Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Wrestling is now reporting that
Chris Jericho’s AEW contract has been frozen to compensate
for the time off he took early last year and remains under
an AEW deal.
Jericho’s contract was originally scheduled to expire on
January 1 but the former multi-time champion remained a part
of the AEW roster website even after that date.
The Canadian star is rumored to be on the way to WWE one way
or another, but with his contract frozen, it could be a
while before he shows up unless a deal is worked out for him
to leave.
Jericho has not been on AEW television since April, with his
last gimmick being part of The Learning Tree with Bryan
Keith and Big Bill.
He is currently in the United Kingdom touring with Fozzy
until February 21.
