Chris Jericho Reflects On His "Countdown To The Millenium" Debut On Raw In 1999

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Jan 21, 2018

The Cult of Whatever recently caught up with Chris Jericho to reflect on his "Countdown to the Millenium" debut on Raw. His debut took place on August 9, 1999, when the Countdown to the Millenium clock struck zero while The Rock was delivering a promo in the ring. Here is what Jericho had to say on the memorable debut:

"It was definitely one of the best debuts ever," said Jericho. "I came up with the idea of the countdown clock and Vince McMahon came up with the idea of having the clock end right in the middle of Rocks promo. I think that is the biggest reaction I had ever got, a lot of people knew it was going to me but there were also a lot of people that didn't have a clue.

"It was a different world back then, the internet wasn't like it is today, these days you would just go online and you can find things out right away but it wasn't like that then."
