Jericho asks Jacobs who he’s a fan of on WWE’s current roster. He says he’s a huge fan of Braun Strowman and he expects big things from him in the future. He’s also a huge fan of Seth Rollins, Cesaro and Roman Reigns. He considers Cesaro to be a very underrated performer, and he loves the work of both Rollins and Reigns as well.
Jericho asks Jacobs if there were ever any moves that he wasn’t a fan of taking. He admits that he’s not a fan of Powerbombs since he’s a big man, and the slightest hiccup with a Powerbomb could have catastrophic results.
Jacobs comments on his original unmasking in WWE. He points out that he felt he had accomplished everything that he could under the mask and it was time for a change. He and McMahon had spoken about it for months in advance and McMahon was in agreement with Jacobs, but there were some other people backstage who were of the mindset, “If it ain’t broken, why fix it?”
Jericho asks Jacobs if there are any career highlights that stick out to him. He mentions that working with Pete Rose, his first WrestleMania match against The Undertaker, the Inferno match against Undertaker, and the First Blood match with Steve Austin all stick out as highlights to him.
