Jericho returns to WWE (sorta)

[ASYLUMHAUSEN]

I know there’s a thread on the E forum but I figured it made sense to have e one here too

That’s...interesting

I'm sure I'm not the only one hoping Chris Jericho pulls a Ric Flair n TNA and gets himself fired so he can return to the WWE now he knows they remember he exists.

I enjoy Jericho in AEW and I’m hoping he uses this time to promote AEW and its success as much as he can.

What has he become, now that he's betrayed, everyone he's ever loved and pushed them all away?

Judas in his mind?

Obviously this was cleared by TK (atleast I hope so), but.. I really don't know if I like how it looks. It's almost like being married but going out for a catch-up dinner with one of your exes. That being said, I'm sure the podcast is gonna be fire. Hopefully Jericho can show a little bit of loyalty and bring AEW up by name, and tbh I think I can see that happening. No way do they get through the episode without addressing that elephant in the room.

Both Tony Khan and Vince McMahon gave the appearance their blessing.

Hope Steve’s been fully vaccinated.

Seems like a great idea to me. It's literally free publicity for AEW. Most of the talk is "wow an AEW guy is going to be on as podcast sponsored by WWE."

Would love to see this being a trade off: Jericho does the Broken Skull Sessions for WWE, Austin shows up as a surprise on a vignette or two if/when AEW decides they want to build up Brian Pillman Jr.

So far, Tony Khan doesn't really seem to actually have anything against WWE or Vince. AEW even made sure to schedule their tv show for a night WWE wasn't on, and at first had all their ppvs on Saturdays so they would never conflict with WWE ppvs. Tony Khans a huge wrestling fan and would probably work with Vince. Vince McMahon has always been the one who hates acknowledging the existence of other wrestling shows.

And now Austin is returning the favor and appearing on Talk Is Jericho.
