January 27, 2025 by EJ Moreno

Wrestling legend Chris Jericho talks new horror film Dark Match…

If you’ve watched professional wrestling in the last 30 years, you’re bound to have seen Chris Jericho perform. Known for his reinventing styles and excellent promo skills, the wrestling icon took time away from the ring to enter the horror world.

Longtime fans know Chris Jericho loves horror, but with his new starring role in the Shudder film Dark Match, we see a new side of him. During our interview, we dive into horror deep cuts, his inspiration about The Prophet, and what film he’d double feature with this new Lowell Dean project.

A small-time wrestling company accepts a well-paying gig in a backwoods town only to learn, too late, that the community is run by a mysterious cult leader with devious plans for their match

Dark Match streams on Shudder from January 31st.
