At the Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights opening in Hollywood, former AEW World champion Chris Jericho tackled the rumors that he’s going back to WWE during an interview with The Daily Mail.
Jericho, who is under an AEW contract until the end of the year, said, “I’m not going anywhere for a long while. I’m still with AEW for right now.”
“Would I go back to WWE? I wouldn’t be opposed to it,” Jericho added, as speculation is rampant that come January 2026, he will be heading back after a seven-year stint with AEW. “We just have to see what happens.”
Jericho continued, “The best thing that can happen to wrestling is AEW and the fact that there are two huge promotions that you can choose from just makes it better for the guys, makes it better for the fans, and everybody in between.”
