    Does anybody know how long Chris Jericho did the whole Super Liger thing

    I was just wondering if anybody knew how long Chris Jericho did the whole Super Liger thing and did he ever face Jushin Liger as Super Liger

    As far as I know (and I am pretty sure I am right), it was only for one night. It was January 4th, 1997 at the Tokyo Dome, and he faced off against Koji Kanemoto. He did not like the mask though, since he was not used to wrestling in one. He even misses a few of his patented spots. He never wrestled Liger.

    Here is a pic of Jericho as Super Liger:

    Yeah, I heard that the gimmick didn't go over well with the crowd either and they decided to shelve it right away.
