The world is aware of the bushfire emergency in Australia and wrestling legend and all round great guy Chris Jericho is chipping in to assist.

Jericho enjoys a strong and passionate fan following down under for both his wrestling and his music ('Fozzy') rock band.

Chris Jericho wrestled a world class match against Hiroshi Tanahashi this past Saturday at New Japan's equivalent to 'WrestleMania', Wrestle Kingdom 14.

The multi-time champion and current AEW Champion is auctioning off the t-shirt he wore at the New Japan Pro-Wrestling supershow to help raise funds for those effected by Australian bushfires, which are the worse in the history of the land down under.

The auction has commenced, with all proceeds going to Victoria’s Country Fire Authority and the New South Wales Rural Fire Service.

Aussie wrestler, Gino Gambino, hit up Twitter with the news on Jericho’s goodwill and leadership.

Interestingly this was around the same time as All Elite Wrestling top brass Cody Rhodes announced he would donate 100% of the profits from his retro Cody t-shirt towards Australian bushfire relief.

The Media Man agency was quick to pound on the news from Cody, and is delighted to follow up or Double Down, if you will, by Jericho aka "The Painmaker". Jericho often plays a villain, but the cat is well and truly out of the bag about Jericho being a great bloke in reality.

Today @IAmJericho spoke to myself and @RobbieEagles_ about the devastating fires . Chris really wanted to help out all his fans in #Australia affected by these events, and has donated his WK14 ring worn T-shirt. ALL of the money will be donated https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0

 

The auction has six-days remaining, and you can view it here.

 

Jericho often plays the villain or heel, as its know in wrestling, but is really a great bloke! Ok, he's the Painmaker!

 

Chris Jericho is also the frontman of rock band Fozzy

I had an unused retro shirt design, I’ve decided to put it online!
