Matrix-like artwork from the first compilation, but I am still excited for this one..especially now, when it is pushed to be released that early in the new year.
I always wished that his first one had made it to Blu-ray (it was DVD only), although streaming the documentary from it in HD now on the Network helps.
Roll on March.
I really wish they’d re-release some of those to Blu-ray with extra content as a buying incentive like they did with Lesnar’s set. Some of those really are worth going to Blu-ray. Jericho’s is one without a doubt along with many others.
-if- one day the physical media DVD/Bluray is to be erased from existence, my only wish is, that one last effort is made for bring out the 2008-2011 ppv’s on Bluray, that not yet have seen that release, and the re-releases of sets like Jericho’s on bluray too.
I do think though, that that is very very far away from being granted by Santa Vince
Yeah, I don’t see 2008-2011 PPVs releasing on Blu-ray that haven’t been. I remember Royal Rumble 2008 was suppose to be the first WWE Blu-ray but as the tradition with DVD, Wrestlemania was the first PPV to release on the new format, like WM15 was on DVD.
PPVs hardly even sell on DVD, so WWE probably knows there is no money in Blu-ray of those events – except Wrestlemania, Summerslam and Royal Rumble.
if someone with a close to direct pipeline to the wwe could advocate for re-releases of HD filmed shows on bluray, and convince them that there is in fact a market for it, cos the likes of HBK vs Y2J feud, the awesome No way out 2008 and One night stand 2008, and the spectacular Anything goes Iron man match from 2009 Bragging rights, need 1920×1080..and not just 9.99.. hint.. hint.. Wdn team 😉
A handful of people does not make a market. If WWE aren’t releasing current shows on blu-ray, don’t hold your breath for ones that are more than 5 years old.
will you tell Santa Vince from me, that he:
“…don’t be a DVD-Lemon…be a Bluray-Rosebud”
will ya, Mark..?! 😉
nah, I know..will problaly never happen.. maybe Silvervision could have had the balls to do it, but now a days, even Freemantle begins releasing HD filmed material on DVD only: Best of ppv’s 2014. 🙁
Stoked about the Chris Jericho Blu-ray!! Gonna pre-order it as soon as it goes up on Amazon Canada 😀
I can already see the WWE Night of Champions comparisons coming in, but either way that is some very VERY nice artwork.
ClearVision have a talent in taking TNA’s throwaway One Night Only events and making them look appealing.
Well, that’s exactly what I thought when I looked at that DVD cover. Obviously you thought the same thing since you brought it up yourself.
