Published: Aug. 31, 2018, 6 a.m.

Would like you to know every last detail that went into the planning and launch of Chris Jericho\u2019s WWE debut? Like the story behind the Y2J countdown clock? Or the inspiration for his theme, \u201cBreak The Walls Down\u201d? Or what his finishing move was originally supposed to be called? Or maybe you\u2019d like to know who wrote the promo Y2J cut with The Rock on that first night of TV? Or what about Vince McMahon\u2019s reaction to Y2J\u2019s debut? Or maybe how he was treated in the locker room when he arrived? Or why Shawn Michaels warned him about The Undertaker? All those details and more are broken down and discussed with special guest Conrad Thompson (who also hosts \u201cSomething To Wrestle With Bruce Prichard,\u201d \u201c83 Weeks with Eric Bischoff,\u201d and \u201cWhat Happened When with Tony Schiavone\u201d).
