During the media scrum with reporters ahead of tonight’s
Death Before Dishonor show, AEW President Tony Khan put over
Jericho and said he would never be where he is today in AEW
without Jericho.
He also credited Jericho for buying Ring of Honor, saying
that without Jericho, he would have not been in a position
to do so.
“I’m very grateful to Chris. I think the world of Chris, and
I would love to have Chris back, and certainly he’s been a
great, great star for us since the very beginning of AEW,”
Khan said.
Jericho has been off AEW television for months but Khan said
that if the opportunity presents itself to have him back, he
would love to have him back.
“I think the world of him and Chris Jericho’s always in the
highest of standing with me and with AEW and ROH, where he
has been a great champion, a great ambassador, a great
leader, and a great friend to all of us…and Chris Jericho’s
a huge part of our companies here,” Khan continued.
Jericho recently “liked” a social media post about him going
back to WWE and even posted a photo of himself where he
seems to be in a private jet two days ago writing,
“#Contemplation.”
Jericho has been with AEW since its inception in 2019 but
seemingly fell out of favor with the fans this year,
prompting him to take a long sabbatical.
