Chris Jericho is truly a veteran in the pro wrestling industry, whose career has spanned more than 30 years. He spent the majority of those years in WWE, where Jericho became a household name. That said, Jericho has now shared a never-before-seen interview from his early days.

The pro wrestling legend started his career in the early 90s, working in countries such as Mexico – honing his craft in a way that would end up helping his in-ring skills for his future matches.

Chris Jericho took to his Instagram and uploaded an interview of himself from his early days in pro wrestling, where he was 22 years old and competed in Mexico. Jericho noted that he called himself Corazon de Leon, which means Lionheart.

This is INSANE! I’ve never seen this! I was 22 years-old! A babyface in Mexico as CORAZON DE LEON with the Latin Lover, Tigre Canadiense!! Priceless memories!!
