Jericho was born to Ted Irvine and Loretta Vivian Irvine in New York. His father Ted was an ice hockey player and was playing for the New York Rangers at the time of Jericho’s birth. He is of Scottish descent from his father’s side and Ukrainian descent from his mother’s side. Jericho holds dual American and Canadian citizenship. He attended Red River College in Winnipeg, graduating in 1990 with a diploma in Creative Communications.
Irvine’s interest in professional wrestling began when he started watching the local American Wrestling Association (AWA) events that took place at the Winnipeg Arena with his family, and his desire to become a professional wrestler himself began when he saw footage of Owen Hart, then appearing with Stampede Wrestling, performing various high-flying moves.
In addition, Irvine also cited Owen’s older brother Bret, Ricky Steamboat and Shawn Michaels as inspirations for his becoming a professional wrestler. His first experience with a professional wrestling promotion was when he acted as part of the ring crew for the first tour of the newly opened Keystone Wrestling Alliance promotion.
