During an interview with Unlikely with Andrian Hernandez, AEW President and CEO Tony Khan was asked about the status of former AEW World Champion Chris Jericho.
“First of all, I’m really grateful,” Khan started. “When I talk about people that have been here since the beginning and talk about that first show [Double or Nothing 2019] in Las Vegas, none of it would be possible without Chris Jericho, who has been instrumental in AEW from the very beginning.”
Khan continued, “I love Chris very much. And I would say that Chris is always a big part of AEW, and I think this promotion is here to stay. Chris Jericho’s a huge part of our history. And we’re really proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish, and Chris is an instrumental part of it.”
Chris Jericho was rumored to make his WWE return at the WWE Raw on Netflix 1-Year Anniversary “Stranger Things Night” special this past Monday night, however the show came-and-went, and Jericho was nowhere to be found.
