Chris Jericho rises to #1 in Twitter trend
Categories: chris jericho , pro wrestling , smackdown , social networking , twitter , wwe |
WWE tag team champion Chris Jericho was propelled to the top Twitter trend position for a time Sunday evening, the apparent outgrowth of a deliberate fan drive to push his name on the microblogging service. Many of the Twitter posts that referenced Chris Jericho had nothing to do with him but simply substituted his name for Chuck Norris in a series of grandiose claims.
Jericho is the second WWE superstar in as many weeks to make the top position in the Twitter trends with Jeff Hardy having done so after winning the World title at the Night of Champions PPV. At least with Hardy's name though, the trend had some kind of initial outside justification behind it. Jericho's name was simply lifted up by a fan drive to game Twitter for their idol.
Jericho, who is a member of Twitter himself as IAmJericho, sent out a tweet late Sunday thanking fans for propelling his name to the top of the service. Jericho has over 35,000 Twitter followers.
